Carts Turned into Revenue

01 · BACKGROUND

The Problem

An outdoor gear online store lost many orders just before checkout. Customers added products to their cart and then left the site. The reminder emails were rarely opened or ended up in spam.

02 · SOLUTION

How SMS Solves the Problem

If a customer who has agreed to receive SMS abandons a purchase, the store sends a short reminder via the SMS API after one hour. It contains a link to the saved cart and a ten percent coupon code valid for 48 hours. The short link shows the store who clicked.

The Benefits

BENEFIT 01

More Completed Orders

The SMS is read while the purchase is still fresh in the customer's mind. The coupon gives the final nudge.
BENEFIT 02

Fully Automated

The store triggers the SMS itself, so the team doesn't have to do anything. The connection to the shop system was set up through Zapier without a developer.
BENEFIT 03

Measurable Success

Click rate and redeemed coupons show exactly what the SMS delivers. This makes it possible to improve the text and timing in a targeted way.
