5. Collect Reviews and Feedback Positive reviews are worth their weight in gold for a growing eCommerce business. According to one study, reviews can increase conversions by 270%, and 97% of consumers say reviews influence their decisions. Ask for a business review right after the checkout process and include a pop-up with a clickable star-rating option to make leaving a review painless. When you start own eCommerce business, make sure to include product reviews on the website. For product reviews, email customers after they’ve had enough time to try their purchases. Encourage participation with a discount offer, but make sure the customer understands you are asking for an authentic review, not trying to buy one. Also, check if users leave reviews on third-party sites, such as Trustpilot, and highlight those on your site.
