Being last, while thriving to survive among the fittest is a pitiful sight. By coming last you not only miss out on a horde of opportunities, you also have to live with the constant fear of suddenly being evicted out of the business game any moment. “If you are weaker player, it’s going to be a very tough 2017 for you” said RJ Hottovy, a consumer equity strategist for Morningstar on a recent article on BusinessInsider that talked about the number of famous departmental stores (Macy’s, Walmart, Kohl’s and Sears) that have been shut down in the last few years as shopping continued to shift online and foot traffic gradually declined.

In order to stay ahead, the very first thing you need is to be aware of what is expected out of you in terms of being and staying at the top – digitally. The solution is to grab your customer’s attention that too at its peak i.e when they want you to.

No programming call back LucepBy using a callback tool on your website gives you the ability to convert those leads who directly or accidentally land on your site into your customers.

Besides, not all your website visitors want to buy from you. It may come as a surprise to you that approximately 96% of visitors who land on your website are not ready to buy.

The first appearance of your website before the customer is when he is largely in the consideration stage of the online sales funnel, i.e when he is comparing your product with your competitors in order to decide which is best for him. There has to a be a compelling situation for the customer in the consideration stage to move down the funnel to the decision stage. This can be achieved or the possibility can be maximized by adding tools and techniques .

A callback tool is one such additional boost that you give to your website and your customers to be able to reach out to you when they are in consideration stage – that too with just a click of a button.You too can callback customers and engage in a more purposeful conversation as you know that the customer is already interested in your product and hence having a higher probability to convert.
