I’ve just been turned on to a new search tool called SearchMe.com. It’s a search engine that brings you visual results of the webpages using flash that are returned from your search query.

You can also put your search results into what’s called a stack and then share these with other web users. Searchme.com was good at picking out some audio content for me and I found it useful to see the web pages before visiting.

I think the site is still in Beta but I’ve seen some good ideas in the site.

Trust and the Guarantee

Giving a good guarantee is one way of introducing trust into the salespage – one great example is by the late Ken Giddens when he was selling perfume online (see the following video) but what got me was the Guarantee he gave. He basically had an ‘Empty Bottle’ Guarantee. He allowed the customer to use up nearly all of the perfume within the bottle and still get a refund by just sending in the empty bottle.

You can see Ken Giddens explain this here:
