Getresponse Exit Intent Popup-How To Use it To Increase Your Bottom Line
Last Updated on September 20, 2022
I recently decided to add exit intent popup to my web pages in order to better monetize my traffic. Exit intent popups can increase your conversion rates by 10%-20%. True most people just find them annoying and simply close them but if you craft them the right way and target them properly they can really boost your revenue. Think about a potential buyer about to leave an online store shopping cart and than gets a 20% coupon within a popup. Or someone reading an article about exit intent popups and gets a popup about a software that is delivering that service (;
When searching an exit intent popup service I bumped into one of the most popular ones – optin monster. Which does have some great features, but really expensive in my opinion plus it limits the popup views and most of the great features require the more advanced, higher priced plans.
I decided to give up for now and went on with my day . But than when I logged into my Getresponse account which I use for my email marketing needs I noticed a new feature- Forms and popups.
So I went and build my first popup and luckily it met all my needs and since I already have a getresponse account it didn’t cost me any extra money!
