MrWatch.com Clocks High Social ROI and Triples its Fanbase in No Time Using ShopSocially Platform
Mountain View, California (PRWEB) September 03, 2013 -- MrWatch.com, a premier retailer of new, brand name watches and accessories, today disclosed several statistics showing how it is successfully leveraging social media to drive high sales growth. MrWatch has partnered with ShopSocially, the leading social commerce platform, to integrate a suite of social modules on its ecommerce website. These social modules are converting their visitors into qualified Facebook fans and are also driving a strong uplift in sales and user engagement.
MrWatch.com is using ShopSocially’s Get-a-Fan app to offer a 10% discount to website visitors who become a Facebook fan. The entire interaction happens on-site, without sending users away to Facebook. By making users ‘earn’ their discount coupon, MrWatch is seeing an increase in customer engagement and sales conversion. Additionally, they are gaining loyal Facebook fans with every coupon unlock. This simple but effective social commerce strategy has generated impressive results as indicated in the metrics below:
• 293% increase in Facebook fan-count in 3 months
• Extraordinary 32% sales conversion rate for Facebook fans
• $400,000 in incremental revenue
• Increase in qualified email subscribers with 13% of users unlocking a coupon also opting into email subscription
“We are delighted with the incredible success from ShopSocially integration,” commented Jennifer Kasper, Marketing Manager at MrWatch. “It was super easy to integrate and we couldn’t be happier with the results. We are now looking forward to adding additional apps on our site.”
Users visiting an e-commerce site already have a high purchase intent. Onsite social commerce is able to capitalize on this intent and convert it into a sale while also generating word-of-mouth endorsement in the process. On the other hand, off-site social commerce attempts, such as trying to sell on social networks, often fail because they are unable to target users with existing purchase intent.
“Adding social engagement modules on e-commerce sites can increase user engagement, sales conversion and create social referrals. They can instantly turn an e-commerce website into a word-of-mouth powerhouse and can deliver a very meaningful revenue uplift," said Jai Rawat, CEO of ShopSocially. “MrWatch’s social commerce success story is a great example of how you can use social engagement to drive revenues.”
