Hi guys,
Just started a new shopify store and would appreciate some feedback if possible from the community .
I make and sell wooden signs/plaques...my link is bellow
Thank you in advance 🙂
Dear @luis_cc
Congratulations on your store!
Hope the following suggestions will help you.
Hello @luis_cc, congrats on the new store. Here are some ways to make your store even better and make people want to purchase:
- Add a banner image or slider images in the first fold of the homepage with a call to action button on it.
- Add a section of trending wood plaques, New wood plaques on the home page.
- Add shipping, return & refund policy in the footer.
- Add a referral program, it helps in increasing sales and creates brand awareness. You can ask your customers to refer a product to their friends and family. When the product is referred by some known, people tend to purchase the product.
- You can start giving loyalty points to your customers on different activities like signing up, visiting a store, making a purchase, allowing for push notifications, sharing or following on social media. This will help you to entice your customers and retain them. You can reward your customers in order to redeem those points. When you will give points to them they will come again in the future to make a purchase in order to redeem those points. This encourages repeat purchases which increase sales and help in retaining your customers.
- Add a web push notification - It turns visitors into subscribers and subscribers into customers. It’s a powerful and effective marketing tool adopted by online businesses to reach out to and interact with their audience, keep them updated about any important information, announcing sales and offers, and eventually driving more eCommerce conversions.
- Add exit-intent popup. Track when someone is about to leave your website and show the visitor exit-intent popup with attractive offers and coupon code to complete the purchase.
If you would like to implement the above features/ customer engagement or marketing tools in your store. I would recommend you to try out the all in one Shopify app AiTrillion. I am sure you will find it useful.
Hope this Helps!
Hi @luis_cc,
Congratulations on running an online business on Shopify! It’s been a rough time with the pandemic out there, so I hope your store is still making profit. Your wooden products look really interesting, and I love the romantic vibe your store shows - You have done a great job there!
As there’s always room for improvement, so for recommendations, I have some comments if you are interested:
1, Choose a suitable layout for your product list. Having too much blank space makes it feel like you have only a few products. For this section, you can choose a 3-column layout for 2 rows to reduce the blank space
Besides, I recommend you broaden product images - it allows customers to have a closer look at what you sell.
2, Consider using another font for content. The decorative font family you are using work perfectly for headings, but it makes content illegible. Try san serif fonts like Helvetica, Ample, Futura,...
Make sure customers can read your content within just a quick glance.
3, Combine the Previous Orders section with Reviews section. This helps the testimonials section look more professional, trustworthy and connected. Try adding reviews under each of the order images.
4, Add Shipping Policy and Refund Policy to the Footer Menu. These are 2 types of information that are vital to online purchasing. It also shows that you care about customers’ safety in online shopping.
Above are some of my recommendations for your store, hope you can find them helpful! You can give it a like if you find it useful or mark as the solution if it answers your question.
Hope your business is successful and gain more sales everyday!
Cheers!
