Industry West lifts average order values by 15% with AI-powered ecommerce personalization from Nosto

Home decor and furnishings retailer achieves 8% revenue boost through website content customization for different visitors in real-time


NEW YORK, Nov. 19, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ecommerce-first home decor and furnishings retailer, Industry West, has seen a 15% increase in average order value (AOV) and an 8.1% increase in revenue since introducing AI-powered Onsite Content Personalization for both desktop and mobile visitors. 

Industry West is using Nosto’s ecommerce personalization platform to display personalized product recommendations and to automatically customize onsite content to match the needs of individual visitors and visitor segments in real-time. As a result, 25% of the retailer’s online sales now come through Nosto’s personalized content. 

Using Nosto, the retailer is able to customize all onsite content — including banners, hero images, special offers and product recommendations — to different audience segments. No matter where a shopper is in their journey, they are automatically shown personalized content in real-time, either to display what is most relevant to them or to help them pick up where they left off.  

For example, repeat visitors who haven’t made a purchase are presented with personalized “continue browsing” recommendations based on their past browsing history. As they are likely to be in the “consideration” stage of the buying process, the content they see becomes more product-specific to guide them towards an informed purchase.

Similarly, onsite content automatically changes to encourage future purchases from returning customers with hero and top banners presenting discounts and “quick ship” options for relevant product recommendations.

“Furniture is a high consideration purchase where people return to a site repeatedly to look at images, find inspiration and make the best possible decision, which makes personalization very important,” said Jim Lofgren, CEO of Nosto. “Because this is a sector with a typically high cost of customer acquisition, the opportunities to cross-sell and up-sell by displaying personalized recommendations and content are significant.” 

The ability to automatically change content to target different segments is part of Nosto’s Segmentation & Insights and Onsite Content Personalization offerings. Together, they allow ecommerce retailers to automatically personalize every element on a retail site: from the navigation bar, banners, videos and Call To Actions (CTAs), to logos for both desktop and mobile in real-time.  

Ian Leslie, CMO at Industry West adds, “Partnering with Nosto has been critical to our online success; we see positive results everywhere we implement their solution. Nosto has been an incredible time-saver and has expanded our customization far beyond basic product recommendations. The platform itself is very user-friendly and provides helpful, granular insights on how the campaigns are performing. In addition, they have dedicated Customer Success Managers to ensure you are getting the most out of the solution. This is only the tip of the iceberg and we are excited to be a part of what comes next!”
