They are light-hearted, fun and almost expected sometimes, as there are various reasons why a customer may not complete a purchase.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But why are they fun? Why are they expected?

Well, let me tell you a thing or two&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"js-cro-guide-subheading gtm_heading \" data-level=\"level1\" data-menu=\"Why do businesses need to invest in Cart Abandonment Emails?\" id=\"why-do-businesses-need-to-invest-in-cart-abandonment-emails\" data-menu-id=\"why-do-businesses-need-to-invest-in-cart-abandonment-emails\" style=\"text-align:left\">Why do businesses need to invest in Cart Abandonment Emails?<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>So, you\u2019ve set up your ecommerce store, right?

Or, in other words, ads.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can take your team in endless brainstorming sessions, you can have your strategists rake their brains and your creative team work wonders, but there will be something missing, without a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.emailvendorselection.com\/email-automation-campaign-templates-funnel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cart abandonment email automation plan<\/a>. Cart abandoners are the most \u201cexpensive\u201d tribe of them all, as failing to re-engage them could be a lot like leaving money on the table.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, there are tools to help you design and implement strategies that will make even the most stubborn turn around and give you a happy smile.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Moosend, which is one of the best&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/moosend.com\/blog\/mailchimp-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mailchimp alternatives<\/a>, can give you the opportunity to combine every email marketing action, such as sending newsletters<strong> <\/strong>and transactional emails, such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/glossary\/cart-abandonment\/\">cart abandonment<\/a> emails we\u2019re talking about, all from one place.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAnd why would I need to do that?\u201d You\u2019ll ask.

Unsurprisingly, tourism is the first one to have been hit, which is completely normal, seeing as a booking can be impulsive but deciding on a destination cannot be which leads to customers abandoning their carts. The tourism sector is closely followed by online retailers at 75%.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also, unsurprisingly enough, the <a href=\"https:\/\/vwo.com\/ebooks\/cart-abandonment\/\">cart abandonment rate<\/a> for all sectors is very high. 75.6% high, to be exact. Which leads us to the following question: Why would a person be so quick to abandon their cart in the first place?&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pure, square logic indicates that since a visitor bothered with putting something in their cart, they want to buy, right?<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wrong!<br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"639\" height=\"611\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/reasons-for-cart-abandonment.png\" alt=\"reasons for cart abandonment\" class=\"wp-image-46305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/reasons-for-cart-abandonment.png 639w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/reasons-for-cart-abandonment.png?tr=w-375 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, 639px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Source: Salecycle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Most users add items in their cart just to keep them in one place while looking around. Kind of being in a big department store and looking at a shirt you\u2019re not exactly in love with but wouldn\u2019t mind trying on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve done the same thing a billion times because an item was on sale and I wanted to have it in my cart so that nobody else could access it (silly me!). I\u2019ve also done the same thing in order to calculate shipping costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These two facts don\u2019t indicate an intention to buy. Hence the need for cart abandonment emails.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The cart, to be honest, was over and done with as soon as I could see that the shipping costs were too high for my liking. I belonged to that 23% the above stat shoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, fellow marketer, how would you entice a customer like me? What kind of email would you make sure I received?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And before you claim that an email is not the product so why would anyone be convinced through that email if they weren\u2019t convinced by the product, blah, blah, I\u2019ve got more numbers for you:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"353\" src=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/power-of-cart-abandonment-emails.png\" alt=\"an infographic to show the power of abandoned cart emails\" class=\"wp-image-46306\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/power-of-cart-abandonment-emails.png 512w, https:\/\/static.wingify.com\/gcp\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/08\/power-of-cart-abandonment-emails.png?tr=w-375 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Oberlo<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>It seems like cart abandonment emails are doing pretty well, seeing as just three of them can result in a 69% increase of orders, as the stat above shows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But this won\u2019t happen just because you sent out a cart abandonment email and called it a day.

Imagine the dialogue here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Did you have a problem with your purchase?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-No, I didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>-Are you unsure about your order?

Which really is the whole point, as we don\u2019t want things to seem like a big deal. Baby steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal here is not to go for the hard sell, but to re-engage the customer by being the brand that misses them and wants to interact with them. Your copy doesn\u2019t need to be too strong for something like that and there needs to be as little pressure as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you\u2019ll need to entice them a little, just to make them buy.
