Why Buying Online Is the Best Way to Buy a Quality
Water Treatment System
Out of all the things you can buy on the internet
today, few are better suited to internet marketing than water
treatment products.
The reason is that the purchase of a
water treatment product is INFORMATION
CRITICAL!
Most people have to rely on outside
advice. The more expert the advice, the MORE LIKELY a customer is to
be satisfied with their purchase!
The problem is that up
until the internet, most people couldn't buy their products from
experts. They had to buy them from salespeople who know little or
nothing about water treatment issues.
Historically, most
water treatment products have been marketed either through
- Large national chains like Culligan, Rainsoft, and Kinnetico,
- Multi-level marketing operations like Amway and Multipure, or
- Retail outlets like Sears, Home Depot or the local hardware
store.
You don't have to be a rocket
scientist to realize that few salespeople at a Sears or hardware
store would qualify as water treatment experts. They might be great
if what you need is some chemicals for your pool or hot-tub, or even
a sediment filter for your water garden.
These folks do have
a couple of advantages over the other choices above. They are
usually willing to admit their ignorance because they aren't
commissioned salespeople, and their products, while far from
top-of-the-line, are competitively priced for what they are.
Those who sell water treatment products for multi-level
operations have three strikes against them.
- First, very few know anything more about water than their
marketing literature tells them, and often the material is nothing
but phony hype.
- Second, they are usually more interested in getting you to
join their downline than in helping you find a solution to your
water issues.
- Third, prices for their products are way over inflated in
order to pay all the levels involved. That leaves the traditional
retailers of water treatment equipment. These are the people in
the first category above.
If you are considering buying from these
folks, here are some things you should know:
- The large national chains that sell
water treatment equipment spend far more time training their
salespeople in sales closing techniques than on issues to do
with water treatment. In fact, the vast majority of
their salespeople know very little to nothing about water
treatment issues.
- The large national chains make their salespeople memorize a
carefully crafted script designed to sell everyone a water
softener combined with a reverse-osmosis system. These products
are sold at prices that range from $3,500 to $4,500! This
cookie-cutter approach is ill-advised. For many people these products are
inappropriate or unnecessary. Even when they are appropriate,
better quality products can be purchased from companies like
ours for half that price! The difference is
commissions.
- The large national chains spend more money on marketing
their products than they do building them. In many cases just
the commission expense to the salesperson is MORE than what it
costs to build the product, not including advertising, phone
rooms, free movie tickets, etc.
- The large national chains want you to
finance the products at exorbitant interest rates though finance
companies with which they are affiliated because they make more
money on the finance charges than they do on the sale of the
product!
With the advent of the
internet these companies have a real problem.They are worried as
well they should be.
Now, no matter where you live in
the country, and no matter what your water treatment need, because
of the Internet you can have access to a water treatment
professional who can give you expert advice, better quality
products (they'll dispute this but it is absolutely true), at far
less money.
Perhaps even more
importantly, a person can shop online from the comfort of their
own home, take time to research and digest information, and come
to a decision without having to endure a high-pressure sales
presentation.
It doesn't matter if what you need
is a drinking water system at your kitchen sink, or a system
designed to treat the water in your RV, boat, or entire home,
buying online can save you a lot of time and money, give you a
better product, and provide a more enjoyable shopping experience.
Bottom line: buying a quality
