TWO TYPES OF PERSUASION
Every page of the website should encourage:
1. Directing the visitor to another page
2. Persuading them to take the next step in your sales cycle. Email contact
Form submitted
Phone call
In store visit
This needs to be done in both the design and the content
![Page 51: Conversion Architecture - Toeristen of klanten?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55527b99b4c905b4598b4ae8/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
TAKING ACTION
If you want a customer to take an action, then you must explicitly tell them to take that action. Otherwise you are leaving it to chance.
This must be done
on every page of the website!
![Page 52: Conversion Architecture - Toeristen of klanten?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55527b99b4c905b4598b4ae8/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
THE NEXT STEP
Numerous sales are lost every day because a sales person simply does not ask the customer for the sale
The same is probably true with your website

SUMMARY
Understand who your customers are
Market directly to their need or problem
Show them what they need to see
Give them an offer they can’t refuse
Tell them how to take action
![Page 66: Conversion Architecture - Toeristen of klanten?](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022081519/55527b99b4c905b4598b4ae8/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
CONCLUSION
The websites that achieve this will exponentially grow in sales while the sites that don’t will ultimately fail to those who do.
The real power of the internet is in its ability to market directly to individuals, by giving them the information that they need, when they need it.
