From selling your first digital product, all the way to a full-blown online Shop & booming e-commerce sites!
Welcome, my friend, to the wonderful world of digital & physical products!
If you’ve found your way to this video training, I’m going to safely assume that you fall into one of the two follow groups:
GROUP 1: The Product Newbie
You know what would be nice? Making a few extra bucks every month by leveraging a resource/template that you’ve already already created.
Maybe you’re a service provider and you’d love to sell a digital/physical product (or two) on the side to compliment your other offerings. Maybe it’s a template pack, a ready-made resource, a fill-in-the-blank feature - whatever makes sense to your biz & website, but your creative juices are already flowing.
You figure that if you’ve got the goods sitting around, why NOT set them up for anyone to get? And look, if things take off and the “passive income” starts coming through 24/7 as your products start selling themselves on auto-pilot, that’s just icing on the cake :)
If you are a Product Newbie, then you probably want someone to show you HOW to sell products on your Squarespace website. You want to learn how to set up a basic shop, get your products “out there” for potential customers to enjoy, and make sure that they’re SEO-friendly from the start!
GROUP 2: The Growth-Minded Product Creator
Up next, we’ve got the Growth-Minded Product Creator.
You’ve already got a few (digital or physical) products up and running on your Squarespace website - sure, the basics are covered and you’re making a few sales here and there…. but things could be better LOL! 🤣
You’re stuck in the dreaded feast/famine launch cycle when instead what you’d really you like is for steady sales to come in on their own, not just whenever you send out a promo email to your list.
There’s no doubt that your products are fantastic… but you’re having trouble getting them in front of paying customers! You KNOW that your dream people are out there (hello, literally billions of people use the internet every day), and now it’s time to show up online and get in front of them when they’re doing a Google search.
Growth and increased sales are the name of the game here.
To put it bluntly, you’ve got to polish the turd if you want to make bank ;)
Your next step is to improve the existing products that you sell on your Squarespace website, so that you can reach more of your dream customers and make more sales!
dream customers are everywhere, but they’ve got to find you first!
I know how you’re feeling because I was in your shoes just a few years ago.
It takes a lot of time, effort and money to get your business and website up and running. Adding digital/physical products to the mix can definitely pay off BUT there is a steep learning curve!
Sure, you could take a stab at it on your own, set up a few products on your Squarespace website and hope for the best.
That’s one option.
But, I’ll tell you from experience, it’s going to be an uphill climb.
📣 📣 📣 Your dream customers can’t buy from you if they can’t find your products online. 📣 📣 📣
Anyone and their cat can slap up a basic product page on Squarespace, but that’s not enough.
You have to go a step further and make a killer product pages and descriptions that speak to your dream customers, clearly outline your goods AND actually shows up in Google search results!
First of all, your target customer has to find their way to your product page. When they finally get there, they should feel completely seen & understood, like you “get” their problems & pain points or you know how much joy they’re gonna get from your trinkets, and it’s a no brainer that they want to buy from you asap.
It doesn't matter if your products are digital or physical either - the point is that you MUST have effective product descriptions & pages for your items on your Squarespace website.
And for best results? Those product descriptions & pages should be SEO-friendly (so that people can actually find it through a Google search) AND focused on conversions to drive sales (aka “buy now”).
Here’s a look at your current product descriptions & page:
“ummmmmm I don’t have one yet 😇”
you took a stab at building & designing it on your own #diy #doneisbetterthanperfect
you followed an outline in a random "what to put on a product page" blog post
you included the basic info you think your customers want to know…. but honestly, it could be better
you added in a few pics to mix things up with *~visual content~*
Ok yes that’s better than nothing! Who knows, you could bring in a sale or two from that alone - stranger things have happened!
But, it's time to face the facts.
It's not enough to create a basic product page and think that "if you build it, they will come & buy".
LOL no, sadly the internet doesn't work that way!
