Keeping Products Related When Cross-Selling and Up-Selling

Cross-selling and up-selling are great ways to promote the products in your online store, giving your visitors a wider selection of items to choose from and possibly making you more money.

When attempting to cross-sell and up-sell, make sure that the products you are promoting are in some way related to what your visitor is looking for. When your visitor searches for a particular item you gain valuable knowledge as to what interests that person has and need to use that to your benefit.

It does no good to promote ballet shoes when your visitor is searching for golf clubs. You want to promote other items that the client would be interested in, such as golf balls, bags, tees, or apparel.

If you bombard your visitors with a myriad of products that are not relevant to what they are searching for, your visitors are more likely to ignore your suggestions and not notice a product that they could potentially be interested in.

Cross-selling and up-selling are integral parts of creating a successful online store. Making sure the products you promote to your visitors are related to what they are searching for will increase your bottom line and keep your visitors coming back.
