Add-ons after purchase

Repeat purchase is a goal pursued by every eCommerce business because the more repeat purchases there are, the more revenue is generated by each existing customer. To achieve this, tell your customers about products that are related to those they have previously bought to encourage complementary purchases. 

In this article, you’ll learn how to create a post-purchase email with complementary products.
