HYLETE and Justuno
25 days agoWe initially went to Justuno's on-site conversion platform looking for a way to quickly implement onsite experiences such as email capture and personalized product recommendations that weren’t resource-intensive and could be changed on a dime.
We implemented a multi-prong approach to omnichannel marketing with targeted email opt-ins, exit offers, and intelligent product recommendations. This not only doubled our monthly email and SMS list growth but engagement with Justuno communications led to an almost 12% lift in our overall conversion rate and an 8% increase in our average order value.
