Exit Intent: How to Increase Your Conversions
Last week we hosted a Webinar together with speaker David Ayre who went through tips, tricks and Do’s & Don’t’s around the subject of ‘Exit Intent’. He was discussing reasons as to why customers might be choosing to leave your website, and potential ways around this. We have created a brief summary for your convenience below based on the presentation, including some key takeaways.
Reasons why customers leave
| Extra costs too high (shipping, taxt, fees) |  |
| Too long / complicated checkout process |  |
| I couldn’t see / calculate total order cost up-front |  |
| Website had errors / crashed |  |
| I didn’t trust the site with my credit card information |  |
| Delivers was too slow |  |
| Returns policy wasn’t satisfactory |  |
| There weren’t enough payment methods |  |
| The credit card was declined |  |
