Ellie & Mac decided to implement a product finder quiz on their Shopify store. The quiz asked shoppers about their favorite fabrics, styles, and sewing abilities. After completing the quiz, customers were given personalized sewing pattern recommendations based on their responses. To continue the conversation with potential and existing customers, an email opt-in was included in the quiz. Additionally, the company introduced an exit-intent quiz pop-up that was triggered when shoppers were about to leave the website. This pop-up embedded the main quiz experience and helped to retain customers. Furthermore, a conversational pop-up was created to capture emails, learn about key customer preferences, provide incentives for opt-ins, and recommend products based on the initial answers.
