Cart recovery before abandonment for anonymous contacts

There are strategies we can use to recover abandoned carts even if we don't have the contact’s email address to send them a follow-up email, i.e. when the contact is anonymous. To reduce your abandoned cart rate and increase sales, you can detect when this type of user is about to leave the website with one or more products in their cart and show them a popup to try keep them engaged.

In this article you’ll learn how to create a popup before the user abandons a cart.

  

Objective: Conversion.
Difficulty: Beginner.
When to use it: Anytime. 

  

This strategy is part of our pool of templates. To implement it in your account, log in to your Connectif account and go to "Workflows Create new workflow". In the Create from template section, enter the name of the workflow (Cart recovery before abandonment for anonymous contacts) in the search engine then click Select and Create.

 

How it works

For this strategy, we will configure a workflow with popup content that encourages the contact to complete their purchase. This will appear on any page when a contact is about to leave the website on desktop, or after a period of time without purchasing on mobile.
