I think people concentrate way too much on selling the business. I like to say keep it simple and don’t try to sell the business instead focus on Shop.com. People love to save money. All we have to do is share our new website with our friends and show them how they can save money when they shop online.

This is simple if they live close by, but for those that live in other states or other parts of the world we recommend screen sharing. There are many online tools available that offer screen sharing, one that we like to use is called JoinMe. Here is the link https://join.me.
Here is how it works: Click “Basic” and then the orange and white arrow. This will allow you to share your screen. Then tell your friend in California (for example) to go to https://join.me and simply type in the 9 digit “CODE” that you provide them into the “Green” join me box and click the green and white arrow. That’s it. Within seconds they will be able to see your screen. It’s totally free and a great way to show people your website and it’s very simple to use and also works great with your iPad.
Now all you need to is just practice on your web portal tour. Michele has made a Shop.com portal tour video that you can watch below and learn more about Shop.com and it’s features. You also want to be sure you have an agenda written and printed out so you will know where to navigate through.
