Site Buying Incentive From Basket To Checkout Widget
Discussion
Came across this http://ecommerce.aheadworks.com/magento-extensions...
as the nearest thing to a "come on you bugger buy it" incentive and to reduce our abandoned cart percentage however they have to register on your site first it seems its designed for regular customers not new ones which is nuts - we have asked them if they can mod it.
On the off chance does anyone know a better Magento plug in than this one ?

With electronics people tend to check and check prices again and again, its very price sensitive. If its a complicated set up say a large house with gate intercom we have no issues people just buy and we sell this stuff to AV companies anyway but for generic stuff where we cannot be the cheapest on everything all the time we need this "urger" to turn the basket into a checkout (our checkout is one page and bar the FB log in is state of the art) . Its basket abandonment not checkout leaving.
The trigger would be when an item is added to a basket they get a pop up that will say "free delivery" or "you have won a tuesday discount" or something possibly extra warranty.
I like the popularity urger however I haven't see a widget for that.

Nothing to do with this topic, but a little feedback....
Your twitter account favourited one of my tweets, so I followed you, then I sent a direct message about if you where able to provid a type of phone, but I never got a reply. Not a moan, just feed back!!
Hi that's interesting as (ashamedly) we don't manage our twitter its outsourced to a "social expert company" one of the biggest in Merseyside - they obviously have never had anyone respond (ever) but I will look into it to see what procedure they have - roughly how long ago was it?Your twitter account favourited one of my tweets, so I followed you, then I sent a direct message about if you where able to provid a type of phone, but I never got a reply.

That count down timer feels like he closest the Internet gets to high pressure selling. It would put me off and I would need a bigger incentive on such a high value purchase.
I never use Facebook to login to external sites. By all means offer it but don't make it the only option.
Your right I hate it this morning. Back to the drawing board.I never use Facebook to login to external sites. By all means offer it but don't make it the only option.

So your widget could be quite simple in essence. You'd have to identify on each product as to whether it was a complicated set up product whereby the urge isn't requred or a generic product that needs to give the basket user a push to checkout.The trigger would be when an item is added to a basket they get a pop up that will say "free delivery" or "you have won a tuesday discount" or something possibly extra warranty.

Could have a message appear when basket abandonment is detected or purely on a time basis. You'd configer what type of 'urge' offer to put on.
Can't be too difficult to integrate

I had a "hey, you didn't buy this thing you put in your basket" e-mail from a company I dealt with regularly not so long ago. It felt darn creepy and put me right off using them...
I agree its not ideal but many companies have used it to good effect, it will put some off but overall I think its a positive.Gassing Station | Business | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
