Join recognized Turbify experts and authors Istvan Siposs, Rob Snell and Michael Whitaker and fellow Turbify merchants for this exciting new seminar.

During this intensive 2-day event (one day class + half day lab) we will be focusing on strategies and tactics to help you run a more profitable Turbify.

Topics covered include:

  • Best practices to set up your store
  • Best layout practices
  • Building buyer confidence
  • Converting keywords into CASH
  • Converting more of the browsers you have into buyers
  • Directing traffic that turns into sales
  • Optimizing Turbify for search engines
  • Buying your way to the top with paid search ads (Google Adwords, Overture)
  • Tracking how you are doing (stats)
  • Researching competitors
  • Tips and tricks to make your site more usable
  • Marketing tips: coupons, trackable links, email marketing
  • "How I took a real Turbify from $15,000 a year (gross sales) to over $1.5 million a year in less than three years time." by Rob Snell
  • And more!
"I got a ton out of this.

I have to filter the class info for each site I am working on, whether it's "product centric" or "information centric" and then apply the tips accordingly. But the idea of sending a searcher into the site calling NSEARCH functions was the bombshell. Duh. With our informational site, there is no correct landing page to drop them off at, and this solves that problem well.

I think you covered the topics you planned on covering very well – certainly the book has lots of tips. I walked away with new knowledge that will return a very nice investment on the time and money I spent attending.

Operating a yahoo store is still one of the big secrets out there for small businesses who want to have a web site with checkout system. Your class and reference books give the regular guy a good look under the hood to show us how to increase the horsepower – easily.
