What if you've been doing your best launching buzz marketing campaigns, hired an SEO expert to drive traffic to your newly-designed site but still no closed deals at the end of the day?

Could it be your product? Your sales copy? Your fate?! Surely, it will not hurt to use something new that claims to improve your site's conversion, right? What about live chat assistant application?

I've learned about this online chat assistant called UpSellIt. For customers it will seem like they are chatting with a real person when it's actually a software program designed to help close deals.

If you have an e-commerce site, here is what UpSell claims to help you with:

UpSellit.com has the ability to launch a SMARTagent chat window to engage the customer when they abandon your shopping cart or order form. The SMARTagent can answer any questions or concerns the customer has while also offering that customer a new incentive to buy - a discount, free shipping, etc. When the customer is reengaged and agrees to make a purchase, the SMARTagent will provide him/her with a link back to your order page. Historically, our clients have seen an increase in sales between 5-20%.

Will you dare try such service? Let me know how it fared, okay?
