The 1-2 Punch to get more new Customers and more Repeat Purchases.

Your customers are your greatest asset

The one thing shared across all great ecommerce companies is a large, loyal customer base. The keys to building that kickass customer base are well known, but easier said than done:

Getting new customers

Turning each new customer into a high LTV fanatic.

Acquiring new customers is top-of-mind and top-of-spend for most ecommerce companies we speak to every day.

But, there’s something that we don’t see happening enough, and that’s getting the most out of each customer to accelerate growth.

Focusing on building great customers, who will then in turn help you get more new customers causes a snowball effect and accelerates your growth. That’s the 1-2 punch.

 

A self-feeding engine of growth

Here we look at using Alliioop and ReferralCandy, to gain more first-time customers and then turn them into repeat purchasers that increase overall LTV and drive explosive growth.

The chart below shows the amazing growth impact of repeat purchases. Getting from 1 purchase to 3.5 purchases per customer per year will drive your growth and margins–almost 20x over five years.

It’s the difference between a slow growth grind and an accelerating rocket.

The reality is, you cannot do this without customer referrals or a deep understanding of your customers and their behavior allowing you to better serve them.

To rely too heavily on paid customer acquisition is not sustainable.

 

Turn your customers into referrers – and better customers – with ReferralCandy

At ReferralCandy, they think of your existing customer base as your best source of new customer acquisition.

If you are an ecommerce merchant, you already know the importance of getting word-of-mouth sales on your online store.

If your product is able to solve your customers’ needs and you provide them with a great shopping experience, it’s very likely that they will recommend you to their friends and family.

If you don’t have a referral program, however, there’s very little you can do to encourage your customers to keep referring you to their friends and family. Think of your customers like your best salespeople:

1. They know your future customers personally
2. They are recommending products and services in an altruistic way
3. They are trustworthy to their audience

There are several studies proving that referral programs help businesses get better customers (they’re more profitable, they’re less likely to leave, and they have higher lifetime value) but you can also use them to build loyalty with your existing clients.

Your customers will keep you in mind for future recommendations – but also for future purchases.

ReferralCandy makes it very easy to set up an effective referral program, reducing friction on the customer end and improving the customer experience.

Choose your rewards – cash, store credit, discounts, or free products, easily share your program through email and on-site pop-ups and that’s it!

ReferralCandy allows a scalable and highly cost-effective channel to drive new customer acquisition. Once they become a customer, Alliioop enables you to drive more effective and timely engagements with your customers and increase repeat purchases.

 

Building a kickass customer base just got easier

Building a large, loyal customer base takes time and effort–and both art and science. It requires that you understand what makes customers tick–and what doesn’t.

It’s not always about sending discounts and special offers, though those do work.

Referrals are one part, but you must also deliver well-timed content, advice, product recommendations, as well as those special offers to add value, build appreciation and drive loyalty. That’s exactly why we created Alliioop.

Getting results with Alliioop

Alliioop is will make you more effective in doing the two most important things for growing your loyal customer base.

Sell more to your existing customers by automatically sending emails and Facebook ads at the right moment triggered on data and behavior–not hope and luck.

Attract more customers that are just like your best customers by building a Facebook Custom

Audience with your high-lifetime customers and attract more of the same.

 

Make your Shopify site soar

Getting started and realizing results is easy with our Shopify and Facebook integrations. Plus our pre-built reports and segments come to life right after you turn it on, with these key capabilities:

• Reporting: We’ve pre-built a suite of reports that will show you everything from high-level conversion metrics, to campaign performance, LTV and the details of every customer path. You get insights highlighting what you should do next to increase conversions.
• Segmentation: Sending highly targeted messages requires powerful segmentation. You can segment on anything and the segments are dynamic–meaning people are added and removed from segments in real-time–not stale, static lists.
• Facebook: Keeping your Facebook Custom Audiences fresh and on target is cumbersome. We automatically add and remove people from your Facebook Custom Audiences based on their behavior. This keeps your audiences fresh and your ads more on target–and effective.
• Anonymous user tracking: We can show you what users did before they gave you their email address. So you get the real-time-to-purchase picture and can personalize welcome messages with products they previously viewed or abandoned.
• Automation: Driving all these engagements requires serious automation. Alliioop monitors all your customer behavior and triggers the engagements automatically. So as you build more granular targeting over time, we manage all the delivery so you can scale.
