Are you finding a way to dramatically increase revenue by transforming abandoned carts into recovered ones?
Is yes, this blog post is definitely for you.
I am going to show you how you can leverage the power of Web Push Notification – the most advanced yet fairly new channel to re-engage and convert your cart abandoners into customers.
With the simple, instant and direct nature, web push notification is the key to recovering your abandoned carts. It gets your customers interested in revisiting their carts and send them back to your online store at the best timing so that they can complete their purchases with ease and convenience.
Just like with other channels – how you use web push notification is vitally important. Let’s dive in and see how you can optimize web push notification to massively increase your online revenue!
If you have not implemented web push notification yet, I highly recommend Recover Cart Pusher – the free app that automates your abandoned cart notifications. It saves you time and earns you big money, at no cost!
First thing first: How to maximize the opt-in rate of your notifications.
Opt-Ins are the Door To Success of your web push notification campaign. The higher the rate is, the more abandoned carts you can recover.
But it is estimated that up to 60% of website visitors opt-out of push notifications. It’s easy to understand because the default opt-in box only offers a simple text-based prompt with: “company name would like to send you notifications.” The user has two buttons below that, which typically read: “allow” or “block.”
These limitations leave the online store owners with almost nothing to work with. Fortunately, Recover Cart Pusher offers a workaround that allows you to use more text and graphics – the Permission Box. By default, this box is enabled automatically and shown to your site visitors at the same time with the browser opt-in box.
Now that when you have a customizable permission box, it’s time for creativity. You need an enticing subscription pitch to maximize the number of subscribers.
- Write a succinct permission message: The message in your opt-in tells your visitors why they should subscribe to your push notifications. What this means is that the copy must clearly convey the benefits of receiving your push alerts.
Also, let them know they can unsubscribe anytime. This simple sentence proves that you will not send spam notifications and that you really care about their privacy.
- Set the delay time. If the popup is triggered too soon, it will end up interrupting the customer’s shopping experience on your online store. So what’s the best timing? It’s this simple: you need to find our the visitor engagement on your site and hold it off for about 50% – 60% of the average time on page. By doing this, you can dramatically increase your opt-in rate
The average time on page of your online store can be found in Google Analytics report.
- Use other communication channels to encourage subscription: for example, you can promote the benefits of subscribing to push notifications on Facebook and then put a link to your website. By giving the right context and building anticipation about what your web push notifications will offer, you’ll see an increase in opt-ins.
Or running ad campaigns to bring quality traffic and grow your web push notification subscriber list. This is much better if you just bring them and just let them leave if they do not purchase.
