Every year, the influx of online visitors continues to rise as more brands are going digital.
This reality is also supported by the increasing number of merchants optimizing their sites for mobile shopping.
Why so? The demand is there! In fact, an estimated 1.8 billion people worldwide purchase items online.
That’s surprisingly good news for eCommerce store owners. Yet the victory doesn’t stop in having millions of visitors per year. A successful conversion is a key to lasting business progress.
A platform that hosts thousands of e-shops mainly in Czech and Slovak markets is Shoptet. It has over 3.5 million visitors annually and their sales growth is seen to have risen rapidly over the years.
In this article, I’ll share how you can further accelerate the growth of your Shoptet store by converting visitors into customers effectively using pop ups!
Why Pop Ups?
If you haven’t tried pop ups on your Shoptet store, I hope this article will encourage you to!
You might be missing out on this easy to implement and highly effective tool when it comes to lead capture and customer acquisition. With tools like Poptin, you can create your own popups fast and equip it with all the necessary features for better results.
Pop ups are mainly used to convert visitors into customers, subscribers, or leads, whichever works for you. By the way, did you know that almost 70% of your visitors leave their carts? That’s quite a huge chunk of money wasted after all! Yet, pop ups have the potential to rescue 20% of your abandoned carts, making way for more sales on your part as a business owner.
Moreover, pop ups have been proven effective in minimizing lead cost by 50%, especially if you want to improve your email marketing, newsletters, and other forms of lead nurturing.

Converting Visitors into Customers
Now, here are the most common (and effective) ways to convert visitors into customers in your Shoptet store!
-
Surprise your first-time visitors with an exclusive coupon
This is the best way to create a lasting first impression with your first-time visitors. They will be encouraged to take advantage of the discount as it won’t be available again next time.
-
Remind them to complete their purchase
Exit-intent technology is a surefire way to encourage visitors to take a second look at their carts. This allows you to show an exit pop up once a visitor is about to exit from your online store. You may offer additional discounts, coupons, and other enticing offerings so they will continue with their purchase or give their email addresses.

Customize your targeting rules
You can’t talk in the same language to everyone. Segment your audience and know where to reach them.
If your product is only available for iOS users, then don’t waste your time showing popups for Android users. Same as when your prospects are located in a specific country. By customizing your targeting options, you have greater chances of acquiring more paying customers and qualified leads.
-
Make everything easy for customers
Don’t ask for too much information. Just the important stuff. If you can, get only the email address. Or their phone numbers if you’re into SMS marketing too. Complicated fields slow down conversion and might not work positively in the long run.
Pop ups are also a great way to give helpful information, such as redirecting them to a Black Friday landing page, download page, and sign up page, among others.

-
Create urgency
