Disclaimer: WhatsApp marketing usually only makes sense from 7 or 8-digit annual sales - mainly for capacity reasons. With WhatsApp support, this can be the case much earlier.

"On the one hand, we regret being the only WhatsApp integration for JTL stores. This means there is no competition to accelerate innovation and market solutions. On the other hand, JTL brands have no choice but to work with us if they want to leverage WhatsApp marketing. So we see the market development with one laughing and one crying eye. We would like to see a stronger JTL-WhatsApp ecosystem and are doing difficult pioneering work here." - Johannes Mansbart, Chatarmin founder

Recovering abandoned shopping carts via JTL-WhatsApp integration

One of the most profitable email marketing automations is "Abandoned Checkout Retargeting". This is the "recovery of lost shopping baskets". Several euros can often be reactivated per automated email or WhatsApp message. These are the reasons why users cancel their purchase at the checkout:

• The payment fails
• The desired payment method cannot be used
• Problems with the internet connection
• Technical problems in the store
• Purchase distraction by the TV, etc.
• Curious customer who "just wants to look"
• Many other reasons

So there are plenty of reasons why customers can be persuaded to buy after a re-activation message. These automations are often peppered with several messages over many hours - or even days.

However, since abandoned checkout email automation often only has open rates of 50-90%, this is not the most efficient vehicle for customer recovery. Chatarmin recommends a WhatsApp campaign between the first and second retargeting email. This can look something like this:

And brings really profitable results of sometimes several euros recovered per message sent (RPR):

TIP: We continue to recommend email as the "#1 retention channel" because:

• Email marketing still works great
• Email is free (except for tool costs)
• The use of scalable and GDPR-compliant WhatsApp high costs of the - WhatsApp Business Platform brings with it
• End customers are simply "used to" email as a marketing channel

With almost 100% open rates and 20-40% click rates through WhatsApp marketing, it is advisable to use WhatsApp as a retention marketing channel in addition to email. The average "CLTV uplift" of Chatarmin customers is between 25% and 75%.

Fact check: Many stores still do not ask for phone numbers at checkout. This is a major omission. Online shoppers (approx. 20-50%) like to enter their telephone number when making a purchase. This should be seen as an invitation to D2C brands to also reach their end customers via WhatsApp.

If your abandoned checkout automation via email or WhatsApp does not always bring the desired success: So you've collected cheap marketing leads that you can later persuade to buy via WhatsApp newsletter. These contacts are then already used to chatting with your company via WhatsApp, which minimizes the "entry barrier" to getting in touch with your customers via WhatsApp to virtually zero.
