MINNEAPOLIS, MN (PRWEB) August 18, 2015
TrackIf is an embeddable technology in leading e-commerce sites and mobile apps that, for the first time, gives shoppers options when they cannot or will not buy on their first visit to a site. With TrackIf’s white label technology, e-commerce companies can capture future consumer purchase intent and convert it into newfound revenue by sending personalized email alerts on changes such as price drops, new items and items coming back in stock.
TrackIf’s initial retail customers have seen tremendous results, with some capturing as much as $1 million in future purchase intent per day from their online visitors. TrackIf has sent over 65 million personalized emails to date, with nearly 50x better open rates and 20x greater conversion rates-- results rarely seen with even the best retargeting campaigns.
TrackIf’s customers include several of the top 25 Internet retailers (including the largest home improvement retailer), Neiman Marcus (Last Call), Build.com, Cost Plus World Market, Joie, and many others.
Trackif integrates easily into e-commerce sites by installing a simple script which gives shoppers the ability to opt-in to get alerts on specific products, categories, or areas of any site. This means even the largest sites can deploy this capability quickly with very little integration and provide Pinterest-like capabilities that are branded to any site.
Among the tracking and alerting capabilities that TrackIf retail customers have deployed are:
- Price Drops (on customer-specified products)
- Product Availability (in/out of stock + limited quantities)
- New Products Added (by category, brand, size, color, other)
- New Reviews Added
- Gift Registry Tracking (wedding, baby, graduate)
- Favorite Products (Pinterest-like wish list with alerting)
- Wish List Alerting (On existing wish lists within any site)
“We’re in a Pinterest economy now, where consumers want to pick and choose the products they want, from the sites they want, at the prices they want. Shopping sites that embed this type of experience into their sites will not only delight their customers, but can multiply their results,” said Doug Berg, CEO and Founder of TrackIf.
When successfully deployed, the TrackIf solution enhances retailers’ CRM systems, which traditionally are limited to only tracking what consumers have purchased in the past. TrackIf adds the capability to compile and act on data that signals what large groups of shoppers are going to buy in the future. Many TrackIf customers have altered their fulfillment and reordering processes as a result of the new demand intelligence they get from TrackIf’s products.
“TrackIf has impressive growth in this new category of customer-centric marketing. Many of the world’s most respected online retailers are getting instant results with measurable ROI,” said Jason Heltzer, Partner at Origin Ventures. “We believe this new category of marketing will be a must-have capability for any transactional site or mobile app that wants to personalize the consumer experience and maximize revenue-per-customer.”
As a part of the financing, Jason Heltzer from Origin Ventures and Lawson DeVries from Grotech Ventures will join the Board of Directors at TrackIf.
