Here’s our first case for video chat!

Video chat is a great way to add a new revenue stream while offering your site clients a new value-added option.

Who: In many businesses (Amway or Mary Kay, for example) where global sales reps offer the same products, in order to gain a competitive edge and increase sales, need a differentiator: something that makes buying from them more rewarding, more fun or more convenient than buying from others.

Why: Some salespeople have personalized web pages where their customers can make purchases. It’s an optional feature that allows them to add more convenience to their customer’s shopping experience.

What: Now, imagine giving these sales reps the option to add video chat to their personalized web page so that they can make even more powerful connections with customers. They can form a group of live customers on the web just like the parties they give in homes – demonstrating the products and taking orders.

The Verdict: With the tough economy, many people, especially individual sales reps, are in need of differentiators to get and maintain clients. By adding video chat to your web site and extending this feature to your web site clients, you give them another way to stand out with their customers.
