Imagine this...
Your customers added a lot of products to their cart.
And that's a good thing, right?
But what if they just leave their carts without completing their transactions with you?
In short, they abandon their carts!
Uh-oh!
That sounds like a problem, especially if it's not only one, two, or three customers.
But that's what we'll talk about today.
You don't have to worry because if you have an eCommerce theme that has terrific tools to help you, you're lucky!
And if you're already using the Debutify theme... these tools are just one click away.
If not, you’ll see how these Add-Ons will help you reduce your cart abandonment rate and boost conversion on your eCommerce site...
And you'll want to revamp your website and change your theme.
So, let's start!
What Is Cart Abandonment Rate?
Cart "abandonment" means your customers didn't finish their transaction with you.
They added your products to their carts but didn't checkout.
Consider it as shopping at a physical store, then abandoning the cart at a random stall.
That's cart abandonment. And there are many reasons why it happens to business owners.
Let's see what are those.
What Are The Common Reasons For Cart Abandonment?
1. Complicated Checkout
If physical customers won't line up for long... then this is the same thing for online customers.
A long and complicated checkout process might annoy them.
Even if they're willing to complete their purchase, they might not do it because they hate hassle checkouts.
That's why you need an uncomplicated checkout process because it makes your customers' lives easier.
And it's a win-win because you also get sales.
Sounds amazing, right?
Another reason for cart abandonment is...
2. Unexpected Fees
Surprises are supposed to make someone happy...
But surprising and unexpected fees don't. ?
In fact, 60% of customers abandon their cart because of unexpected costs.
So, if you want your online shoppers to complete their transactions with you... you need to avoid hidden or unexpected fees.
The next one is...
3. No Discount Codes Or Free Delivery
Customers love discounts and free delivery.
Well, 60% of customers expect free shipping when shopping online.
That's why expect them to abandon their carts if you're not offering them free shipping or discounts!
Now, you're probably wondering...
Why should you be alarmed if you have a high cart abandonment rate?
Why High Cart Abandonment Rate Should Alarm You?
1. You Might Not Have Enough Loyal Customers
If you have a high cart abandonment rate, it's time to reassess your current customer base.
Because customer loyalty is important in growing your business.
So, ask yourself... are your customers coming back to your eCommerce store?
If yes, do they proceed to checkout and complete their transaction?
If not, you need to think of ways to improve your customer loyalty.
You have to check every aspect of your marketing strategy and website because one of them might be affecting the results.
Another reason why cart abandonment should alarm you is...
2. You Will Have A Low Conversion Rate
As a business owner, one of your goals is making sales, right?
But having a high cart abandonment rate could also mean you're having a low conversion rate because customers are not completing their purchases.
And we don't want that for any eCommerce store!
That's why as soon as possible, you need to curb your cart abandonment rate to boost conversion on your eCommerce site.
And lastly...
3. Your First-Time Customers Might Not Trust Your eCommerce Store Yet
If your shopping cart abandoners are mostly first-time buyers... this is probably one of the reasons why.
And this is one of the most common problems for first-time buyers.
Of course, they're not going to trust your eCommerce store yet.
But you see, this is totally normal for first-time buyers. Because they either want to try your eCommerce store firsthand or see actual product reviews.
You need to gain their trust... and you'll find out how later! ?
