Why Cart Abandonment Emails Matter

Picture this: A potential customer is one click away from purchasing your course, membership, or coaching program—but then they get distracted. They leave the page… and never return. 

💰 That’s lost revenue—but Kajabi’s abandoned cart emails can bring them back. 

A well-crafted abandoned cart email sequence reminds customers about their incomplete purchases and gives them a reason to return. With Kajabi’s automation tools, you can recover lost sales effortlessly.

How to Set Up Abandoned Cart Emails in Kajabi

Step 1: Enable Cart Abandonment Emails

1. Go to Marketing > Automation in your Kajabi dashboard

2. Find the Cart Abandonment Email option.

3. Toggle the setting to enable cart abandonment emails.

🚀 Pro Tip: Customize your email to make it more effective—personalize the message, add urgency, and offer a small incentive (if needed).

 
Step 2: Craft the Perfect Cart Abandonment Email

Your first email is crucial. Keep it short, engaging, and focused on bringing the customer back.

Here’s a basic structure:

• Subject Line: Capture attention! Examples:
  • “Still thinking it over?"
  • “Your cart is waiting!”
  • “Complete your checkout before [X] ends!”
    
    
• Body Copy:
  • Greet the customer by name.
  • Remind them about the benefits of your product.
  • Include a clear CTA button that takes them straight back to checkout.
• 🔥 Optional Discount: If it makes sense for your business, offer a time-sensitive discount to create urgency.
  
  

Example Email: 

Hey [Name],

Are you looking to recover lost sales and skyrocket your revenue and conversions within Kajabi? 

HOW CAN KAJABI HELP?

Kajabi, a robust platform for online businesses, holds immense potential for entrepreneurs.  However, one of the challenges users face is the lack of built-in tools to track conversions and abandoned carts.  Despite Kajabi acknowledging the significance of these metrics in their own articles, the platform doesn't currently provide comprehensive tracking options.

But fear not! Kajabi is renowned for continuously adding new features and listening to user feedback. While the current analytics primarily focus on page views, there's a workaround to track conversions effectively.

To set the stage, it's essential to understand Kajabi's checkout process. Instead of traditional carts, users are directed to a checkout page. Only when they start entering their information but abandon the page will an abandonment cart email trigger. But here's the kicker: you need to set up these emails in advance.

Abandonment cart emails are automated messages sent to users who leave the checkout page without completing their purchase. These emails aim to gently remind them to finalize their order. While Kajabi currently supports only one automated abandonment email, there are strategies to maximize its effectiveness.

Ideally, a sequence of follow-up emails proves more fruitful than a single reminder. Although Kajabi doesn't offer this feature yet, their AI acknowledges its effectiveness. By nurturing potential customers over a few days with tailored emails, you increase the chances of conversion.

Now, let's get practical. Setting up abandonment cart emails in Kajabi is straightforward. Navigate to your offer's settings, enable the option for abandonment emails, and customize the timing. Typically, sending the email within an hour works best to keep your brand fresh in the customer's mind.

While the default email template is effective, customization adds a personal touch. Consider tweaking the subject line or offering a discount to entice customers back to complete their purchase.

However, there are limitations. Abandonment emails won't trigger for free products or if the user returns to complete the purchase promptly. Additionally, upsell pages bypass this feature, so be mindful of your funnel setup.

For those seeking alternatives or additional strategies, Facebook retargeting ads offer a powerful solution. By installing your Facebook Pixel into Kajabi and setting up retargeting ads, you can reach potential customers on social media, further incentivizing them to complete their purchase.

In conclusion, while Kajabi's current system has its limitations, savvy entrepreneurs can still leverage cart abandonment emails to boost sales.  By understanding the platform's nuances and implementing strategic follow-up sequences, you can recapture lost revenue and maximize conversions.
