1. Get to know the site. Don’t just buy from any site that pops up on the 1st page of a Google search. These sites either have a huge budget for search engine marketing or are run by tech-savvy entrepreneurs. Big budgeted companies are normally more reputable but do take the time to get to know who is actually taking your money. A lot of sites team up with bigger, well-reputed companies to handle their transaction processing such as Amazon or Paypal. This guarantees your money and gives you assurance that you can get it back if products fall short of seller promises.
2. Take advantage of sales. Stores like ZeMis.com are offering huge 70% discounts to get you to the first step of online shopping – visit their site. Once you’re on their site, they’re hoping you can check out their other items and perhaps buy it. Maybe not now but their store is now top of your mind. Here’s the tip. If you like what’s on sale, buy it. No need to buy anything else. Chances are they’re losing on the sale in the hopes that you will buy other items where they can earn a profit. That means you’re getting a good deal!
3. Shop early. In the same way we avoid rush hour, avoid jam-packed sites inundated with orders on December 22. Whether it’s Christmas, Hanukkah or Kwanzaa, there’s a deadline to meet and why risk overshooting the all-important date? Most sites offer free shipping if you shop early. By all means, maximize this shopping opportunity.
4. Know their privacy policy and security risk. Don’t order from a site until you’ve read through their About Us and Privacy Policy pages. Make sure they use encryption technology to process your order and that they will not sell your e-mail address to third parties or use your financial information for other purposes. ZeMis has teamed up with Amazon to handle all of its e-commerce transactions. Your credit card and e-mail information go through Amazon and not ZeMis. It is kept secure and safe from third parties.
5. Print or save a screenshot of your order page after it has been placed. This is your proof of purchase. If anything happens to your purchase along the way, this is your sole proof that details everything about your transaction. Likewise, save the e-mail confirmation that your order was placed and/or was shipped.
6. Release personal information at a bare minimum. All web merchants require you to disclose personal information such as billing and ship to addresses. But by all means keep your password private (even or especially from your children) and never divulge your social security number.
7. Follow your instincts on trust. Online shopping should be as comfortable and convenient as possible, not stressful. If for any reason, you have doubts about a site, don’t place the order until your concerns have been addressed. Contact the store. If they respond timely and adequately, then maybe they are worth trying. Consider buying a low-ticket item first. If all goes well, you can gradually increase your transaction size.
There are many more tips we can offer but the above are the most basic ones to get you started. The most important first tip of all is to get rid of your anxiety of online shopping. IT IS SAFE. VERY SAFE. People from different walks of life have been doing it for more than a decade, mostly intelligent, highly-educated shoppers. They’re smart because they know the benefits and have been maximizing bargain and convenience opportunities for a long time.
