🌊 A Dive into Lesser-Known Conversion Strategies
Remember - charting your brand's journey in the bustling digital marketplace is no small feat. It's not always about following the crowd or sticking to the "tried and tested." Sometimes, the secret to skyrocketing conversions lies in the lesser-explored strategies,
So, here are some lesser-known yet effective strategies to boost conversions and keep those virtual shopping carts from being abandoned:
🛑Plug the Sales Funnel Leaks
Heatmaps are great, but they don't tell the whole story! So, here’s what you can do instead:
Use usability testing to get a deeper understanding of the obstacles shoppers face.
Watch live sessions & gather feedback about the overall shopping experience.
By getting into the nitty-gritty of the customer journey, you can plug those leaks and watch your conversions flow.
🥳Celebrate Micro-conversions
Not every visitor is ready to hit 'buy' right away, and that's okay!
Recognize that visitors might be there to learn about your brand or compare prices.
Avoid overwhelming visitors with CTAs and product-focused content.
By celebrating the small wins and respecting the customer's journey, you can build trust and eventually, boost those sales.
🔍Optimize Your Search Feature
Make your search feature a helpful guide & not a confusing maze.
Offer product recommendations when a search yields zero results.
Use real-time updates in the dropdown menus to help customers refine their search.
A user-friendly search feature can help customers find what they want faster, reducing drop-offs and increasing conversions.
🧐Speed Up Product Discovery
Make your product categories a well-organized library and not a cluttered closet.
Implement schema markups and avoid infinite scrolling.
Use a vertical navigation bar for many top-level categories.
By making product discovery a breeze, you can reduce cart abandonment and boost conversions.
🤨Combat Choice Paralysis
Too many choices can be as bad as too few. So:
Limit your product list to avoid overwhelming customers.
Offer discounts to first-time buyers to encourage purchases.
By simplifying the decision-making process, you can increase conversions and sales.
🤩Turn that No into a Yes
Even when you have to say no, find a way to keep the customer engaged.
If a product is temporarily out of stock, allow customers to place an order and communicate when it will be available.
If a product is permanently out of stock, recommend new products or categories.
By turning a negative into a positive, you can keep customers engaged and increase conversions.
😶🌫️Ease the Cognitive Load
Don't overwhelm customers with too much information. Rather:
Arrange text into manageable sections and use hover-over images to show information.
Use a URL rewrite for each filtering stage so customers can go back without losing all the filters.
By making information easy to digest, you can improve the shopping experience and increase conversions.
👀Embrace Mobile Pop-ups
Mobile pop-ups can be a friend, not a foe if done right.
