What is Browse Abandonment?

www.cloud-iq.com

A Browse Abandon program is an

automated email triggered by a

customer browsing products on

your website without progressing

on to the shopping cart.

Why send browse abandonment

emails?

www.cloud-iq.com

Maximise your acquisition budget

You’ve spent time and budget driving traffic to the site, so make the most of this budget.

These visitors have shown an interest so help them out….

www.cloud-iq.com

People abandon their browsing sessions

because ….

• They were determining whether this was the right product for them

• They need more information.

• They had concerns about the process they had started or ran into technical problems.

• They were interrupted

• They were still researching prices or products on other sites.

www.cloud-iq.com

Think of it as being the same as ……

A sales assistance, carefully approaching shoppers as they pick up and browse your products, giving them information on sizing, pricing, and any related offers

www.cloud-iq.com

After all – we all love customer service….

How does it work?

www.cloud-iq.com

Similar but not the same as a Cart

Abandonment Programme

• They are service-based messages same as cart-abandonment emails

• However they focus on service rather than selling

• You will have more opportunities but will convert less

www.cloud-iq.com

They target buyers at an earlier stage in the

buying process

The Essentials

• You have permission to market them

• You have approached this with wisdom and caution

• You have a frequency cap in place

• Test the timing, messaging, Tone and format

• You have some awesome technology that enables this

www.cloud-iq.com

Encourage an

unknown

visitor to self-

identify

This then

enables you to

re-market to

them

When do you send browse

abandonment emails?

www.cloud-iq.com

Just think….

• You have permission to email them

• You know what products they’ve been looking at in real-time

• You have the means to contact them and offer them the products that the’y’reinterested in AT THE EXACT TIME they’re interested in them!

• Yes –this is REAL-TIME marketing

Not every page generates a high abandon

rate

• Track your web page bounces

• Identify the products that have high bounce rates(they may be more of a considered purchase)

• Start with these

• Address the potential objections and offer help
