Wednesday, December 6, 2023

NEW YORK, Nov. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Feel, a leading provider of conversational sales technology and service platform for eCommerce, has just released its latest Conversational Sales Commerce: Benchmark Report. The report explores how top brands respond to live sales questions from online shoppers to increase loyalty and drive more sales and revenue. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the impact and methods used to engage with live online shoppers and the growing need to humanize the customer journey. You can also follow Feel's report as posted on Twitter and LinkedIn.
Online shopping has become the preferred method for many consumers, providing a more accessible and convenient way to purchase products. Despite this shift from traditional brick-and-mortar stores, shoppers still desire human assistance to complete many online orders.
Conversational commerce has become an important strategy for brands to maximize sales and build brand loyalty. By providing customers with more personalized shopping experiences, they can express more empathy by proactively connecting with customers in meaningful ways.
Feel's Benchmark Report contains insightful data offering a clear view of how leading brands leverage AI, support, and sales team strategies to engage, delight, and convert more shoppers into loyal repeat purchasers. The research highlights the overall performance of different brands and underscores the importance of providing more humanized and engaging experiences tailored to the individual.
Serving as a reliable benchmark for online retailers-- the report lets brands gauge their performance and gain insight into potential improvements and benefits from high-level conversational sales commerce.
Key findings include:
-- Proactively closing sales directly impacts average order value (AOV) and
revenue. A brand's sales proactiveness directly impacts revenue and AOV
generated from each interaction. Depending on the method a brand uses
for conversational commerce (sales bots, support teams, or sales team)
will determine the brand's ability to drive sales through engagements.
On average, sales associates will be 24% more likely to drive sales than
support and 41% more likely than sales bots.
-- Recommendations reduce decision fatigue and provide a personalized
experience for shoppers. Recommendations are powerful tools for brands
to offer more targeted and specialized products. It reduces the time
customers spend searching for what they need and demonstrates an
understanding of their needs. Brands should leverage first-party data to
understand their customers better and meet them at their moment of
inspiration to offer personalized recommendations and experiences.
-- Providing more expensive or complimentary products through upsells can
increase AOV and revenue significantly. Using upsells in conversational
commerce is a great way to boost revenue and profit while enhancing the
customer experience. Customers value personalization, and upsells are
another way of providing targeted products that customers will enjoy.
Brands that take advantage of upselling in conversational commerce can
often see revenue and AOV increase by 15%.
-- Conversion rates increase when brands offer checkout assistance.
Checkout assistance is the bread and butter of sales and can increase
conversion rates. Customers bypass hangups and are provided a more
personalized 1:1 experience by simplifying the checkout process. Brands
that offer checkout assistance in their conversational commerce channels
can capitalize on increased conversion rates and reduce their cart
abandonment rates.
"Customer support & sales require very different skill sets & expertise. Brands and products with high consideration and average order values demand a much more humanized shopping experience," said Oren Harnevo, CEO of Feel. As the industry evolves and brands realize that sales and support are not the same, brands must begin to provide more personalized and engaging shopping experiences based on their unique product offering.
The complete Conversational Sales Commerce: Benchmark Report is available for download, offering valuable insights for eCommerce and retail brands seeking to increase AOV and conversion rates through a more comprehensive conversational sales experience.
Jon MacDonald-CEO of "The Good," puts it perfectly, "Success in the online marketplace doesn't hinge solely on conversions - it hinges on the entire digital journey leading to that conversion, from the moment a customer enters your site to follow up after the product has been delivered. Success comes from understanding and interacting with your customer along that journey."
