Awarded to organizations who have a complete grasp of experience optimization and push the limits of personalization to create real value for their customers and their businesses.
A household name in India, the Shoppers Stop eCommerce site is home to almost any fashion or home need. With such a high volume of website traffic and so many shoppers with different wants and preferences, it was critical for the company to identify new ways to engage visitors and increase product discovery with targeted, relevant experiences. Two innovative strategies deployed by Shoppers Stop this year — gamification and real-time product recommendation filtering — helped to nearly quadruple the average time on site per visitor and almost doubled the average revenue generated per user.

How Shoppers Stop does it

shoppers-use-case
Shoppers Stop built a real-time evaluator to show items of a higher caliber and price within recommendations on category and product detail pages (bottom image), effectively encouraging upsells and RPU by 45% vs. the default experience, which showed similar products from the same brand (top image).

Dynamically recommends watches of a higher caliber and price point on category and product detail pages through the use of real-time filters that read the details of the watch currently in the visitor’s cart. The strategy was proven to consistently influence upsells, leading to a 45% increase in revenue per user compared to the default experience that displayed “Viewed Together” items.

Makes it interactive, deploying a gamification strategy that would also increase product discovery by launching a quiz/survey experience for explicitly understanding which categories most interested shoppers. This provided the team with more information to personalize recommendations, and those who completed the game were awarded a discount, resulting in a 40% decrease in bounce rate, an 88% uptick in average page views, and 402% more time browsing the site on average.
