An invaluable benefit of the Cart Abandonment (SCA) solution is the ability to see your customer's shopping intent, meaning, you know what they are considering for purchase before they ever act on it. Take, for example, a shopper that puts items in their shopping cart that have an extremely high total value. Customers that are making a large purchase, such as an engagement ring, or new supplies for their entire office building, are most likely price comparison shopping. You have the power to reach out to those customers and solidify the deal. Use Listrak Conductor to add a step in your conversation that notifies customer service when a shopper abandons a high-value cart. You can then contact the shopper or send a personalized message to incentivize them to complete the purchase.
Setting Up Notifications for High Value Carts
In this scenario, we'll set up a notification to our customer service team when customers abandon carts valued over $2,500 and send them a different, tailored, message to contacts with high value carts.
Confirm you are on the list associated with your cart abandonment campaign.
Navigate to Automation > Conductor Conversations.
Select your Cart Abandonment conversion.
Ensure you're using the working version of your conversation by selecting it from the drop-down menu.
Create a New Thread
Create a new thread by clicking the Add Thread (green plus) icon.
Add a Wait Step, a Message Step, and a Goto Step.
💡 The Goto step will be used to direct contacts back to your main abandonemnt thread after message 1. If you would like to send an entirely different series to high value abandoners add additional wait and message steps instead of a goto step.
Move the entire thread up to be positioned directly below your abandoned carts thread by clicking the Up Arrow icon.
Click the Trigger Step and give it a meaningful name. e.g. "Cart Value Over $2500."
Select the No Events Required checkbox.
💡 This means contacts can only enter the thread if sent to this location

You can grab these tags by navigating to Messages > Email New Broadcast Email > Personalization Control Panel and clicking the individual fields you'd like to copy from the personalization fields list. If desired, you can also use HTML markup in the message section of the notification.
