Increase Your Holiday Checkout Conversions with Sustainability 🌳

It may not feel like it, but the holiday season is fast approaching. During the 2022 holiday season, ecommerce sales are expected to grow 15.5% to $236 billion compared to 2021. Did you also know that 77% of consumers are looking to shop from brands that care about the environment? Is your business prepared to capitalize on your traffic this Q4? If you want to make your brand stand out from the rest this holiday season, turn increased traffic into higher conversions, AND then retain more customers into the new year, plant trees with Ecodrive.

Brands that have callouts on their websites and throughout their checkout process announcing that they plant a tree with every order see, on average, a 17% increase in their conversion rates. Pair that with the average traffic lift to your site during the holidays. Grow revenue, grow your customer base, and grow trees in support of our planet with your customers.

After you make your holiday sales, you have a unique opportunity to re-engage your customers by sending follow-up emails with information about the trees they helped plant, just in time for when your customers should re-up. Emails like these receive high open rates and are a friendly way to re-engage customers while drawing them back into the funnel to repurchase. This strategy helps you not only increase retention, but also builds brand loyalty and ultimately, LTV.

During the holiday season customers will love that buying a gift from your brand will also plant a tree, a bonus gift, which they can tell whoever they bought the gift for all about. Now you have two people who are excited about both your product and the trees! 

If you want your customers to remember your brand even after they’ve forgotten their New Year's resolutions, start planting trees with Ecodrive today. Setup takes only minutes and climate action will be available at the click of a button!
