Thanks for mentioning your ROI. What's great is that you're only sending SMS messages to abandoned checkouts. If you sent out other messages like abandoned browsers, winbacks, etc, you'll get even more sales. Lots of upside for you!

if I can give zero star i will. The app is helpful, but the customer service is really really bad, the one Named "Joe" never helped anyting, yes, you sent an email to him, the first time he replied, and then if you asked for some help, they never reply. you have to contacted them time and time, he should be fired right now!! this waster so much time. report you, if i find a better SMS app, i won't use this right away

Loving this app so far! It's life free money!

It's perfect for the abandoned checkouts as I used to do that manually.

Thanks for your review! I like how you're using the winback messages to follow-up with your customers. That's great customer service, and I see a few of them are converting into repeat buyers as well!

Did you know you can also send abandoned cart messages to anyone on mobile that abandons their browser? They don't even need to put anything in their cart! I just added 250 free credits to your account if you wanted to turn on this feature. Or you can just use the credits towards your current abandoned checkout messages too :)

I used the app to increase my sales and it worked very well. I find that my people are generally more responsive to messages than emails. So far I have pretty much doubled my sales. I send out a message to my customers whenever I have a new product that they might like or new promotions. The support has been wonderful with providing tips for me.

We love hearing comments like "doubled my sales"! SMS marketing is very effective, as you're finding out.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our app. Merchants like you are the reason we built this app!

I installed this app in the summer of 2021 and it was fantastic for a few months as was customer service with "Joe". By January of 2022 (I was and still am on the $179/mo plan and have purchased thousands of extra credits), the delivery rate plummeted and customer service became sparse. I have BEGGED (via the app and email) to have management call me to discuss the issues with the app not delivering despite the count saying 100% (I signed up as have numerous customers just to test it and RARELY receive the texts). The app "takes credit" for sales after texts go out even when those customers verify they did NOT receive the text and thus, their purchase was not at all thanks to Winback. My emails and messages requesting management contact me to fix errors (and surely offer a massive credit) are to date, almost a year later, unreturned. I am very frustrated with the lack of care for a customer who has spent a decent amount of month and who has begged for help. I do not, in any way, recommend any level of this plan given the entire 2022 performance. I am uninstalling it now as I cannot see groveling for help for another year with most of the 3k customers signed up verifying they RARELY get the texts I send out.

Thanks for the update. Yes our free trial is not unlimited.

This particular store spent $29 on the app and made 62 sales from it. The ROI was 56X and I'm glad these results are appreciated!

I Love this app! 15+sales in the early stages and I'm just getting started. I had a lot of questions and Joe helped answer all quickly and provided guidance on how to increase sells. He went above and beyond by scheduling a zoom call as an intro and helped me until I succeeded. If you want to feel like the people behind the app are cheering for your success, get this app! Thanks again for all your help Joe.

Thank you for your kind review. I just looked at your stats and messages, and sent you the following suggestions to optimize your account:

1) You don't need to have product images in both of your abandoned cart messages. The reason for this is that your shopper gets texted from the same number each time. And so they'll see the abandoned product image on the 1st message, and then the subsequent messages can just be text since they'll be in the same thread as the 1st message on their phone.

Turning off the product image for your 2nd message will save you some money :)

2) To save additional money, see if you can keep your 2nd message below 160 chars. For example, if you replaced "Please use code "15OFF" for 15% Off today if you're still interested." with more concise text like "15% off at this link", you'll be under 160 chars

3) I recommend turning on a 2nd winback message. The subsequent winback messages (ex 30 days later) can be used for selling since you're already using the 1st message 1 day after delivery for a followup.
