Our key tips to users, retailers and brands for advertising and navigating this website.
Recommendations to users of KitDeals.com®
Navigating this website
KitDeals.com® is set out in a very user friendly and functional way. If you get lost at anytime just use the top menu banner in order to re-direct you to where you need to be.
Using the search function
The search function is very easy to use and very useful. You have the choice to search kit type (i.e. replica shirt, rugby shorts, kit bags) and brand (i.e Rhino, Samurai, Haka). Using this function will narrow down what you want, saving you time in searching through the many products that kitdeals.com® has on offer.
Buying a product
You can not buy directly from this website but you have three different ways of purchasing your desired product. The first option is to use the link provided on the product page (underneath the rating option). This link will take you directly to the retailer or brands online shop or website where you can make a purchase directly. Second option is to use the provided contact telephone number. This will allow you to talk to the brand or retailer directly, and they will be more than happy to help. Your third option is to fill in the enquiry box with your enquiry. It will vary on how quick the retailer or brand responds to you. KitDeals.com® is the directory, meaning we direct you to the product, we do not have power or responsibility over how quickly the brand or retailer will respond to you.
Recommendations to Retailers using KitDeals.com®
Uploading Product Images
KitDeals.com® recommend that you upload professional looking and good quality images. The photo itself will in no doubt sell the product to potential customers so it needs to be presented well.
Make sure you show the main detailing of the product as this will inevitably be a unique and key selling point.
Product Descriptions
The product description is key in selling the product. Add as much detail as you can about the product, but at the same time make it short and to the point so the potential customer is informed as what they are buying but does not spend an age in doing so.
Product Descriptions - use "Keywords"
Be strategic when adding your description. Search engines such as Google search for keywords, so when a potential customer is looking for a product in which you are offering, if you have used keywords it will be more likely that your product will be found than if you don't use strategic wording.
Links to your website
Make sure the link(s) to your website work. When you add a new product you will need to link it to your online shop or website (if you have one) to enable potential customers to come directly to your site. If this link is incorrect or in a non-working order you run the risk of losing a potential customer, so make sure it is a fully functional link.
The offer
KitDeals.com® suggests you make the offer a sufficient one in order to attract potential customers.
Check your KitDeals.com area on a day-to-day basis
If you are adding a link to your website or a telephone number it is more than likely that a potential customer will contact you directly. However, from experience KitDeals.com® suggest that you sign into your KitDeals.com® account on a regularly, if not, daily basis. The reason being potential customers also use the enquiry function which is situated with the product. If this is not checked regularly and you do not reply to the enquiry within a reasonable time limit you run the risk of losing a customer.
Ask customer where they found you
As a company this may be a general practice for you already. If it is not KitDeals.com® suggest that when making a sale ask the customer where they were directed from in order to find you. This is a very good marketing practice in enabling you to find out where your customers are coming from or "hearing" about you. In relation to KitDeals.com®, you will find out whether your customers are coming from us in order to find out if KitDeals.com® is working for you.
Check your website statistics
If you do not receive website statistics, ask your website host to provide these to you. The reason KitDeals.com® mentions this is that it will give you knowledge as to where your website traffic is coming from, and again it is a great way of seeing if visitors and customers are coming to you from kitdeals.com.
