The Power of Post-Purchase Experience
Hamish emphasizes the often-overlooked importance of the post-purchase experience. Traditional eCommerce models often focus on the pre-purchase stage. This neglects the potential for increased customer satisfaction and sales after the purchase. The Order Editing tool provides a solution to enhance this often-overlooked part of the customer journey.
The Value of Customer Autonomy
Customers want control. Allowing them to change their orders after they’ve bought something shows that you care about their needs. Whether fixing an address, swapping a product, or upgrading shipping, giving them options can make them feel valued. This can lead to loyal customers who think positively about your brand.
The Potential for Upselling and Increased Revenue
Hamish points out that you can also sell more stuff to customers after they’ve already bought something. By offering extra products or services, you can take advantage of their interest and maybe get them to spend more. This works well when you suggest specific things they might like and offer deals that only last for a short time.
