The average sale is the amount of money a visitor spends on a typical purchase from you. To increase your profits, you need to increase your average sale amount. You do this by encouraging your customers to spend more money each time they shop. All businesses are engaged with customers at a certain level of revenue. Ongoing, consistent efforts must be employed which help customers do business with you at a higher level of revenue.Most businesses limit their contact with customers to the area of service or products in which the customer originally expressed interest. You have already established a relationship, so why not utilize that relationship to its fullest? This is done by making certain that the customer is aware of all additional products or services that you have available. This is sometimes referred to as merchandising. There are a huge number of merchandising techniques. Let’s look at some of the more common ones:1. Cross-Sells – related products or services to a visitor when they are viewing or buying a product or service from your website. (If your visitor is buying a hammer, then you might want to display a number of different types of nails)2. Up-Sells -a more advanced or expensive product than the one that is being considered. (If your prospect is buying an iPod Shuffle, you might try and upsell by displaying a full iPod or iPhone)3. Volume Discounts – offer a cheaper price or a bigger discount as an incentive for a bigger order. You are actively providing an incentive for your visitors to buy in bulk and thus spend more money ‘up front’.4. New In Stock – new items that have “just arrived.” This can be great for “early adopters” who love to try out anything that’s new and always be on the leading edge.5. Package Deals – combine a number of items into a package deal. Offer a special discount if the customer buys certain items as a ‘package’. (Think of fast food meals where they package up a burger, fries and a coke)6. Free Shipping With All Orders Over A Specified Dollar Amount – encourages your prospects to top uptheir orders to ensure that they get the free shipping. 7. Free Gift With All Orders Over A Specified Dollar Amount – like free shipping, it encourages prospects to spend more to get something free.Be sure to use a gift that has a high-perceived value, but costs you very little.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. QUESTION:
    On average how much does foundation repair cost?
    We have one corner of our house that has already been repaired by the previous owner, but now the grout outside is getting cracks in it again. That’s the only area of the house that has problems. We are going to get professional estimates, but I’d like to hear input from others.
    My husband has looked at the foundation from where he can and the slab is NOT cracked, so perhaps it is just cosmetic.

    We live on that black land soil which cracks during the summer.

    • ANSWER:
      It is not uncommon in Texas for houses to have concrete slab foundations with cracks at the corners. This is not generally associated with an actual cracked slab but is due to stress at the corners. This can be cosmetically repaired if you like for 0 or so per corner but may not last long. You can even make the repairs yourself.

      If the foundations is truly cracked and you have walls that are also cracked and/or doors which will not close properly, then might you have more serious problems and need professional help. The average foundation repairs are in the range of ,000 to ,000 depending upon the type of repairs required, how deep they have to dig around your house, the number of pilings they have to place into the ground, etc.

    • ANSWER:
      Deport illegal immigrants.

      Democrats in Congress ignore congressional reports that prove illegal immigrants put minorities out of work. Democrats also removed E-Verify from the stimulus bill. E-Verify makes sure only people legally here in the U.S. can be hired for work. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090213233052AALISd5

      1) “Illegal Immigrants Take Jobs from African-Americans”

      “Mass Immigration vs. Black America
      Statement of T. Willard Fair ” http://www.house.gov/apps/list/press/ca50_bilbray/morenews/05142007.shtml
      And in 2007 “Democrat politicians refused to allow an African American man to testify as an expert witness in front of the Democrat controlled immigration committee….Republicans then setup a special committee so the concerns of the man could be addressed”

      2) 97% of illegal immigrants taking jobs away from Americans (only 3% work in farming)
      “While 3 percent of unauthorized workers are employed in agriculture, 33 percent have jobs in service industries and substantial shares can be found in construction and extractive occupations (16%) and in production, installation and repair (17%).”Pew Hispanic Center Offers Fuller Portrait of Unauthorized Migrants ”

      “Latinos entering the country between 2000 and 2004 were hired to fill more than one-third of all new jobs in the United States last year according to the Pew Hispanic Center.”

      4) Illegal immigrants are not needed to pick vegetables. Growers hire illegal aliens to maximize profits. It is much cheaper to hire illegal aliens than to buy one tomato harvester that can harvest 40 tons of tomatoes an hour.
      Farmers found out it is less expensive to hire foreigners and then have taxpayers pay for foreigners costs to local governments. That dramatically increases profits for farmers.

      5) The price of lettuce will stay the near the same after illegal immigrants are deported. Even if we pay farm workers an hour it would only increase the cost of lettuce by 14 cents.
      “The average “consumer unit” in the U.S. spends a week on fresh fruit and vegetables, less than is spent on alcohol, according to Martin. On a head of lettuce, the farm worker gets about 6 or 7 cents, roughly 1/15th of the retail price. Even a big run-up in the cost of labor can’t hit the consumer very hard.

      6) ” House Judiciary ranking member Lamar Smith, Republican-Texas, called the decision to remove the E-Verify requirement “outrageous” and “a gross disservice” to U.S. citizens and legal immigrant workers. “It is a simple matter of accountability,” Smith said. “If the goal is to create jobs and stimulate the American economy, then is it too much to ask that the jobs go to U.S. citizens and legal immigrant workers?” Smith pointed to an analysis from the conservative Heritage Foundation that the stimulus bill would create jobs for about 300,000 undocumented workers without the E-Verify requirement.” http://www.govexec.com/story_page.cfm?articleid=42050&dcn=todaysnews
