Fresh Relevance enables you to dynamically filter the products shown in your email recommendations, presenting the most suitable options for each unique customer. Our Best Tag Value filter allows you to target specific categories, such as fashion styles, travel preferences, or content types, depending on your business. Your Product Tags will be exclusive to your brand, and you can find a list in this helpful report. - Leverage Social Proof
Social proof is crucial for building customer trust in your products and brand.Since 93% of online shoppers consult reviews before making a purchase, why not include ratings and reviews in your email recommendations? You can also filter products by rating score to showcase only top-rated items.Enhance your social proof further with dynamic messaging, such as highlighting product popularity and creating a sense of urgency with scarcity messaging (e.g., low in stock), especially when there has been an intent to buy. - Target specific price points
In addition to personalizing preferences, you can filter email recommendations to display products within relevant price ranges. Showcase items that fall within a certain percentage of a customer’s typical browsing or purchasing behavior, or feature higher-priced items to boost your average order value (AOV). Our Price Affinity Predictor filter works even for first-time visitors, helping to increase conversions and reduce bounce rates.
