How effective are thank you videos for increasing customer return rate?

I’ve found that shops on IG and Etsy and get more than a 40% increase in return sales when they send thank you videos to their customers. Normally, 25-30% customers return, but when you start sending videos, the return is huge!

This means, for every 10 sales you make, 4 or 5 of them will return just because you thanked them personally.

If you’re doing a lot of sales, it’s hard to make personal videos like this - but I’ve been building some software to let you automatically generate these videos when they make a sale. It will look and sound like you made it just for them.

Here’s a demo video I made for a friend named Courtney: https://vimeo.com/510865162/c3dd3a78e3

What do you all think? Would you want a Shopify app to let you start doing this on your own shop?

I’ve been sending out videos to my customers on various platforms for the past several months now and I’ve noticed a huge difference in return sales! The main issue is that it’s been really time consuming. This sounds like it could solve that problem? Is there a place I could go to see more about this product, if it works I think this would be super helpful for me.

Hey TinyTim! That’s exactly what I’m hoping to solve with this.

I’m gonna put up a website about it soon and will respond here, but please email me - pranay@windsor.io.

I can let you try it out and send out a bunch of free videos to see if it helps you with retuning customers :slightly_smiling_face:
