You may already be driving a high volume of traffic to your ecommerce website. Unfortunately, many ecommerce business owners find that most of this traffic doesn't convert. Most websites, in fact, lose 97 percent of their traffic, meaning only 3 percent is converting to sales. If your own traffic numbers are low, you aren't generating a lot of revenue, which can be disheartening.

Of course it is possible to achieve a higher conversion rate byidentifying the problem areas on your website and in your funnel; but this taks can be a challenge. Some entrepreneurs end up spending more time trying to fix and improve the product when in reality there is nothing wrong with that end of the business.

They assume no one is buying because the offer isn't compelling enough. More likely, however, the issue lies with your listing, your email follow-up strategy or your landing pages.

These problems, though, may seem mountain-sized, unless you're technically inclined. Fortunately, with the help of the latest apps, increasing your conversion rate just might be literally minutes away. Here are several tools that can help you improve that rate.

A tool like this is valuable because it streamlines and automates strategies you already know you should be implementing. You may have read about the effectiveness of psychological sales triggers.

Or, do you tend to get caught up in new projects and opportunities and the day-to-day of your business?

With GrooveJar, you can immediately start generating more leads, leading to more sales, given the right email strategy. People don't always purchase the moment they land on a website. But they may sign up to receive emails from you. This gives you the opportunity to build a relationship with them and convert leads through nurturing.

With MageMail, you can automate this process and ensure that the right messages reach the right people at the right time.

You can increase revenue and decrease expenses by focusing on the people who have either purchased from you in the past, or have already expressed interest in your offerings by coming to your website and signing up to receive your emails. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than that.

Wheelio

Wheeliois an alternative to GrooveJar. You may have heard about the effectiveness of exit-intent popups. But what if you could engage your visitors in a fun and compelling way while asking for their email address? What if you could gamify the signup process?

You can set up exit-intent, time-trigger and tab-trigger popups that grab the attention of your visitors and invite them to sign up to receive communication from you.
