Don’t Let Cart Abandoners Go

Letting people leave when they have a full cart of your items is a huge mistake. You should have a follow up to ensure they come back and buy the items. They may change their mind at the last minute, but if you remind them and give them a gentle nudge, they are more likely to complete the purchase.
