SMS Conversations

SMS Conversations

SMS has 98% of engagement rate—it’s because people use it daily to have real-time conversations with their friends and family. That’s why 2-way text messaging is needed for you as an online store to talk and serve your customers real-time.

Chatting with your customers via text messages is available in AVADA now. This function allows you to see the incoming texts and instantly respond to your subscribers.

That said, moving from one-way SMS to two-way conversations helps improve customer engagement and retention rates significantly.

Auto-expired coupons

Allow the coupon codes to expire in 24 hours after you send out your email, which creates the urgency for your customers to buy!

Now, this function is ready on AVADA, you can set up the expiration for your discount in hours or days. Currently, this applies to Automation workflows. So each time an email is sent out, the expiration will count. This also makes your store reputation, trust increased on your customers’ eyes.

New Form Type: Multi-step Popup

Multi-step Popup

Multi-step form means a sign-up form with more than one page. Why use it?

  • Higher customer engagement as it breaks down the form into smaller segments, to reduce the question overload for the visitor
  • 86% higher conversions because it’s practical yet simple and doesn’t intimidate the visitor with an overwhelming list of questions.
  • Collect more secure and quality leads

See the guide to set up this kind of popup here.

New Email Editor Type: HMTL Codes
