Your job is to draw a web users interest so they visit your site and hopefully make a sale.

This includes sites such as Google, Facebook/Instagram, Youtube ads, etc.. Depending on your budget, you can choose whether to have professionally crafted videos and graphics or a simple ad that gets your point across easily and within your financial possibilities.

There are many email programs that allow you to ask past customers for reviews which will help grow your trustworthiness among new customers.
