Jaws Photos E-mail

So I am trying to get more traffic to my site to try an sell more stuff... Although I am pretty sure Pritchard windsurfing sold more Starboard Isonics than any other shop in the US, I am still wondering why the shop doesnt sell more. Do you think it is casue we dont have enough products up? Do we need to advertise more? Do I need to blog more? Do you guy need to tell your friends where to get the best stuff in the world??

Anyhow, I figured that if I put Jaws photos, all the people who RSS and whatnot will come to the site to check it out.. So now is the time to tell you what I have for sale.. I have most all of my racing stuff sold, but I have a 133, 122, 111, 94, 86 and 76 I sonic all left, one of each so first come first serve on that. I have some racing fins, some wave fins, I have lots of wave sails ready to go out the door! So if you are looking for something please send me an email and we can get you some of the finest tuned up gear on the planet.

And now since you have heard all my blah blah blah about selling stuff I will show you some of the photos from Graham Ezzy and Connor Baxtor out ther ripping up Jaws. It was a small day but I am sure that they had tons of fun. I went out for a couple waves but was nothing too special. Just trying to get some photos taken of me at Jaws so I can become cool.. or famous.. one of the two..

Enjoy!

Hi kevin, 
 
Great shots! 
 
For your shop, what about doing some benchmarking with a successful online seller like zappos for instance? I just visited the shop and you could put a sort of zooming function on the sails so people can look at the details like footmast protection, beam, battens, etc...  
Best,

What are your expectations for selling? Conversion rates on websites, sales compared to traffic, are pretty low. A 1% or 2% conversion rate is actually considered pretty nominal for many online retailers and that's in a good economy. Really good conversion rates might be on the order of 6% to 8%. So, first, make sure your expectations for web sales are realistic.

Holy S*&t! that second photo is AWESOME! It really makes you feel and respect the size of the wave. this photo confirms that I would definitely shit my pants if I would be out there with that wall behind me...

That 2nd shot is great because that's an angle not often seen in the mags....plus it really gives a sense of what it's like on the inside (on the left) of that wave...looks huge by most standards even though its considered a small day.

That shot of Graham Ezzy is SICK!! Excellent angle and the view up at the crest looks like something out of one of those disaster flicks!! : )
