Welcome,

The great philosopher Aristotle once said:

“Character may almost be called the most effective means of persuasion.”

For centuries, top salespeople, politicians, businesspeople and lawyers knew the key to their success was to gain the trust of their audience. If you can gain someone’s trust, it becomes exponentially easier to persuade and influence them to your way of thinking.

But when it comes to online marketing, it’s harder to gain the trust of your site visitors because they don’t know if you are an honest site or not. And it’s no wonder, when according to the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center; millions of dollars are lost each year due to people being victimized by scams and scammers. Most people realize the Internet is infested with scams and fraud. That’s why they’re not so quick to pull out their credit card if you do not have an established brand presence or an existing relationship how are your visitor going to know you Trusted Site?

The prevalence of online scams, fraud and uncertainty are another reason for shopping cart drop-off. When the moment of truth comes, they’re not entirely comfortable with entering their personal information into your order form because they don’t know if you are a reliable site and a safe website they can do business with! It’s your job to establish trust and credibility, but how?

The problem is most businesses simply cannot afford a major media blitz to build public trust in their brand. It can take months to earn trust from the public. A good work around is placing what’s called a “trust seal” on your website.

If you’ve ever done any online shopping, chances are you’ve seen certain graphics on order pages that were from a completely different organization that claimed that business is safe to order from. That is a trust seal. There are various organizations such as the BBB, McAfee or VeriSign that sell you the right to display their particular trust seal or logo. All of these companies provide important services, but none of them actually do a background check on your website to assure the shopping public that the website is a “verified website” and that you can safely do business with this website!

Business owners pay expensive annual membership fees to have the rights to display these trust seals on their websites. It makes sense to do this because you can lift conversion rates and revenue 10% or more, almost immediately. Visitors see these trust seals which signal to them that this merchant is safe to do business with. In essence, you’re leveraging the built-in credibility of the seal to accomplish your revenue goals. Websites that display these seals are considered “Internet Trusted Sites” to the browsing public. These most trusted sites enjoy a significant advantage over the websites that don’t display these seals!

The results speak for themselves:

A survey by Synovate Research in September 2008 showed that 86% of online shoppers feel more comfortable entering personal information on websites that have trust seals.

Consumer reports found that 88% of online shoppers say that protection of their personal data is a top concern.

71% of online shoppers in surveys report that it’s important to them to see a trust seal or logo displayed on a website they plan on doing business with, because they want to do business with a trusted site.

Market research for two different companies that provide expensive trust seals found their clients attained an impressive 10% to 30% increase in sales and response.

Here’s something else, research found that those businesses that were displaying trust seals on their websites on average were gaining an extra month’s worth of sales – each year! Just think how much more revenue that could mean to your site?

But there’s a problem.

The problem with most trust seals is twofold. The first problem is, the companies selling these trust seals offer valuable and needed services, but their services DO NOT involve performing background checks on their customers. The second problem is, even if a website displays one of these seals there still no guarantee that the merchant displaying these seals is an honest and trustworthy company to do business with.

Worse still, you’re looking at paying anywhere from $700 to $1,500 per year to get a membership with one of these organizations. This is out of reach for most business owners.

The good news is, you can now get a “superior” trust seal that has tremendous value and tells your visitors that your site is an honest and trusted website, for far less than what other trust seals cost.

Please allow me to introduce the Shop Safe Verified membership program. Our program also offers a trust seal programs but with 2 important differences.

1. First, our program is affordable for all businesses.
2. And second, our program is somewhat exclusive. In other words, to become a member, you must be willing to let us do a background check on your business for complaints of fraud and scams.

Our trust seal signals to website visitors that your business has gone through a complete background check that clears you of any fraud or Internet scams, which means you’re safe to do business with. No other program on the market does this. This background check goes beyond what other trust seals offer and signals to your visitors that you are a trusted site that has been thoroughly vetted.

Of course, when we conduct the background check on your business, we will not require private information such as your social security number or anything similar. We will use our own team, to comb through public information. There’s nothing invasive. It’s that simple.

Visitors to your website will be able to click the Shop Safe Verified seal on your site to read a page that explains how we thoroughly vetted your business. This inspires confidence in your visitors and assures them that your site is a “safe website” and they can safely do business with you.

Now – if during our investigation of your business we find negative information or complaints on your business, we will notify you of the location of that information so you can respond accordingly. You might be surprised by what we find! If we find negative untrue information about your website during our investigation, it could be costing you significant revenue. Knowing what’s being said about your business and responding to harmful and untrue allegations is worth far more than the low cost of our membership!

Here’s something else to consider …

Even if you already have trust seals on your website, adding more can improve your results. Think about it, would you feel more comfortable filling out an order form that had 2 to 3 trust seals or just 1 trust seal?

Many site visitors like to “think about it” before making a purchase. By having a trust seal you can shorten the decision making process and reclaim lost revenue.

• Almost overnight you can see a 10% boost in sales and revenue – without any changes to your copy, design or offer
• Instantly imparts a halo of credibility to your website and business
• Stand out from your competitors and gain an unfair advantage
• A fraction of the price of memberships with other trust seals – yet you gain the same advantages
• Makes visitors feel safe placing orders through your system knowing your site is a reliable website
• Watch your referral business increase

To maintain the integrity of our membership, we cannot accept every candidate into the program. That said, if your website is less than 2 years old, we cannot accept it. Your website must also pass our strict background check to make sure there are no reports of scam, fraud, poor service or non-delivery. Also, websites involved in illegal activities, adult websites, or the like are not welcome into the program. (Membership is only offered to companies selling products or services.)

Here’s something else to consider. Depending on the niche, only a few websites will be allowed to display the Shop Safe Verified Seal This guarantees that the seal retains value for those who display it. So if the quota is filled for the niche you’re in, you may not be able to get a Shop Safe Verified annual membership. That’s why it makes sense to act now before you miss out.

There’s absolutely nothing to decide.

Simply order your Shop Safe Verified membership and let the results dictate whether you keep your membership or not. You be the sole judge.

Select the seal that goes best with your website. You can choose the seal that goes best with your website from the four beautiful designs below:

We’re so confident you’ll love the results that we’re giving you not 30 days … but a full 60 days to try it. This gives you more than enough time to conduct marketing tests to see how much of a lift in conversion rates our trust seal gives you. Even still, we’re willing to go the extra mile. Here’s how:

By now you’re probably wondering how much your investment will be in a Shop Safe Verified membership. If you can increase your conversion rate due to the Shop Safe trust seal then it’s easily worth thousands of dollars (possibly more) in additional revenue you otherwise wouldn’t have generated.
