Problem Definition
Existing system:
As there are thousands of free as well as paid plugins that WordPress provides for its users. These plugins basically have different working capabilities to provide user facilities whether to secure their site or extra features they are looking for.
The disadvantage of the Existing system:
In the existing system, there is no such functionality that can inform customers about the sold count, or the sales. Many people are not aware of sales or they can’t remember dates, for this reason, we design product sales counter and counter countdown, which helps customers to buy more products at discounted prices. Previously, 50% of customers knew about the sales, in other words, people who are more social are aware of sales like Azadi sales, summer sales, etc.
So, as a result, the total sale of the company was decreasing. To get more profit, eCommerce websites need functionality from which they can grab customer attention toward their products, and they want to update their customers about the upcoming sales.
The biggest marketing strategy to sell more is to create a “Fear of Missing Out” (FOMO). Nowadays, everything is in a rush and customers scroll through web pages rather than reading the page’s content. This customer behavior makes e-commerce more challenging. So, your online store must have potential features to quickly convert your website visitors into customers.
Proposed System and its Benefits:
Well, the Sale countdown timer is one potential marketing strategy to boost your online revenue. The countdown timer creates sales urgency and your customers will be forced to make a quick buying decision.
So basically, an E-Commerce website is useful as it adds social proof and urgency. If a customer sees an item has only a few lefts in stock and several people have purchased it then they will snap it up before it’s gone.
If customers see something is popular and selling fast, they won’t want to miss out and they’ll buy it now rather than waiting or thinking about it. It actually boosts your conversions by showing customers the engagement of others with your products. This is done by tracking sales on the product level and displaying this in strategic places.
Every day, we are given a 24-hour countdown timer and nothing stops the clock. And it’s obvious that this countdown pushes every one of us to try hard in whatever we do before it ticks over. Isn’t it?
So, counter countdown Increase sales with countdown a timer. Sales Countdown Timer extension for WooCommerce creates a sense of urgency that compels users to place orders right away. It is helping many e-commerce websites in their sales. This functionality did not exist before, but it was the need of merchants.
