The team at S-mania put a lot of effort into utilizing CartFox’s abandoned cart SMS feature.

By targeting specific groups of customers with tailored messages and offers, S-mania was able to recover lost sales and increase their revenue.
The app also allows personalizing messages, so the marketers at S-mania were able to personalize messages by including the customer’s name, the items they left in their cart, and even a personalized message from a store representative. This helped the store establish a personal connection with their customers, which in turn helped increase sales and revenue.
