Matcha Announces Content-Powered Popups to Help Ecommerce Websites Capture More Leads

ATLANTA, May 29, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Matcha, the performance blogging platform for small, direct-to-consumer businesses, today announced content-powered popups to help ecommerce websites convert more blog visitors into leads. The lead conversion feature adds to Matcha's capabilities that allow online businesses to effortlessly publish compelling blog content, distribute articles to the right people, and optimize results with an analytics dashboard.

Early users have seen an average 10 to 20x increase in lead conversion rates while cutting cost per lead by 50 to 75%. One beta customer, Everly, an ecommerce business that sells a natural, sugar-free drink mix, has seen their conversion rate increase nearly 20-fold, growing from less than 1% to 19%. Paid Facebook promotion has resulted in a cost per lead as low as $2.43 and they've slashed the cost of building their email list by 71%.

"Matcha has made it incredibly easy for us to create a high-performing blog. It's helped me better understand my target customer, increase traffic to my site, and build awareness with my audience," says Ryan Gaines, CEO of Everly. "Now, content-powered popups are helping to turn cost-efficient traffic into more leads and build a very engaged email list."

There is a growing consensus that blogging is critical for ecommerce websites to drive growth. In fact, Shopify, the leading ecommerce platform, calls content the "holy grail of growth" in the 2019 article, What Is the Future of Ecommerce? 10 Insights on the Evolution of an Industry.
