If you operate in web space, make sure your page is easy to navigate. Buying a product or service shouldn't involve more than three or four clicks -- cut out any unnecessary steps.
Hire a professional web designer to ensure the site is user friendly.
Plan For Your Growth
The only thing worse than not making enough sales, is making more sales than you can comfortably manage. This can result in losing important customers, especially if your product and service can't live up to expectations.
If your company is growing rapidly, plan for that growth. Make sure you can keep up with demand so you don't have to turn down business, or lose it by trying to keep up.
If your current staff is having trouble getting the workload done, hire more employees. By doing this, you will be able to meet deadlines and keep customers happy.
What's Next?
If you're slammed with sales, you may feel like you don't have time to consider what your next step is -- but you should.
Will you keep growing at the current rate, or will you need to make major changes to the organization?
Depending on the level of sales growth, you may need to form a new department to better manage the process. If your exit strategy involves selling your company, you may choose to do so while sales are hot so you can negotiate a better price for your business.
