Chicago--November 12, 2020-- ActiveCampaign, the leader in Customer Experience Automation (CXA), extends its E-commerce functionality to help emerging online sellers create and deliver 1-1 personalized, omnichannel experiences through all stages of the customer lifecycle.Increasingly, the ability to provide an excellent customer experience, including personalized recommendations and timely support through all channels, is what drives E-commerce growth and buyer loyalty. But delivering a customer experience that rivals the big box retailers and leading E-commerce companies is a challenge for emerging and resource-constrained sellers. ActiveCampaign solves this problem for small businesses with an E-commerce solution that helps sellers deliver 1-1 personalized customer experiences across channels.Just in time for the Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday surge, ActiveCampaign has expanded its CXA solution with E-commerce functionality that helps sellers improve the speed and ease of automation. With these enhancements, sellers can automate hyper-relevant buying recommendations to customers across a wide variety of segments, and they can drive a cohesive and consistent service experience across multiple digital channels through a unified inbox.Highlights include:

• ActiveCampaign doubled its E-commerce automation recipes to 80, making it easier than ever for businesses to sell online. With these recipes, anyone, even those without technical expertise, can automate engaging campaigns that expand the entire customer experience; popular recipes include abandoned cart reminders, upsell recommendations, and requests for review.
• New Pages enables E-commerce companies to spin up beautiful, on-brand landing pages for products or promotions, such as a Black Friday or Small Business Saturday campaign. This functionality also enables organizations to automatically create and tag new contacts in ActiveCampaign when they submit a form on those landing pages, trigger automations based on visits to the page, and use a buy-now button to drive check outs from a landing page.
• New Web Personalization enables companies to leverage the unique attributes of each customer to create a hyper-relevant website experience, increasing online purchase frequency and volume.
• New Conversations integration with Facebook Messenger brings all Facebook Messenger messages to one unified inbox along with messages coming in across channels like email and SMS.

With just a couple clicks you’re synchronized. It’s always working in the background, collecting data from Shopify,” said Mike Morrow, founder of Morrow Audio. “It’s really freed me up, mentally, knowing that information is collected as orders are coming in.
