Recommendations

General #

Clerk.io’s Recommendations can be installed on any page of the webshop, to help customers find the right products.

With the Setup Guide, you can see which pages to install recommendations on, and which types to use, to get our Best Practice running.

From the main menu start by clicking on Getting Started:

Create a Standard Design #

The first thing you need to do, is create a Standard Design for your sliders.

You can use the Setup Guide under Recommendations - Create a design for your recommendations sliders - to quickly create a Design that has the same color scheme and style as your webshop.

Click Publish when you are happy with the styling.

You can easily change this later, under Recommendations - Designs, then click the edit button.

Selecting Which Recommendations To Use #

Next, each step of the Setup Guide focuses on a specific page of the webshop.

They contain information about

  • Why recommendations are important on the page.

  • Which recommendations types to use.

  • Where on the page they should be placed.

Click for each type of recommendations you want to use and follow the steps.

Please bare in mind: by only clicking on each block of Recommendations they will turn green  as if they were installed - they are not - you still need to click and follow the steps.

Inserting Recommendations #

After choosing which recommendations to use for a page, you can add them to your webshop.

Inserting only with Embedcodes

Custom Platforms only allow an integration with embedcode:

For each type of recommendations, simply copy the embedcode and insert them to the file that generates the relevant page in your webshop.

Click on each type of Recommendations and follow the steps.

Here is an example of how to Add recommendations to your product page:

Click on DONE

Notice that some embedcodes might need variables, like product-ID’s or category-ID’s. Remember to insert your webshops logic for that data, in the embedcodes.

You can easily change your content later, under Recommendations - Content in the left menu.

Change Content

After enabling the features, you will be able to see Clerk.io’s Recommendations function on your webshop.

Exit Intent #

The Exit Intent popup reacts when a visitor tries to leave your webshop. It pops up and displays interesting products, possibly converting a leaving visitor to a buying customer.

Setup #

The setup is 4 steps:

  1. Create a new Content  for the exit intent in my.clerk.io as shown below

  2. Choose the right logic for it - We suggest “Visitor Recommendations”.

  3. From Insert into website, copy the provided embedcode to the bottom of your webshops code, so its inserted to all pages .

  4. Add: data-exit-intent=“true” to the embed code you just placed. Like so:

    <span class="clerk"
      data-template="@exit-intent"
      data-exit-intent="true">
    </span>
    

Now you should have the exit intent pop-up when anyone tries to leave the page.

All recommendations containing the  data-exit-intent=“true” will trigger the exit intent pop up.
