eBay - even if your company sells over a million dollars worth of products a month eBay can help you bring in a little bit more. A great way to drive extra traffic to your site is to set up your user id with your site's address. Now the only way I know how to do this on eBay is by putting your web address in between asterisks,Got Sales? Articles for example my site address is http://www.laplounge.com so my eBay user id would be *laplounge.com* by doing this eBay users who see your id will be curious and visit your site.

Sponsor an event - Depending on your budget you can sponsor just about any kind of event. One that I really like is to contact a local school and sponsor a drawing contest. The winner can get a gift certificate or even better a gift certificate and a t-shirt or hat with your company’s logo on it. If you contact a local newspaper you can have the wining drawing printed in the newspaper. Since you are sponsoring the contest your contact information will be printed, so potential customers will be able to find your goods and services.

Start an affiliate program - This one will produce huge sales for you. No matter how much traffic your website brings in, you will be able to sell more with an affiliate program. These are great; you only pay a commission if someone actually sells your product. By setting up an affiliate program you can have a huge sales team that will do their own marketing to produce sales for you. One of the best affiliate a model that I’ve seen in a long time is from www.allposters.com they really do just about everything to help their affiliates sell as much as possible.

I hope that these ideas will help you boost your web sales. Remember even if you think that you've done everything possible to increase your sales, there is always something else that you have not thought about. The most important thing is to enjoy yourself and always keep an eye open to new ideas.
