How To Teach Your Customer About Your Product

Educating your customers about the products that you are selling online is one of the best ways to teach them to buy from you. The more you know about your products, the easier it is to show potential customers how they can use the product that you are selling. If your customers do not know how to use your product, they will become dissatisfied with your e-commerce business. You don’t want to take the risk of losing them to your competition because they believe that your products do not work.


Here are some ways you can teach your customers to buy

e-Learning Create your own e-learning training for your customers. Brand your training modules in the corporate colors and overall look and feel of your online business. Provide your potential customers with an engaging and professional product learning experience with your online store.

How To Sessions These sessions are little “teasers”, that give just enough information to entice customers to engage in something of interest with your online business that is educational to them. You can use your imagination and come up with something great. A furniture store might teach customers how to brighten their decor and arrange fabrics together, an online clothing store might teach customers how to create an expensive runway look for under $100. All of these will draw in your potential customers by creating a fun learning experience to teach them about what you are selling online.

Newsletters This marketing tool can build relationships with your customers if it is used properly. Do your research and learn what your target audience is interested in, and give them the information they need. Teach them how they can use your product or service to improve something in their daily lives or business. A loose bead business might give tips on how to make necklaces as gifts and simple do-it-yourself hand knots — implying that the customers will buy their beads and tools from your online business.

Post Articles on Social Media Sites and Blogs Offer how-to tips that encourage customers and prospects to read them. By spreading new tips all the time on various social media platforms, you encourage them to look for your latest offering. Also, YouTube is a great way to show a customer exactly how to use your product through video.

All of these undertakings involve a lot of hard work and commitment, and a reoccurring newsletter or Blog posting will help lock you into a regular schedule. These efforts will not go unnoticed as long as they: give customers ideas and confidence, inspire them and excite them, and make their buying decisions easy for them. By building customer understanding you will increase customer satisfaction and improve customer retention for your e-commerce business.
