Today we want to share some insights to help you boost sales and enhance your revenue streams with upselling and cross-selling.

What is Upselling vs. Cross-Selling?

It almost always makes sense to upsell or cross-sell.

These strategies are designed to help you maximize your earnings while creating memorable experiences for your customers.

So, what is upselling vs. cross-selling?

UPselling is UPgrading—it’s encouraging the next level option.
Think two scoops of ice-cream instead of one.

Cross-selling encourages the purchase of Complementary value.
Think book my hike AND rent binoculars for birdwatching during it.

Both techniques are win-win situations that add value to the buyer while increasing your revenue at the same time.

5 Tips to Boost Sales as an Experience Creator by Upselling and Cross-Selling

Boost your sales as a guide, instructor, maker or creator by implementing these 5 tips:

1️⃣  Identify Opportunities:

Find natural upsell and cross-sell opportunities within your existing product or service.

2️⃣  Understand Your Customers’ Needs: 

Personalization is key. Listen to your customers and understand their interests. Tailor your offer to your customers’ preferences. Highlight complementary value that aligns with their interests and add compelling upgrades.

3️⃣  Bundle for Savings:

Cross-sell related experiences by creating bundles. Offer a discount when customers book two or more experiences at once; this can include booking the same class or activity in advance. Bundling also works for products.

4️⃣  Partner Up: 

Cross-selling involves offering additional, complementary value. Say you teach pottery classes, you could cross-sell by partnering with a nearby painter to offer a joint “Create and Paint” experience. You’d also combine audiences for more reach FYI.

5️⃣  Offer VIP: 

People love feeling special. Provide an option to upgrade to an exclusive package with unique access, perks, or benefits.
