Top Shopify Apps for BFCM 2021?

[Boost_Commerce]

Black Friday Cyber Monday (BFCM) generates massive online sales and last year Shopify merchants made $5.1 billion in global sales during the span of these 4 days. Every year, the event gets bigger, which is both good news and a major headache for store owners. Which ones are must-have Shopify apps that help you skyrocket conversions on BFCM 2021?

BFCM is always exciting and 2021's version is no exception!

I would say HypeCart is a great app for this!

A customers checkout experience starts with adding an item to their cart. Our Cart Drawer will display the items in a minimal and thoughtful way combined with any upsells, cross sells or progress bars you've created. You can customise these offers however you want with a lot of triggers! And after the sale is done, you can keep selling with HypeCart! 

The thank you page is one of the most underrated spaces for promotions. Once a customer reaches the thank you page it means they've decided to make a purchase and trust your brand - there really is no better place to show some great upsells and cross sells.

The thank you page will turn into an order confirmation page that Shopify emails to customers by default for example with shipping updates. Your widgets will still be there every time your customer visits the page.

You can customize your own thank you page with HypeCart's drag and drop builder, it's both easy and effective!

Hi there,

We created an app that analyses the performance of Google Ads and Facebook ad accounts, in order to improve results. We're creating new content related to Black Friday, based on previous years, which we will share with our clients. We've received great feedback from our customers, and would be honoured to start working with anyone who would like to maximise results over Black Friday.

What the app does (among other things):

1. LTV calculation and cohort analysis,
2. competitor analysis (see how big your competitors are and what they are doing on Facebook),
3. analysis of technical setup (red flags)
4. giving market benchmarks for advertising metrics and funnel data.

If this sounds interesting to you, the app can be found here.

Black Friday brings increased traffic to your store and this also means increased inquiries. For this reason, it's not only important to think about how to offer great deals but also focus on how to prepare your customer service team for the increased demand. 

The HelpCenter App comes in very handy for such cases. It combines in itself 4 main features to boost customer experience and offer quick and effective support.

1. FAQ Builder - So many customers prefer to find solutions to their problems on their own before reaching out to your customer service agents. Go over the main issues you faced around Black Friday the previous year and make sure these questions are answered on your FAQ section. 
2. Helpdesk Ticketing System - An absolute must for anyone dealing with many inquiries from multiple sources. Helpdesk conveniently combines all your inboxes, Facebook Messenger and live chat conversations, offers numerous automations and also shows you an overview of customers' previous purchase and inquiry history.
3. Live Chat - Especially during busy times, live chat comes in handy so customers could have solutions to their problems instantly.
4. Product Description Tags - Similarly to your FAQ section, organised product description tags will give customers a detailed overview of what you are selling and you will be able to save customer support agents' time as they don't have to answer to repetitive questions about certain products.

@Boost_Commerce Thanks for this resourceful thread!

This is for all Shopify sellers; if you're planning to increase sales during BFCM for 2021, one of the best strategies is to spread the word to more people, starting right from your website. 

Take advantage of all your channels, including your store, email campaigns, and social media platforms. 

Best Shopify Apps to boost Black Friday Cyber Monday Sales:

1. Octane AI, Quiz, Messenger, SMS

2. Popupsmart, Popups, Optin Forms, Floating Bars

3. Promo Video Maker

4. Stockbot low stock Forecasting

5. Reconvert Upsell & Cross Sell

6. Tidio Live Chat

7. Bulk Discount Code Generator

8. Instant Search, Filter, & Merchandising 

These are only some of the best ones I recall, but the list can go longer once you figure out your BFCM strategy. I'd recommend the following practices:

• Test & see if your website can handle high-volume traffic
• Observe your competitors BFCM efforts
• Get your inventory ready early
• Consider product trends related to the pandemic
• Sell gift cards
• Create an irresistible BFCM offer and use a popup to announce on your site

They best apps really depend on what you are trying to do, my main expertise is in marketing so I can go into some depth about that. If you are running ads or a marketing campaign in the lead up to Black Friday it is essential that you be able to effectively track and analyze which of your marketing channels are working best especially when compared against each other and when looking at how much money you're putting towards each channel.

Though Shopify does have tools built natively to help you with this they are quite rudimentary, they only provide first and last touch attribution models. If you run quite a bit of marketing campaigns across different ad channels I would highly recommend using something like Google Analytics or ThoughtMetric because they offer more accurate and robust marketing attribution models like Linear touch and Time Decay. They also offer a deeper experience when it comes to breaking down where you should be putting your ad dollars towards.
