Introduction:

Post Purchase Upsell is a marketing strategy that allows you to offer additional products or services to customers after they have made a purchase on your WooCommerce store. This technique is a great way to increase your revenue and customer satisfaction. By offering related or complementary products, you can help customers get the most out of their initial purchase and encourage them to buy more.

For example, an online clothing store can offer a complementary accessory to a customer who just bought a dress.
