With the Custom Thank You Pages extension, you can create custom thank you pages for each product in your WooCommerce store. Many eCommerce sites overlook the importance of the thank you page, but it can actually be a powerful tool for building customer loyalty and driving sales. After all, customers have just made a purchase and are likely feeling positive about their experience with your store.
Upsell to Your Customers
When knowing exactly what a customer purchased a more personal experience can be created to upsell the customer to purchase again with your business.
Show Related Products
The Thank You page is one of the pages that customers pay the most attention to. This greater attention also means a greater opportunity for you to provide more value to the customer and a long-lasting positive experience.
Showing related products based on what someone just purchased is incredibly powerful. The customer may not order it right away, but they will remember your store next time they need it.
Provide an Amazing Onboarding Experience
You can also use your custom thank you page to provide an amazing onboarding experience for your customers. If you sell downloadable products, you could provide a link to download the product right away. If you sell physical products, you could provide more details about the product and offer tips for using it.
Thank You Page After Purchasing A Digital Product
After purchasing a digital product, showing how to download it is the most important thing. Right now this is shuffled away as something small and insignificant, but with relevant information this experience can be greatly improved.
Get More Newsletter Subscribers
You could consider asking people to sign up on the cart or checkout pages, but you and I both know the checkout should be as short and simple as possible. Adding a newsletter subscription popup is only a distraction from purchasing at that point.
After a completed order, you know for a fact the customer is interested in what you have to offer. This means it is a great opportunity to provide even more value and allow them to subscribe to your newsletter. No more pesky pop-ups with newsletter signups – please.
