Introduction:

A "Thank you Page Upsell" refers to a marketing strategy where a business offers additional products to a customer immediately after they've made a purchase. This approach leverages the positive sentiment of a "thank you" moment to entice the customer to consider enhancing their original purchase or exploring related offerings. It aims to increase the average order value and customer satisfaction by presenting relevant product options.

This user guide explains how to create a Post-purchase Campaign using Checkout Upsell for WooCommerce.

Example Scenarios:

  • Show related products on the thank you page

  • Showcase upsell products on the thank you page

Please note that before proceeding, you must have installed and activated the Checkout Upsell. It is important to note that this feature requires the PRO version.

Now, let's take a closer look at the scenarios in detail.

Example 1: Show related products on the thank you page

In this scenario, when a customer places an order, products related to that order will be shown in the "You may also like" section of the Thank You Page immediately after the order is placed by customers. This encourages customers to shop more and increases the chance of additional purchases.

To create this campaign, follow these steps

Creating a Campaign

  • Go to WordPress dashboard -> Checkout Upsell -> click on the button "Create new campaign"

  • Choose "Thank you Page Upsells"

Here is the screenshot of Campaign that follows,

Detail of configurations are:

Step 1: Give a title for the campaign. For example: Thank you page upsell

Step 2: Then choose the product suggestion method as "Use Related Products" since we are displaying related products based on the order placed in thank you page.

Options available in products suggestion methods are:

  • Use Related Products - With this option, we make use of WooCommerce's Related Products feature. It figures out which products are related to the one you just bought by looking at things like the same tags or categories. So, for example, if you buy a bag, after you finish your order, you'll see other bag-related products on the Thank You Page.

  • Use Cross-Sell Products - When you choose this option, we'll show you products that are set as "Cross-Sell" in the "Linked Products" section in the product creation page.

  • Use Upsell Products - When you choose this option, we'll show you products that are set as "Upsell" in the "Linked Products" section in the product creation page.

Step 3: Choose the display location of the upsell and change template designs if required

Step 4: You can also add Additional Conditions for the Campaign (if required).

Step 5: Click on “SAVE” once we have successfully created the Campaign.

Now, as soon as customers places their order, they'll see Related Products displayed on the Thank You Page.
