A common way customers identify clothes they want to purchase is through pictures from paid social media adverts. This can however be a problem when they go to purchase the item and cannot find their size, leading a customer to click off the store and search for something similar elsewhere. This means a high bounce rate from your ads, as well as a loss of income for your business. In this article, we will cover how a first-time buyer behaves on your Shopify store and how Prime AI technology reduces bounce rate and increases profits for your apparel business, by instantly offering relevant visually similar clothing items to the one being viewed. Prime AI advanced image recognition technology identifies distinctive attributes of your merchandise and achieves 96% accuracy in finding similar products by utilizing state of the art neural networks.

Social media ads and human behavior

Pop-up images on sites like Instagram that feature your clothing items with links to the site are incredibly effective as they tap directly into human psychology. Humans are visual beings and when we see something we want, we go after it. When you combine this with social media, you have found an ideal way to market to new customers.

How does a high bounce rate from ads affect my business?

Having a higher bounce rate suggests people are not sticking around on your site or store. This, therefore, means you are not making as many sales as you could be. Customers leaving after clicking through once suggests deeper problems with your user experience. Luckily, artificial intelligence systems can be used to rectify this.
