CONTENT

synonymous with Christmas. - Push maximum messaging, on the in-app deals,
around the festive season.

SHOPPING EXPERIENCE
- To aid shoppers in making an informed decision,
ensure accurate in-app product data hi-res
images. - Dont make customer to wait in queue to get query
resolved, instead make a live chat option in your
app especially when its a festive season. - Give customers a unique experience by giving 100
order fulfillment guarantee. The same experience
helped Amazon to get over 3 million prime user
last Christmas.

ease of checkout in your app, as 40 of online
sales are lost due to friction during the
checkout process. - To improve the checkout performance, make sure
that Alpha/ Beta testing is conducted on regular
bases. - Get complete control over the payments by having
your own payment gateway. For instance Apple pay,
is a proprietary payment gateway of Apple which
allows iPhone users to make several payments
conveniently.
8Step 5 DEEP LINKING for more app visits
- Drive traffic to specific pages in your app with
deep linking. - Every customer touch point must link back to your
app it can be from promotional mails, social
media posts to website content, everything should
redirect customers to app pages.
- Google targeting is crucial as its the place
most people go to first when looking for a gift. - Ensure that you seed contextual gifting guides
across the well-known blogs and news-sites so
that your app is SEO optimized.

presence OMNI-CHANNEL EXPERIENCE
- Its important to have a unified digital and
physical customer experience. - From sale features to products festive campaign
messaging, you need to maintain connection
between physical and in-app features. - It would help to have added offers/features in
the app. This will incentive visits on the app. - For instance, the Ali Express app has the greater
discounts for in-app purchases than on the
website. All you need to do is download the app
scan the QR code on the webpage with it. You are
then taken to the app page of the product with
special offers.
