In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Eric Siu recommends a few tips to increase your ecommerce sales with these simple steps.

Make sure your site has a chat function on its page. This way, the path to communication is made shorter and you can also chat with customers when they are farther down the sales funnel. Creating urgency is another great tactic. By condensing the window customers have to make a decision, you can help lock in these customers to commit to making a purchase.

Siu closes with highlighting upsell and cart abandonment tactics, which can further increase recognition and your ecommerce sales overall.
