How does ShareYourCart work?
As many of your clients, you have also shopped online before, so I'm sure you will relate to the following story:
Let's think about THAT specific moment when you find THE product that you want directly at the e-commerce website you love SOOO MUCH.
Even though it has just been released, they have it on stock, they can ship it in 24h and they have it in your favorite color BUT there is a... PROBLEM: it's a little over your budget. It's just the last percent that really counts for you.
When... you see THE SOLUTION!
Your favorite shop can give you the small discount that you need IF you can help them reach out to your friends and engage them.
How do you, as a customer, get the discount?
It's simple: you click on the ShareYourCart button.
Clicking the button let's all your friends know about the latest gadget you are going to buy. Basically, it shares the product via your favorite social networks.
Then you get the desired discount, without which you would have been forced to leave the shop you love to find a new place to make your purchase.
You will be automatically shown a coupon code directly in the ShareYourCart window. You can use the coupon code immediately in the checkout process.
*The coupon code is uniquely generated for that particular user, and can be used only once, so you don't have to worry about it being "borrowed" by someone else.
How many steps are involved in the process?
There are 3 simple steps:
- The user clicks on the ShareYourCart button that he can find on your product or checkout page
- He publishes your message via Facebook and / or Twitter
- He obtains the coupon code which he can use in the checkout process
Everything is automatic.
What discount works better?
Based on the buyer's psychology, using a percent discount like -10% has a bigger impact than simply having -$10.
Also, it's best to go for at least -10%, as this is a psychological treshold and the user might consider that it's not worth the effort.
Remarks: Take this information as a guideline, and test it out to see what works best for you and your clients.
