At @convertflow, we recently helped a DTC furniture brand: πŸ“ˆ Inc. opt-in rate on their welcome popup by 235% (2.3% β†’ 7.7%) πŸ€“ while collecting purchase-intent data to use in future marketing campaigns How? Through collection-specific offers. Here's the breakdown πŸ‘‡
The Baseline Standard practice with welcome offers is to just offer a sitewide discount in exchange for email address and/or phone number. This was being done through a simple "$50 off first order" offer. (Note: We switched out the logo in order to not reveal the brand yet)
The Hypothesis The original converted at 2.3%β€”not great. We figured we could get this up by making the offer: β€’ More relevant β€’ More compelling Creating different offers for the brand's various store collections might be a good place to start.
The Experiment We created a new popup specifically for a top-selling sofa collection line called "Feathers." When someone is browsing Feathers, they get a welcome offer specific to this collection:
The great thing about specific offers like this is that you can tweak: β€’ Messaging & copy β€’ Imagery β€’ Even the offer itself for each collection (X% discount vs. $ off vs. free gift, etc.) BTW here's a great guide on this from @realscottmcleod πŸ‘‡ convertflow.com/blog/how-to-craft-offers
The Result The original generic discount popup converted at 2.3%. While this new, more relevant offer converts at 7.7%β€”a 3.3x increase πŸ”₯ But, that's not even the best part...
A collection-specific opt-in means the brand knows more about what the shopper is interested inβ€”valuable data when you have a broad furniture catalog like this. This means: πŸ“§ Segmented welcome flows πŸ‘• More relevant product recs πŸš€ Increased revenue from subscribers
The Next Steps All in all, this was deemed highly successful by the brand πŸ™Œ We're currently rolling it out across other collections and experimenting with offers. ⚠️ It's key to TEST first. Even if subscribe rate goes up for you, make sure you're also driving more revenue!
