Becausetest review for Gather: Refer a Friend

Feb. 28, 2018

We’re on the $39 Growing plan with Gather and have been customers since Gather’s launch on Shopify in 2015. We first joined Gather because there was nothing else in the Shopify app store that ticked the boxes for all our feature requirements and was also reasonably priced. Even though there are many apps with free tiers on the store, given our traffic volume, and in order to get the features we wanted, we had to pay over $100 every month. With Gather, it is $39. We have generated over $420,000 in orders from customers who signed up through Gather’s opt-in forms. Gather comes with many features, but these are the ones we found the most beneficial: - Exit Intent popup - The Targeting Rules. We only wanted to show one of our popups to customers who were referred from Google Adwords. We couldn’t have done so without targeting rules. - The option to display an email popup on certain pages only. We were able to create product specific promotions with this feature. - Refer a friend program that helped us increase our email newsletter subscriptions. Having the ability to contact subscribers via email marketing has been our single best channel in terms of conversions. With Gather, we have been able to maximise email acquisition. So for that, Gather’s value to our business is worth its weight in Gold! Yes it has taken us over 2 years to write Gather and its founder Iz a review, but now that we are, it had to be the most comprehensive review we’ve ever written on the app store. Though we hardly write reviews, This one is a review we had to write! Gather’s customer support has been nothing short of amazing. The number of hours Iz and his team spent with us helping us put together multiple campaigns as well as helping us with strategy, is simply unmatched. These are some of the many things Iz and his team have helped us with: Behavioural Marketing strategy, the Business Model Canvas for our store and Email Marketing tips. For Iz’s expertise in these areas alone, Gather’s subscription feels like the best value for money ever. Gather continues to help us grow Beautiful Because, I can’t recommend it highly enough.
