Where do you find people who are ready to buy a service or product?

Question

thank you.

Answer 1

You can post ads at Craigslist, USFreeAds and other classified ad sites online, as well as in your local newspapers.

You can also visit forums, blogs and social networking sites (like MySpace) and leave your website url in your signature file so that people who are looking for your product or service can visit your website.

Answer 2

Well i sell a valuable product and my "salesgirls" find customers on street corners.

You will find customers where there is demand.

Answer 3

It depends on what it is.  Different products will attract different people.

Answer 4

People who are ready to buy a product or avail of a service generally go to online marketplaces.  Examples of them are:

EBay:  for tangible products like clothes, shoes, car accessories, etc.

Craiglist:  For products and services that are more local like furnitures (heavy to ship) and local services like babysitting.

GAF, Scriptlance, etc:  For people looking for online services like copywriting, website design, etc.

Forums:  Forums usually have a marketplace section where members of the community can go to when looking for products and services.

Online directories/yellowpages:  Yup just like in the real world when we used to thumb over yellow pages looking for plumbers, repairmen, etc.  There are online directories/yellowpages where you can register your site.

The more important question however, is

How do people ready to buy products and services find YOU?

Since a large number of people type in the products and services they want to buy directly into the search engines, the best way to find these people is to rank high in the search engine results.  

If you have a website where your products and services are showcased there are several options you can look into to drive people who are ready to buy products and services into your site.

PPC Advertising:  You pay other people or companies to drive traffic to your site by having your ad displayed in their webpages.

SEO:  Search engine optimization increases the rank of your website in search engine results when people type in your product or service category in their search engine,  Higher ranking in the results page means more traffic and more customers.

GoodLuck!
