Singapore, Singapore Apr 26, 2019 (Issuewire.com) - Referral program platform ReferralCandy announced today a new integration with MailChimp to help ecommerce merchants link to email marketing and referral marketing efforts easily. Merchants can use the new feature to generate bigger revenue impact from email marketing. ReferralCandy is planning more integrations across the marketing stack in 2019, to help merchants juggle different marketing apps.
Merchants regard email as a top priority, referral marketing has natural synergies
“In user research interviews, merchants consistently ranked email marketing in their top three priorities,” said Zach Cheng, Co-Founder of ReferralCandy. “Merchants put extra effort into email marketing, as every email sent is revenue. We developed this feature to help merchants get more out of every email.”
ReferralCandy for Mailchimp allows merchants to easily personalise emails with each customer’s unique referral link, be it marketing newsletters, sales offers or abandoned cart reminders. “We offered early access to some merchants last week, and we have already seen over a thousand new store visits through the feature.”
“Email is the biggest touchpoint for customer referral programs, at 49% of all interactions,” said Cheng, based on internal data. “47% of all referral sharing actions come from the email channel.”
MailChimp: a critical marketing app for small & medium businesses
“The merchants we interviewed all regarded Mailchimp as critical to their marketing efforts. We’re proud to be collaborating with Mailchimp to serve small businesses with the best in marketing technology.”
An upcoming feature will make use of Mailchimp’s contact tagging feature to help merchants identify the Super-Referrers in their customer base, and reach out to strike up conversations and collaborations.
ReferralCandy will launch integrations with marketing stack to cater to merchant priorities
In 2019, ReferralCandy expects to announce more integrations with other marketing apps. “Merchants have to juggle many apps and priorities. We want ReferralCandy to deliver value beyond referral programs, and will be looking to build more integrations to serve merchant priorities, like paid marketing and piecing data to get a view of the customer.”
