Overview: iTrack’s Mission and Ecomwedo’s Marketing Approach
iTrack, a Shopify app offering customizable order tracking solutions for e-commerce businesses, partnered with Ecomwedo, a leading E-commerce SaaS Growth and Development Agency, with the goal of acquiring new users and reducing churn.
Defining Objectives: iTrack’s Goals and Growth Aspirations
At the outset, iTrack had 1,327 users and aimed to attract new customers while addressing churn. Their goal was to significantly increase their user base and retain more customers through targeted marketing strategies.
The Marketing Strategy:
Crafting Cold Email Campaigns: Our Outreach Strategy
We crafted a cold email campaign targeting 1 million Shopify store owners. The series included:
- Email 1: Highlighting the challenges faced by e-commerce businesses in managing order tracking.
- Email 2: Introducing iTrack as a solution, supported by a detailed case study.
- Email 3: Sharing testimonials from satisfied users.
- Follow-ups: Three additional emails to unresponsive recipients to reinforce the message.
.
To safeguard iTrack’s domain reputation, we utilized a dedicated email domain for the campaign. Over three months, we sent approximately 8 million emails to ensure maximum reach and engagement.
Retargeting Ads: Maximizing Reach with Google and Facebook
In addition to email campaigns, we deployed retargeting ads on Google and Facebook to re-engage users who had shown interest. These ads reminded prospects of iTrack’s benefits and directed them to the app’s Shopify listing.
Lifecycle Emails: Building Long-term Engagement
To help reduce churn, we designed lifecycle emails tailored to various stages of the customer journey, including:
- Welcome emails and onboarding guides.
- Best practices for maximizing iTrack’s value.
- Renewal reminders to encourage subscription continuity.
Onboarding Checklist: This is a step-by-step guide that new users can follow to set up their accounts and begin using the app. It’s designed to ensure that users quickly understand the app’s key functionalities and see value from the very beginning. By guiding users through critical steps like connecting to Shopify, setting up tracking settings, and personalizing their experience, the checklist helps reduce friction and accelerates user adoption.
NPS (Net Promoter Score):
NPS is a customer satisfaction survey that asks users how likely they are to recommend the app to others, typically on a scale of 0 to 10. The score helps businesses gauge user sentiment and satisfaction. By regularly collecting NPS feedback, iTrack can identify areas for improvement and proactively address concerns, enhancing the overall user experience. Additionally, it helps segment users into promoters, passives, and detractors, allowing iTrack to take targeted actions to retain and engage users.Product Tours:
Product tours are interactive, guided walkthroughs that highlight key features of the app. They show users how to navigate the interface and use core functions, such as order tracking, customization options, or analytics dashboards. Product tours help users understand the app’s full potential and reduce the learning curve, ultimately driving higher engagement and satisfaction. These tours can be triggered when users first sign in or when new features are introduced.Update Announcements:
Regular update announcement emails notify users about new features, improvements, or bug fixes. These emails keep users informed about the latest developments in the app and show that iTrack is actively maintaining and improving the product. Regular updates can help retain users by demonstrating ongoing value and encouraging them to explore new functionality, which also enhances user satisfaction and reduces churn.Feature Tips:
Feature tips are contextually relevant emails or notifications that suggest ways users can maximize their use of the app. These tips focus on underutilized or advanced features and help users discover tools they might have missed. By sending personalized recommendations based on user behavior, iTrack can encourage users to engage more deeply with the app, increasing retention and satisfaction.
