Millions of items are purchased online every day. As a result, companies must look for ways to
attract Internet shoppers. Interestingly, marketing professionals are trying to persuade people to
buy products online by using strategies that were used in the past to increase sales in shops.
When people are uncertain about something, they often look at what other people are doing to help
them make up their mind. By showing the most popular items on their site, marketers show
shoppers what other people are buying. They can also publish customer reviews, in an attempt to
influence potential buyers.
In addition, people usually want what they can’t have. If they think that a product is only available
for a limited time, they are more likely to purchase it. Online marketers can make people think that
a product will soon be unavailable, by using slogans like “For one week only” or “While stocks
last!”
People who work in marketing claim that if a person is already committed to buying one product, it
will be easier to convince him to purchase something else as well. This is also true online. For this
reason, websites often display related items near each other, like they do in shops. This makes it
quicker and easier to sell more items.
It’s also important for companies to make shoppers feel that they aren’t taking a risk by purchasing
a product. Many online shopping sites promise shoppers that they will refund their money if they
aren’t satisfied with any of their products.
Finally, it’s clear that people feel much more confident about purchasing a product when they have
actually seen it. Pictures and videos on Internet shopping sites make this possible. Watching a
video requires less effort than reading about a product, so it’s more likely to convince people to
buy something.
Although many of these strategies are useful in helping companies to attract customers, it’s
important to remember that if you want your company to be successful, you will need good
products. Some things never change, even in the digital age!

Some experts believe that poor indoor air may be responsible for a wide range of health problems
among workers in buildings. Many office and hospital workers suffer from headaches and
unexplained rashes. They also often complain of an itchy nose and throat and dizziness. Although
doctors can’t find any specific illness that might explain their symptoms, they confirm that the
health problems are genuine. Because the symptoms usually disappear when the workers are away
from work, doctors believe that they are caused by something in their work environment. They
have even come up with a name for this illness: “sick building syndrome”. In some cases, they tell
sufferers that they should not continue working in a particular building.
Sick building syndrome is becoming increasingly common. It is especially common in newer,
energy-efficient buildings, where windows are sealed shut to prevent heat from escaping. As a
result, there isn’t a lot of fresh air. This has led many doctors to believe that sick building
syndrome is caused by the quality of the air in the buildings.
However, not everyone is sure that people are becoming ill because of the air. Sick building
syndrome often occurs in buildings where there is poor lighting as well as overheating problems.
According to some experts, the workers’ symptoms may actually be caused by stress, boredom and
bad relationships with their co-workers and managers. They explain that if people have to do
monotonous and repetitive tasks every day and are constantly arguing with the people around them,
it is not surprising that they start to feel ill.
It is difficult to know the real reason for the rise in reported incidents of sick building syndrome.
However, even if poor air quality is not the only factor that is causing workers to feel ill, there can
be no doubt that bad air is not good for people’s health. That is why bosses must do everything
they can to try to improve the quality of the air that their workers are breathing.
