eCommerce Promotions and Marketing

By | January 4, 2016

Promotion is a powerful tool to entice and encourage your customers to buy from your store. A wisely designed promotion campaign helps online retailers in marketing their products, increase customer traffic on their store and pull down cart abandonment rate. As holiday season is approaching; internet is full of offers, attractive discounts and a pool of promotional emails.

In such frenzy; retailers needs to evaluate customers, their likes/dislikes, what competitors are offering, why customers are leaving your store without buying and how to encourage them to spend more.  Simply emailing the customers or posting a link in a social media it’s not going to work.  Promotional campaign differs business to business, market trends and products hence requires a right strategy.
