cSo you two have now broken the ice, warmed up to each other and maybe you’ve even met the folks, but now it’s time for you to show your online store that you’re in it for the long haul. Learning how to manage your eCommerce website may seem like a daunting task, but with these simple tricks, you’ll be tying the knot in no time.


1. Communication is Key

Listen: This relationship is never going to work without communication. I know, I know, you hear it all the time, but what does that mean?

Well, try listening to what your customers have to say and responding with actionable changes. Your customers are the experts and they’re always right, so allow them to express their opinions.

 

For instance, check out the Shopper Approved App, which will give your customers a chance to express how they REALLY feel ;) In your website in on the UniformMarket platform, be sure to take a look at our official documentation of how to implement Apps like this one into your store.

Or, check out the abandoned orders. These are the shopping carts that shoppers started and left behind, without checking out. Be sure reach out to these customers specifically to let them know you’re still thinking about them and items are waiting for purchase in their shopping cart. Maybe even send a flower via email to romance them into finishing their order.



2. Make it a Date

Don’t forget to take time for each other. It takes two to maintain a successful online store - you and your shopper.

Set a schedule to check in with your store at least three times a week. The more often, the better. At UniformMarket, your website's dashboard makes it easy to see how your store is doing with just a glance. Dare I say love at first sight?

Keep tabs on what products your customers are buying, what categories are more popular so you can promote those items and where your website visitors are coming from. Simple, right?

 

3.Evolve and Grow

It happens to all of us. Other things start to take priority, you start to lose interest,  maybe you even forget about each other. It happens. But it’s time to change that!

Try researching some ecommerce tips, learn from others. An easy-to-read resource with good ideas is Practical Ecommerce.
