Step 1 of 6

The Cost of Checkout Abandonment

Checkout abandonment is a critical issue, especially for distributors in the appliance sector. When a shopper considers a £700 appliance but finds limited delivery options, they may abandon their cart in favour of a competitor with more comprehensive services. This not only results in lost sales but also diminishes customer trust and loyalty, making it harder to win them back in the future.

Step 2 of 6

How Poor Delivery Options Bleed Margins

Every abandoned cart represents not just a lost sale but also a potential customer relationship. With the increase in online shopping, consumers expect convenience, including two-person delivery and installation services. Without these options, distributors risk sending customers to competitors who offer a more attractive checkout experience, further eroding profit margins.
