Abandoned Cart Strategy

High level overview:

  • Capture emails + recover lost sales at the same time.
  • Recover lost sales by offering your visitor an enticing discount or value offer as they attempt to leave your cart or checkouts page.
  • Sumo can detect their exit intent and deploy this strategy, bringing them back into the purchase funnel right then, or at a later date via Sumo's auto response email.
  • The exclusive discount code is delivered on the success message of form itself along with our Sumo Auto Responder email.

Why is it important?

Best Practices:

When setting up this strategy, you need to choose your discount offer.

Sumo Recommendation: A 10% discount offer is our recommended starting place. Expect to see higher conversion rates the higher discount you offer:

A few other ideas to test:

  • Dollar Amount Offer:
    • Try testing $ discount vs. % discount of the same amount. If your AOV is $100, try $10 off instead of 10% off.
  • The “Weird % Offer”:
    • Try 7% or 9% off. We’ve seen a smaller discount amounts outperform round figures, like 10% or 20%
  • Free Shipping:
    • Free shipping has almost become expected by visitors. However, you should definitely test this offer to see if it performs for your unique audience.
