Adding products to your Shopify store
Adding new products is always a good idea when it comes to growing your Shopify store. It gives customers more options to choose from, and it can also help boost your margins. Of course, not all products are created equal. To maximize your profits, it's essential to carefully select products that fit well with your existing range and that offer a good margin. To get started, look at your best-selling products and see if there are any gaps you could fill. Alternatively, you could look for products similar to your best-sellers but offering a higher margin. Whichever route you decide to take, adding new products is a great way to keep your store fresh and relevant - and to boost your bottom line.
When adding a product to your Shopify store, be sure to include the following information:
-Product name
When creating product names in Shopify, choosing names that attract buyers is essential. After all, you want your products to stand out from the competition and grab attention. Here are a few tips for creating product names that will help you sell:

By considering these factors, you can set prices for your products that will help you sell more items online.
-Category
When categorizing your products on Shopify, it's essential to use the correct categories. This helps potential buyers find your products more quickly, and it also helps to create a well-organized store. Here are a few tips for using Shopify product categories:
-Use the most relevant category for your product. Don't force a product into a category that doesn't fit.
-Create subcategories if needed. Create a more relevant subcategory if a product doesn't fit into a specific category.
-Make use of tags. Tags can be used to categorize your products further, and you can also use them to target specific buyers.
Using these tips, you can create a well-organized Shopify store that is easy for buyers to navigate.
Creating a custom abandoned cart email in HubSpot
One of the most frustrating things for an online shopper is to add items to their cart only to abandon it before completing the purchase. According to Baymard Institute, the average online shopping cart abandonment rate is 69.57%. That's a lot of potential sales that are being left on the table! One way to combat cart abandonment is by creating a custom abandoned cart email in HubSpot.
When creating your abandoned cart email, personalization is critical. You'll want to address the recipient by name and include items they left in their cart. You can also get creative with your subject line to entice them to open the email. For example, "We noticed you left these items in your cart" or "Did you forget something?"
In addition to personalization, you'll also want to ensure that your email is customizable. HubSpot offers a variety of built-in templates that you can use as a starting point, but you'll want to make sure to add your branding elements to make it feel like your own.
Finally, you'll want to set up automation so that your emails are sent automatically after a set time. This will ensure that your potential customers receive the email promptly and that you don't have to worry about manually sending it out each time.
Following these tips, you can create a custom abandoned cart email that will help increase sales and boost customer satisfaction!
