I dont understand
, maybe its just me, but it seems the KISS
formula has been tossed out the window.
I visit various sites that are supposed to be selling a
product or accomadation
and get various messages such as:
Wed like to let you know you do not
have the latest
version of IE or Netscape and wed like to ask you to
upgrade your browser at this measure
.
Were sorry but this site might
only be viewed with Internet
Explorer.
If you want to view our page
you will
have to download the
flash media software.
Sorry you absolutely need to download these plug ins before viewing
our site.
Well I have to admit I am
out of there when it comes to any
of these sites.
If Im looking for a item or service and you want my
funds
, do not
inquire of
me to jump through hoops to hand it to
you.
I am
not visiting your web site so I can spend the rest of the
night adding plug ins, upgrading browsers and being told
I am
not welcome unless I do a "dog and pony" show for you.
Maybe Im wrong, but web surfers have a limited attention
span when it comes to making a buying decision and I really
do not
think theyre coming to be impressed by your web page
.
Theyre stopping by to see if you have what they want, positive need
or wants.
I am
sure many of these sites are making nice sales, but how
many more are they losing?
There are sites with a sales letter and maybe one or two
graphics building
sales around the clock. You stop by, see
what they have to offer, and either you buy or you do not
.
Theyre proverb
, "Hey come as you are, youre always welcome."
I know that there are a lot of goodies out there to impress
visitors with, but Id rather feel relaxed
and welcome.
If you expect me to spend my funds
contruct
it easy. I am
not
looking to spend the rest of the night building
upgrades and
changing browsers etc. so I may hand you my money.
I could be
old fashioned, but if you want my money, make me
feel relaxed
. I dont need to be told I have to change
to hand you my money.
Im actually glad there are so many sites I cant view, it
saves me funds
.
Wishing You Success
