List building with discount

Having a newsletter signup is more or less a requirement for eCommerce businesses these days. To make the most of this signup, businesses usually offer some type of incentive to get the visitor to convert. The most common motivation is a percentage discount on their purchase, usually 5-15%. Consumers are more likely to subscribe to a newsletter if they know that they can get a discount or some other win for doing so. 

Target audience: New or unidentified visitors

List building without discount

Some of you eCom business out there doesn’t want to work with percentage discounts. If you are one of them, a good option is offering something more static – like free delivery, a specific amount of discount (eg. 5€), or other incentives that don’t vary depending on the total order value. This will keep the sense of urgency and encourage people to act quickly, without eating up your margins.

Target audience: New or unidentified visitors

Competitions and Raffles

If there’s anything that everyone likes, it’s the chance to win something. You can take advantage of this by using contests or raffles in your signup. Common things to raffle are gift cards, coupons, or products. Raffles are exciting and fun, and we can guarantee that they will boost your newsletter conversion rate.

Collect members to your “exclusive” club

Another approach to having a signup without specific discounts or offers is offering something exclusive. Limiting access to certain content or features on your site can encourage more visitors to sign up for the newsletter. The sense of exclusivity creates a feeling of urgency and encourages visitors to “join the club” and give you their email right away. Having an exclusive membership “club” also helps to build a stronger relationship with your customers and encourages them to return to your website in the future.

Target audience: New or unidentified visitors

Influencer Welcoming

If you are working with influencer collaborations – they usually have a UTM-tagged link that leads to the site (if you don’t UTM-tags, start doing so ASAP). By creating campaigns targeted to those UTM tags, containing the same offer that the influencer is announcing – you will create a sense of unity between the channels. At the same time, you will make it easier for the visitor to quickly grab that discount the influencer is offering. Win-win!

Target audience: Visitors coming from specific UTM links

Delivery Counter

If you have a specific date or time that orders have to be made in order to be delivered on time, you can use this to set clear customer expectations. If you tell customers that orders placed by 3 pm will be delivered the next day, they will likely be happy with that. But if you don’t set any expectations and then orders placed at 3 pm are not delivered until two days later, customers will be disappointed. By using a counter, you are setting clear expectations for customers and letting them know exactly when they can expect their order to arrive.

When advertising online, the links to your website are usually UTM-tagged. This opens up a great opportunity to create unity between your ads and your website.
