<\/strong>The dotmailer Magento extension is a versatile and comprehensive email and multi-channel marketing platform that enables you to reach your customers through some of today\u2019s most popular communication channels: email, SMS and push notifications.
One of its most useful attributes is its ability to synchronise a wide range of valuable visitor and customer data. This includes, browsing history, shopping cart contents, order data and wish list information. This important data enables you to create marketing campaigns that present individual customers with highly personalised information and offers that are relevant to them. dotmailer also lets you send transactional communications too, such as welcome, post-purchase and loyalty emails.<\/li>\r\n

<\/strong>Over 70% of shoppers will read a review before making a purchase and 60% of them prefer to buy from sites which have customer reviews. This makes customer-generated reviews highly valuable assets. The more reviews you have, the more other customers trust their accuracy. At the same time, reviews give you unparalleled insight into the products and services you offer, enabling you to improve your service and curate your stock in ways which make it more appealing.
Using the Yotpo Magento Extension<\/a> is a great way to help you encourage your customers to leave product reviews for other shoppers and, as a result, boost the number of products you sell.
Not only does Yotpo increase the number of reviews, it also presents them in a visually attractive way, both on your website and on social media.<\/li>\r\n

It\u2019s a well-known fact that the more complicated you make the checkout process, the more customers you lose along the way. That\u2019s why Amazon patented its one-click purchasing solution way back in 1997.

You\u2019ll also benefit from the extension\u2019s fully responsive layout, which make buying much easier for the ever-increasing number of customers who shop on their smartphones. It also works with a variety of payment gateways, including PayPal, Sage Pay and Brain Tree.<\/li>\r\n

<\/strong>Online chat is an exceptionally useful tool for eCommerce sites. It enables you to answer customer\u2019s questions about products whilst they are still on your site, in real-time. This makes it a far more agile communication channel than email or telephone.
Using online chat is a great way to deliver customer service. It can ensure the customer gets the right product for their needs and budget and can prevent them leaving your site if the questions they need answers to are not immediately available.
The Zendesk Live Chat extension provides a responsive chat widget that can be configured to respond to visitor behavior. This means that besides the visitor contacting you, you can message them at key times during their visit. It also provides analytics that track how visitors use your site.<\/li>\r\n
