Daily Sales Tip: Show Your Product
Are you heading to the Apple Store to buy "The new iPad" that goes on sale today?
Advertisers tell us they like when digital salespeople show the products they are selling on a tablet or laptop when presenting recommendations.
If you don't use a tablet or laptop in your presentations, now is a good time to get one. The new iPad starts at $499, but we've seen the older iPad2 drop in price to as low as $359 and it is still capable of showing sample display ads, web pages, podcasts, online video, station images, streaming and presentations.
