What Does the MailerLite Plugin Allow you to do in WordPress?
The MailerLite plugin allows you to;
Add Contact Forms to your Website
Gone are the days where people who could create beautifully designed, mobile-optimized contact forms are developers.
Integrating the MailerLite plugin with WordPress lets you create amazing contact forms right in your WordPress dashboard, cutting the need of jumping from WordPress to MailerLite and vice versa, just to get some specific services.
The plugin also allows you to;
Connect MailerLite to your WooCommerce Store
The eCommerce industry is a brutal one – just one slip up and you are out of business. Statistics from Forbes put the failure rate of eCommerce stores at a whopping 90% in the first 5 years.
Connecting the MailerLite plugin with your WooCommerce store can cut that probability by a ton. With this integration;
- You can start sending abandoned cart emails automatically to people who’ve abandoned their carts.
- You can start tracking your email ROI thanks to all the data and analysis you are given.
These small wins in the short term will mean a ton in the long run.
The integration will also allow you to;
Automatically Segment Subscribers
Whether your subscribers come from your comment section, or from a certain page, or from lead magnets on certain pages, these people will be put in pre-built segments.
This is necessary so that you can send targeted emails to them and increase the email open rates as well as the conversions.
