Post-Purchase Upsells with Shopify
There are a variety of ways of doing post purchase up-sells and cross-sells. CartHook will now have a Shopify app. One example of a post-purchase upsells is to up-sell a "Monthly Subscription". You're offering automatic delivery of a product they know they'll run out of (that's a time saver for them). By buying now, they lock in a lower price (that's a huge saving over time).

Here is the video interview for the Happy Progress Podcast. This video will only be available for a limited time (long story). So watch it now before it is taken down:

Some of the companies mentioned on this podcast: Shopify, Shopify Plus, Shogun Landing Page, Liquid Landing Pages, Builder.io Headless CMS.

CartHook will soon have a Shopify app allowing you to do post-purchase offers directly inside your Shopify checkout. CartHook's new Shopify app is expected to be available at the end of October 2020. CartHook was originally founded in 2015 as an abandoned cart app. In 2017, we launched post-purchase upsells.

What is Headlless Commerce?

In its simplest form, headless commerce is a separation of the front end and back end of an ecommerce application. This architecture offers brands freedom of expression to build whatever and however they want. Most importantly, it enables brands to enrich the customer experience.
