What is Average Order Value?
Average order value (AOV) is a metric that measures the average amount of money spent per order on a website or in an eCommerce store. You can calculate it by dividing the total revenue by the number of orders.
For example, if a store had 100 orders and a total revenue of $10,000, the AOV would be $100 ($10,000 / 100 orders).
AOV is an important metric for your business because it can help you understand the value of your customer base and identify opportunities to increase sales. By increasing the AOV, your business can generate more revenue from each customer, which can help them grow your overall sales and profitability.
There are several strategies you can use to increase their AOV, such as offering bundle discounts, upselling related products, and using bundle pricing. By effectively implementing these strategies, you can drive more sales and increase their AOV over time. We’ll talk about it in more detail soon.
Is Average Order Value the Best eCommerce Metric?
While increasing average order value (AOV) can be a useful way to grow a business, there are a few potential drawbacks to consider. Increasing your AOV may:
- Lead to higher customer acquisition costs: To increase AOV, you may need to invest more in marketing and customer acquisition efforts. This can increase the cost of acquiring new customers, which may impact the overall profitability of the business.
- Not be sustainable in the long term: Increasing AOV may not be a sustainable strategy in the long term, as customers may eventually reach a point where they are unwilling to spend more on each order. So, it’s best to focus on AOV when you’re running a seasonal sale.
- Lead to customer dissatisfaction: If you focus too heavily on increasing AOV, you might annoy your customers by pushing them to buy more products than they need or want. This can lead to customer dissatisfaction and potentially harm your business’s reputation.
- Not be feasible for all businesses: Depending on the nature of your business and its products, it may not be feasible to increase AOV. For example, if you sell low-priced products, you may have a harder time increasing AOV than businesses that sell higher-priced products.
Overall, it’s important to carefully consider the potential drawbacks of increasing AOV and take a balanced approach. Short term growth may force you to lose loyal customers that would have had a lasting impact on your business.
Ways to Increase Your Store’s Average Order Value
Now that you understand what Average Order Value is and why you should care, it’s time to check out how to increase your AOV. Keep in mind that almost all our tips require some marketing tool or the other. Before you start optimizing your AOV, you need to be 100% sure that you need to focus on it at all.
#1. Create a Minimum Order Value for Free Shipping
Free shipping can get you a lot of sales. But if you’re looking to increase your average order value, you need to stop giving it away for your cheaper products. One way to do it is to have a Minimum Order Value for free shipping.

The Minimum order value (MOV) for free shipping is the minimum amount of money that a customer must spend in your store to get free shipping on their order. You can use this marketing strategy to encourage customers to spend more money on your website.
When you set a minimum order value, it reduces the amount of money you have to spend on each order for shipping and handling. The reduced cost makes it easier to maintain profitability.
Another reason to implement a Minimum Order Value for free shipping is to nudge your customers to buy more items in a single order. This can increase the Average Order Value pretty easily.
#2. Bundle Products and Create Packages
Bundling products is a common strategy for increasing the average order value (AOV) of a business. By bundling products together and selling them as a package, you can often sell more products at a higher price than if you were to sell them individually.
Here are a few tips for using product bundling to increase your AOV:
- Choose complementary products.
- Offer bundle discounts.
- Use bundle pricing.
If you stick to these three basic principles, you can create packages that sell like hot cakes. It’s a great way to increase your Average Order Value.
#3. Upsell and Cross-Sell Complimentary Products
Amazon'a göre satışlarının %35'i çapraz satıştan geliyor. Çapraz satış anlık bildirimleri, müşterilerinize otomatik olarak ürün çapraz satışı yapan kampanyalardır. Mevcut bir müşteriye satış yapma olasılığınız %60-70 daha fazla olduğu için çapraz satış anlık bildirimleri satışlarınızı artırmanıza yardımcı olur.
Upselling is a method of getting users to upgrade to a more expensive product or a better version of a product that they’re already buying. Cross-selling is selling related or complementary products to a customer.
Cross-selling and upselling are the most effective methods of marketing. You can easily increase your Average Order Value (AOV) using cross-selling and upselling campaigns. One easy way to do it is to create cross-selling push notifications like this one:

Check out this article for a step-by-step guide on how to create cross-selling push notifications. You can use the same technique to create upselling notifications as well.
#4. Increase Average Order Value Using Loyalty Programs
Reality check: It’s cheaper to retain an existing customer than it is to get and onboard a new client. If you’re focusing on getting new customers all the time, it may be a good idea to also spend a part of your budget and time to retain your existing customers.
So, what can you do? One really simple way to make your customers feel important and valued is to create a loyalty program. And no, loyalty programs aren’t meant just for airlines. Almost every big brand has a rewards program now. One easy way to do it is to use push notifications like this one:

And if you want to take it one step further, you can reward your loyal customers in different ways.

Sadakat programlarına yeniyseniz ve daha önce hiç kurmadıysanız, Yotpo'yu kullanmayı deneyin. Yotpo, web siteniz için anında sadakat programları oluşturmanıza yardımcı olur. Ve uygulamak için hiç kod bilmenize gerek yok.
#5. Add a Live Chat to Your Site
Having a live chatbox on your site can be really effective tool for website engagement. Using a live chat tool on your site, you can easily set up chatbox triggers for:
- Müşterilerin ürün veya ödeme sayfasında çok zaman harcaması
- Müşterilerin sepetlerine ürün eklemesi ancak ödeme yapamaması
- Müşterilere kupon veya indirim sunmak için yüksek sepet değerine sahip müşteriler
These are all automated triggers that can help you convert a lot of potential customers very quickly. We recommend using LiveChat.

LiveChat is a live chat tool for conversational marketing and sales. If you’re selling products online or collecting leads for an agency, we highly recommend using this plugin.
The chatbox will ping your customers when any of the automated triggers get fired. And from there, you can have a Customer Service rep take over and help the customers make a purchase decision.
#6. Use Audience Segmentation to Increase Conversions
Segmenting your audience by interests and behavior makes your campaigns more click worthy. If you send offers and promotions that are more relevant to your audience, your conversions will skyrocket.
For instance, if you segment your push notification subscribers, you will get far better clicks on them.
Abonelerinizi otomatik olarak segmentlere ayırmak, kişiselleştirilmiş anlık bildirim kampanyaları göndermenizi çok kolaylaştırır. Bu şekilde, anlık bildirimlere tıklamaları iyileştirebilir ve sitenize daha fazla geri dönen trafik sağlayabilirsiniz.
And this is super easy to set up with PushEngage. Normally, you’d have to use a Javascript API to create segments. With PushEngage, you still have that option, but the easiest way to do it is from your PushEngage dashboard. Head over to Audience » Segments and click on Create a New Segment:

Ve abonelerinizi gezdikleri URL'lere göre otomatik olarak segmentlere ayıran bir kural oluşturun:

Örnekte, "örnekler" kelimesini içeren sitenizdeki URL'leri ziyaret ettiklerinde aboneleri otomatik olarak segmentlere ayıran "Örnek Segment" adlı bir segment oluşturduk. Burada istediğiniz herhangi bir anahtar kelimeyi kullanabilirsiniz.
Kuraldan memnun kaldığınızda, Create'e tıklayın.
#7. Downsell Addons
Downselling is a sales technique where you try to persuade a customer to purchase a less expensive product or service, instead of the one they initially wanted. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as if the customer doesn’t have the budget for the more expensive option, or if the less expensive option meets their needs just as well.
Think of a store that stocks candy and cigarettes at the checkout. Downselling works best on impulse purchases and addons. There are a few strategies you can use when downselling addons:
- Explain the value of the less expensive option: Explain how the lower-priced addon still meets the customer’s needs and provides value.
- Highlight the drawbacks of the more expensive option: Point out any downsides or unnecessary features of the more expensive addon that the customer may not need.
- Offer alternatives: Suggest other options or addons that may be more suitable for the customer’s needs and budget.
- Use scarcity or urgency: Create a sense of urgency by mentioning limited availability or a limited-time offer on the less expensive option.
It’s important to be honest and transparent with the customer, and to never pressure them into making a decision. Instead, focus on helping them make an informed choice that best meets their needs and budget.
#8. Use an Exit-Intent Popup for Higher Sales
Exit intent popups are a type of marketing tool that is designed to capture the attention of website visitors who are about to leave the site. These popups typically appear when a visitor moves their cursor outside of the browser window or scrolls to the bottom of the page, indicating that they are about to leave.

Exit intent popups are a type of marketing tool that is designed to capture the attention of website visitors who are about to leave the site. These popups typically appear when a visitor moves their cursor outside of the browser window or scrolls to the bottom of the page, indicating that they are about to leave.
Exit intent popups can be used to try to persuade visitors to stay on the site and make a purchase or take some other desired action. It’s important to use exit intent popups sparingly and in a way that is respectful of the visitor’s experience. Overusing popups or using them in a way that is intrusive or annoying can lead to a negative user experience and may ultimately harm your sales efforts.
#9. Add a Click to Subscribe Button to Your Popup

Burada anlık bildirim abonelerini toplamak için kodu ekleyeceğiz. Öncelikle, tıklanabilir bir düğme oluşturmak için aşağıdaki kodu yapıştırın:
<button onclick="subscribeOnClickButton()" style="border: none; width: 100%; padding-left: 15%; padding-right:15%; text-align: center; display: inline-block; color: white;">Get Updates via Push Notifications</button>
Kodu, HTML ekleyebileceğinizi söylediği yere yapıştırın:

PushEngage kontrol panelinizde, Site Ayarları » Site Detayları bölümüne gidin ve Kurulum Talimatları İçin Buraya Tıklayın düğmesine tıklayın. Herhangi Bir Site altında, kurulum kodunuzu alacaksınız:

UYARI: Kontrol panelinizden aldığınız kodu kopyalamanız gerekir. Kod, her PushEngage kullanıcısı için benzersizdir. Görüntüdeki kodu kopyalayarak anlık bildirim aboneleri toplayamazsınız.
Kodunuzu PushEngage kontrol panelinizde aldıktan sonra, ikinci betiği alın ve ona ek kod ekleyin. Nihai kodunuz şuna benzer olmalıdır:
<script src="https://clientcdn.pushengage.com/core/02a6e92667ae2279fcba8932356c1d93.js" async></script>
<script> window._peq = window._peq || [];
function subscribeOnClickButton(){
window._peq.push(['subscribe',{}.pe,function(res){
console.log(res);
}]);
}
</script>
Bu kodu, düğmeniz için olan kodun hemen ardından ve <div></div> kod bloğunun arasına OptinMonster'daki HTML bloğuna ekleyin ve işiniz bitti!
#10. Create a Welcome Campaign
A website welcome message is a perfect way to re-engage with your audience without being intrusive. Your subscribers will WANT a way to confirm that they’re really subscribed to your emails and push notifications. Creating an automated sequence of welcome push notifications is the perfect way to onboard website visitors.

Örneklerimizi gözden geçirirken bu basit kampanyayla ne kadar çok şey yapabileceğinizi tam olarak keşfedeceğiz.
But for now, just know that if you haven’t created your website welcome yet, you really need to start right now. It’s not like you can only use emails and push notifications either. If you’re using popups on your website, you should check out welcome mats.

If you’re trying to create epic popups with welcome messages you should get started with OptinMonster. OptinMonster is the world’s best conversion optimization toolkit and it’s super easy to create popups to convert more website visitors into email subscribers.

You get a ton of advanced options such as using the visitor’s username, location, dates, and more to personalize your welcome popups. And the best part is that you can target new and returning visitors with different campaigns to convert them in a more organic way.
#11. Create Time-Sensitive Offers
If you have a sales promotion coming up, you simply must add a countdown timer to your site. We’ve tested animated timers to grow our own sales and the results and incredible.
Using a countdown timer can be an effective way to increase sales by creating a sense of urgency and encouraging customers to make a purchase before the timer runs out.

The duration of your countdown timer should be appropriate for the nature of your offer. If you’re offering a limited-time discount, a timer that counts down from a few hours or a day might be appropriate. For a more significant offer, you might want to use a timer that counts down from a week or more.
#12. Offer Social Proof Through the Checkout Flow
Social proof is the practice of telling your website visitors that other people trust your business and buy from you. There are several forms of social proof that you can include on your website such as:
And more. We recommend using TrustPulse to create popups like this one for social proof:

TrustPulse'ın ne olduğunu yeni keşfedenler için, işte özet...
TrustPulse, herhangi bir siteye ekleyebileceğiniz bir sosyal kanıt yazılımıdır. Site dönüşümlerini anında artırmaya yardımcı olan sosyal kanıt açılır pencereleri oluşturur.

#13. Add Multiple Payment Options
Stripe allows credit card payments on your WordPress site. The best part is that the payment gateway allows multiple payment formats including recurring payments.
To be clear: Your customers don’t need a Stripe account to pay using credit cards. They can simply buy from your site as they would with any credit card processor.
It’s also used by some of the biggest names in the world including Target, Lyft, and UNICEF. So, you know that you can trust your payments to always get processed.
But the #1 reason why we like Stripe so much is their transparency. There are no hidden fees. If you’ve used PayPal to accept payments before, you know how much of a problem hidden fees can be with other payment processors and gateways. We recommend using WP Simple Pay to process your payments.
WP Simple Pay tam olarak adından da anlaşılacağı gibi. WordPress sitenizde çevrimiçi ödemeleri basitleştirir. Kullanımı kolaydır, oldukça güvenilirdir ve kurulumu için sıfır kodlama gerektirir.
