How Automated Ecommerce Tools Equal Stronger Sales

Have you gotten caught up in ‘making sales’ rather than ‘how to make sales’? Sometimes we hit a wall before realizing it’s time to make a change.

Hit a Brick Wall?  Let’s Knock it Down!

If people aren’t visiting your website as much as they should, aren’t adding products to the cart, or haven’t become repeat customers – then let’s take a look at one high-performing ecommerce tool designed to help your business build stronger sales.

What are Ecommerce Tools?

Ecommerce tools are software features that enhance online shopping websites and make the process easier for businesses to list, sell, and ship products, market to target groups, engage effectively on social media, and provide better overall customer service.

These software features can include online shopping carts, inventory management, order fulfillment, email marketing, and social media management.

How to Enhance Your Online Store with Ecommerce Marketing Automation

Ecommerce marketing boosts the efficiency of specific facets of your ecommerce business, and helps you drive traffic to your website, refine your sales path, and accelerate your lead nurturing process – allowing you to do less work.

Ecommerce marketing automation will:

  • Automate abandoned carts.
  • Automate reviews.
  • Automate customer support.
  • Collect leads.
  • Welcome new customers.
  • Streamline better customer service.
  • Etc, etc, etc.

If you run an online store, chances are most of your customer data is stored on your ecommerce platform. Make use of this valuable information by integrating it into your email marketing.

Some online email marketing platforms may have built-in ecommerce enhancements. Here’s an example of how easy it is to connect your online store to email marketing, process provided by Constant Contact:
