5. Automation Is the Future

Ever noticed a subscribe now popup show up as soon as you move your cursor to the tabs? Well that’s called an exit-intent popup. It’s a strategy used to request users to either subscribe or make up their mind regarding a product they were looking at. Basically, it’s your last chance to convince the client to convert. Such automated popups and plugins are great to increase engagement on your site and make it look more appealing.

Another great way to connecting with a person who left your site in the past is by sending emails. You can set target all those users that filled their carts, but never check out. You can set automated emails to remind such users after a specific number of days after they left. Though there are no guarantees that such customers will return, it’s worth a try as you already lost them. To make it more convincing you can also provide them with an exclusive offer if they opt to buy what they shortlisted during their previous visit.
