Recovering Sales with Abandoned Cart Emails

Did you know that nearly 70% of online shopping carts are abandoned? That's a huge opportunity for recovery. Abandoned cart emails are automated messages sent to shoppers who leave your site without completing a purchase.

An Effective Abandoned Cart Sequence

1. Email 1 (1-3 hours later): A gentle reminder. "Did you forget something?" Include a picture of the item.
2. Email 2 (24 hours later): Create a sense of urgency or offer help. "Your items are selling fast!" or "Can we help?"
3. Email 3 (48-72 hours later): The final offer. A small discount (e.g., 10% off) can be a powerful incentive to complete the purchase.

"The best abandoned cart emails are helpful, not pushy. They remind, assist, and gently nudge the customer toward the finish line."

This simple automation can recover a significant percentage of otherwise lost sales. Make sure your emails are on-brand, include clear calls-to-action, and make it easy for the customer to pick up right where they left off.
