How to Decide Which Services to Feature on Your Number Store
Business guide ·
Your store can sell numbers for well over a thousand services. Customers only care about the one they need right now. Making the popular ones easy to find is one of the simplest ways to sell more.
Find out what sells
After your first weeks, look at your store's statistics. A small group of services will make up most of your orders. Messaging apps, big social networks, email providers and marketplaces usually lead, but your mix depends on your customers.
Before you have data
Think about who you're selling to. Developers testing apps need different services than online sellers or marketers. Start with the services your audience talks about most, and adjust once real orders come in.
Make them easy to find
- Switch off services your customers never need. Your admin can even limit the store to the popular services in one click.
- Mention them on your home page and in your posts.
- Write a short guide for each of the top ones. Which country tends to work, what to do if a code doesn't arrive.
Price the popular ones carefully
Customers compare prices on the services they buy most. Keep your markup reasonable on those. You can earn a higher margin on rare services, where customers are just happy to find them at all.
Watch stock
Popular services can run low in some countries at busy times. Check which countries have good availability and point customers there. Your store shows live stock and prices.
Don't hide the rest
The long tail matters too. Someone looking for a rare service who finds it on your store often becomes a loyal customer. Unless you have a clear niche, keep most of the catalogue switched on.
Review monthly
Trends change. A new app becomes popular, another one fades. Look at your statistics once a month and update what you feature.
Your store's statistics and service settings are in the admin of your telly.cat reseller store.
