HIGH-CONVERTING POPUPS

EXIT INTENT POPUPS

Catch people before they leave your Shopify store

Set these popups to trigger right before someone is about to leave your Shopify store, otherwise known as exit intent. Even a modest 15% discount code can be enough to get someone to sign-up for your email list.

TOP BARS & BANNERS

Grow your email list while users browse your store

Don't want to interrupt the browsing experience with a popup? Add a top bar or banner to your Shopify store where visitors can add their email addresses, sign-up for your list, and earn a discount while they shop.

SMS LIST GROWTH

Capture phone numbers along with email addresses

Privy popups give you the flexibility to capture email addresses, phone numbers, or both! Grow your email and SMS lists at the same time and sell to customers on their preferred channels.

#1. WELCOME EMAILS

Make a good first impression

Get off on the right foot with new customers. Send Welcome Emails after someone signs up for your email list. Use this opportunity to tell your brand story, what type of content your customers should expect to receive, or even add a coupon code for their next purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you grow an email list fast?

Capturing email addresses can be difficult today, but there are some strategies for scaling your email list growth. These include:

Using interactive popups, like Spin-to-Win, as a fun way to entice visitors to enter their email addresses and receive a prize.
Exit intent popups that trigger right before someone leaves your website. This may be all someone in 'buying mode' needs to sign-up for your list and finish their purchase.
Quizzes. These are popular for skincare, haircare, and other products where a user can take an online assessment and get personalized product recommendations.
Coupon offers. Often times offering a coupon using a simple popup is all someone needs to sign-up for your list.

What types of marketing emails should I send?

Consumers receive all sorts of marketing emails nowadays, so you'll want to make sure yours stand out without bombarding your customers.

Welcome Emails. Start off on the right foot with your new subscribers, tell them your brand story, and offer them a welcome discount on their next purchase.
Newsletters. Keep customers in the loop on new item releases, sales, and exclusive discounts.
Cart Abandonment Emails. Recover more lost sales when customers leave items in their shopping carts.
Winback Emails. Nudge customers who haven't been active in a while to visit your Shopify store and place an order.
Purchase Follow-Up Emails. Ask for product reviews or general feedback after a customer buys from your brand.

Is buying an email list a good idea?

Nope. Purchasing email lists of consumers who have never heard or engaged with your brand before can hurt your reputation. Your emails may also be marked as spam. Finally, these consumers will be unresponsive to your brand. Expect open rates and engagement rates to be very low if you purchase an email list.

How many email subscribers should I have?

There is no right or wrong answer. Grow your email list, engage with your subscribers, offer them value, and be responsive. Filling your email list with high-quality subscribers is more important than filling it with subscribers who hardly engage with your brand.
