Any successful brand in this world, any popular product, has reached the level at which it stands now through professional, on-point sales techniques. On the beauty market, competition is constantly high, with new cosmetics being developed every week. Whether you’re selling Neora products or anything else, you’ll need to know how to do it, and do it well. Consider the factors involved and use them to your advantage.
Pay Attention to Your Client
We often hear sayings such as "the customer is our boss". Regardless if that’s true or not, they’re still the ones buying, spending money on products and services we present. So we’d better make a good impression.
First of all, you must try to understand that not all customers are the same. Some will be totally open to hear about your skin care products, while others aren’t interested at all because they never purchase any. And that’s okay. Pitch your proposal and be ready to take no for an answer. A customer who’s willing to buy anti-aging creams won’t have a second thought, even if your product is more expensive than those on supermarket shelves.
Before you even think of your product presentation, listen to the client. It’s the only way you’ll find out what they need and would buy. Ask customers what effects they wish for, what they expect from an ideal product and their inner motivation for making a purchase.
Adapt your sale according to the information you’ve just gained. Tell the client exactly what your product can do for their specific needs. This could also be a good moment to upsell, add another cream to the offer they initially asked for. Let them try it on and put some emphasis on the results it brings.
Have the Product in Mind at all Times
Frankly speaking, there’s no chance of making a successful sale unless you know your product inside out. You should be prepared to answer, literally, any kind of question. Ingredients, fragrance, side effects, you name it. Even try it on yourself first!
Always keep the presentation short and simple. Don’t focus on the chemical process and fabrication techniques, most people don’t care about that. If they do, they’ll ask. Keep the talk around benefits, how soon they become visible and how they manifest.
Be enthusiastic about your lotion, anti-aging cream or whatever it is you’re selling. If you don’t believe in this product, neither will potential customers. If you’re unsure whether it’s worth it, people will read right through you. It’s best if you can make a choice regarding the brand you’ll sell. You could be more successful when working with a favorite.
Use the All-Mighty Internet Wisely
So much is done through social media and websites these days, one can’t simply ignore them. In case you don’t consider yourself good with technology, now is the time to start learning. In this current world, you won’t survive, or at least won’t make a profit without it.
Post regularly on various platforms and you’ll build an audience in no time. Social media allows you to do anything. You could pay for advertising to make your skin care products reach more people. You could make a video in which you or a friend try on cosmetics. Maybe even record your progress with an anti-aging cream over a few weeks of regular use.
Contact e-commerce platforms, most of them sell anything, so your products could have their own page. Another option is reaching out to specific websites, which only focus on beauty products provided by different brands. You could collaborate with beauty blogs or build one of your own, to create more publicity.
In case you have a website, make sure it’s easy to use and navigate through. You want clients to find information and the buying page in just a couple of clicks. Give them the option to sign up for a newsletter and find out about new products as soon as you have them in store.
Adapt and Conquer
Make your skin care products available in as many places as possible, not just online, but physically too if you can. Don’t just pitch sales to individual customers, but approach shops as well. Retailers and distributors can become your greatest friends.
Also, attending conferences and events in the beauty industry is a good idea. If you’re going to give a presentation there, construct it in a creative way. Don’t fill up your slides with text and read off them. Pair your speech with images that illustrate it and relate to potential customers. Graphs are fine but don’t overdo it, as nobody cares about numbers that much. And, even if you’re not a speaker, events like these are great for networking, building new connections in this field of work.
Remember, every time you’re making a proposal, underline the popularity of your merchandise and how everyone wants it. This picture of great products running out will trigger the desire of not missing out and will increase the odds of people buying them. That, and a few happy customer testimonials should do the trick.
No one is an expert when first starting out. But having great products such as those anti-aging creams developed by Neora could give one a good place to begin. Make it a point of not giving up. All famous salespeople went through a lot of rejection before reaching the point they’re at now. You could be at the top sometime soon too.
