Add a “Virtual Salesperson” To Connect and Engage Your Visitors
Okay, we know what you’re thinking. Something along the lines of, “I am not putting one of those hokey dancing people or talking heads on my website to annoy and irritate my customers!”
We get it. (And the hokey dancing people ads annoy us, too.) But done correctly, adding a “Virtual Salesperson” to your site increases click through and traffic to select products and pages on your site, as well as persuading prospects to click on the all important "Order Now" button.
Here’s an example of a virtual salesperson done with what we feel is pitch-perfect humor. Check out this page at Projectorpeople.com. After a brief 5-sentence pitch on ordering printers, the “Don’t mind me, I’m just waiting” demeanor of the virtual salesperson encourages visitors to click through to put the poor man out of his misery. Also, notice that not every page of the site has a virtual salesperson. You can, and should, use a Virtual Salesperson for added punch for special promotions or to draw visitor attention to a certain product feature or service on your site.
Far from being a drain, a virtual sales person provides warmth and life to a website. You can also use virtual salespeople to promote feelings of trust and security among customers.

Thanks for the great information! Marketing tools like this sound like a great idea! I am especially impressed with the idea for promotional flash drives! This could be really catching to a client.
