Moreover, customers are also prone to other technical issues such as payment failure or ordering something out of stock. To mitigate these challenges, every eCommerce platform requires an efficient order management system to amplify customer satisfaction and boost revenue. 

Why Efficient Order Management Is Important for eCommerce

Before you set up your online store, part of your business plan should center around how to retain customers and also constantly expand your customer base in the long term. Many factors boost customer satisfaction and increase revenue. Proper order management is crucial to those factors. 

Here are the key ways through which efficient order management features such as refund management and order repayments in your eCommerce store can help you achieve those goals:

Builds Customer Trust and Loyalty

Customer experience is the most important thing when it comes to increasing your brand value and trust. If customers receive timely refunds for product returns or canceled orders, they are more likely to become repeat buyers. This can help drive long-term revenue growth. Furthermore, leveraging these customer reviews can bring in new customers as well and increase the overall trustworthiness of your brand.

Reduces Cart Abandonment & Bounce Rate

Customers are more likely to complete their purchases if they perceive a lower risk of losing money. The checkout process plays a key role in determining the bounce rate of your store as well as customer retention. Therefore, having a clear and straightforward refund policy as well as notifying the customer in case of a failed payment can incentivize them to complete the purchase.

Improves Inventory & Revenue Management

A functioning order management system enables you to seamlessly monitor the revenue and cash flow of your store. Through order repayment, you can ensure that the customer has properly completed the transaction. Furthermore, effective refund and return management ensures that payments are returned to customers promptly. This also allows you to restock your inventory efficiently and prevent inventory wastage.

Fraud Prevention

A well-realized return and refund system can prevent any instance of return fraud faced by many online stores. Automated order repayment can help detect possible fraudulent transactions, as such transactions will get flagged automatically by the payment gateway or bank.

Increases Competitive Advantage

Customers are more likely to prefer stores with user-oriented refund policies. In contrast, stores that do not provide refunds or have inefficient refund management systems tend to be less favored.

How EasyStore Streamlines the Order Management Process

Now that you know why it’s important to have a good order management system, naturally, you might want to know what eCommerce platform can provide you with a good order management system. This is where EasyStore comes along.

EasyStore is a feature-packed Joomla eCommerce extension that can help you design your own seamless online shopping experience. Plus, it works as a two-way integration with the mighty SP Page Builder. To learn how to set up your eCommerce shop with EasyStore, click here.

EasyStore comes equipped with a robust order management system, which you can set up and customize easily. The extension comes equipped with a user-intuitive Orders Dashboard from where you can access a variety of features, including refund management and order repayment. 

A brief overview of these features and how you can set them up is given below:

Order Repayment

The Order Repayment feature in EasyStore can enable you to easily address the challenges of failed or incomplete payments. This feature accounts for all possible reasons for payment failure, such as technical issues, card declination, or insufficient funds. 

To access this feature, you need to log in to your site first. From the profile icon in the top right, you can access the Orders page. Here, you will find the list of active orders and their respective payment statuses.

Click on any order that has an unpaid status. You will be led to the Order Details page. From there, simply click on the “Pay Now” button.

From there, simply follow the payment procedure of the chosen payment gateway. After that, the status of the order should automatically change to “Paid” on both the frontend and the backend for both the store account and the customer.

You can also set up a notification popup for customers to see in case of failed transactions. Besides setting up the real-time notification of failed payments during the checkout process, you can also utilize EasyStore’s Email Notifications feature to inform customers via email about their payment errors and due payments.  

Refund Management

The Refund Management feature ensures a streamlined and efficient process for handling returns and refunds. Through this feature, you can monitor order statuses and add tracking information as well as shipping carriers. You can choose to issue partial or full refunds as well.  

To use this feature, you need to log in to the Joomla Dashboard and expand the EasyStore setting. From there, simply go to the Orders Dashboard, where you will see a list of orders made on your site along with the payment status for each of them. Click on any order with the “Paid” Status.

From there, you will be presented with the Order page. Now, click on "Issue Refund". 

Now, type the amount and reason for the refund. Then click on “Apply”.

Afterward, you will see the order updated on the Order page. If you go back to the dashboard, you will see that the payment status of the order has also been updated automatically to “Refunded”.

Similar to Order Repayment, you can also notify the customer of their refund status via email. You can keep track of the refund transactions with the Analytics feature. 

Key Takeaways

To summarize, here are the most important ways how an efficient order management system can boost the revenue of your eCommerce platform:

1. Proper refund management with a clear refund policy can help retain customers by ensuring their trust and also provide a competitive edge. 

2. Clear order repayment options can ensure that customers complete their transactions and also prevent bounce rates.

3. Inventory and revenue tracking becomes streamlined through the implementation of a proper order management system.

4. You can prevent fraudulent transactions through secure payment and order management options.

5. EasyStore provides the required order management features needed to build a robust and successful eCommerce site.

This guide will show you how to set up an online store for your business using Joomla in 12 easy steps.

Step 1: Selecting the Web Hosting and Setting up Domain

Before you start figuring out how to build your eCommerce platform, you must plan how to host your site and what domain name you will use. The domain name should reflect your brand. Most hosting providers include a domain, however, if your chosen hosting provider does not include the option to add custom domains you might have to buy a domain separately. 

Popular hosting solutions for Joomla include A2 Hosting, SiteGround, Bluehost, and Hostinger. 

Step 2: Choosing the Right CMS for Your eCommerce Site

Now that you have the hosting and domain set, you need to pick the Content Management System to build your site, given that you may not want to code and develop your site from the ground up. As the title implies, we will be using the Joomla CMS to develop our eCommerce site.

Installing Joomla

With your domain and hosting chosen, you're ready to install Joomla. Certain hosting platforms have a pre-built option to install Joomla easily in one click. If your selected web hosting platform does not have that option, you can manually install Joomla. To learn how to install Joomla, click here.

Step 3: Setting up the eCommerce Extension & Website Builder

It is important to determine what eCommerce extension and the Joomla page builder you want to use before building your site. You need to take into account the available template library as well as the functionalities of the page builder.

If you are looking for the most reliable and feature-rich Joomla website builder in the market, SP Page Builder is the right choice for you and it’s also what we will be using for this guide.

For creating our storefront, we recommend the EasyStore eCommerce extension which is also from JoomShaper and part of the same ecosystem, providing you with the most seamless online store-building experience.

Step 4: Installing Templates

JoomShaper has a vast collection of eCommerce templates that you can choose from to kickstart your eCommerce site. Simply select the template that suits your brand. 

You can either download just the template or a quickstart package of the template depending on your convenience.

Installing a Quickstart package is recommended if you want an instantaneous site-building experience. As it already comes bundled with Joomla and Helix Ultimate Framework (that contains SP Builder by default), you will be able to circumvent installing those separately. 

Exclusive template installation is recommended if you want to install the template to an existing website that already has some content and edit the components and modules yourself.

Once you have installed the template, you can open your Joomla dashboard and proceed to set up your store.

Step 5: Setting up Your Store in the Joomla Backend

Now, you are done with your preparations and can finally get into creating your actual store.

Open your Joomla dashboard, go to EasyStore, then click on Settings, and then General. From here you can customize the necessary settings of your store such as your location, countries where you will sell your products, your currency, store contacts, and so on. 

Learn more about setting up your store with just 5 simple steps.

Step 6: Adding Your Products

Once you have set up the basic settings of your store, you can try adding your products.

An ideal eCommerce platform requires you to have diverse options for your products, such as product weight, variations, price, available stock, etc. With EasyStore, you can set those options up instantaneously. 

To create a new product, go to your EasyStore dashboard and click on “Add New Product”. Alternatively, you can also head over to Products and click on “Create a new product”. 

From here, you can set the item’s name, weight, price, stock, category, image, etc. EasyStore has robust product creation features, giving you full freedom to add products based on your business.

To get a detailed guide on how to add products in EasyStore, read here.

Step 7: Organize Your Products with Categories & Tags

You can add categories for your product under EasyStore and Categories in the Joomla dashboard. Category creation is similar to that of creating products. 

You can also create Tags for your product under the Tags setting.

Furthermore, EasyStore allows you to create the category, tag, and variation of a product directly during product creation, so you do not always need to create tags and categories beforehand.

You can find a detailed walkthrough of the product category, tag, and variant creation here.

Step 8: Configure Region-Wise Tax Rates in Tax Settings 

So, you have set up and organized all the products in your store and are almost ready to sell. However, you might be concerned about setting the tax rates on your products.  

In any efficient eCommerce site, you need to comply with the tax regulations of the country you are selling in. EasyStore makes this process very intuitive with its Tax Settings.

You can add a country and configure the tax rates for your products. Find out more about tax features in EasyStore here.

Step 9: Provide Dynamic Shipping and Delivery Experience

Perhaps the most important aspect of selling products online is shipping. Because after all, your customers need to actually get their products the way they want to, right?

EasyStore allows full control over shipping with a plethora of settings including selecting shipping regions, choosing from a variety of shipping methods like free shipping or rating by weight, as well as adding a shipping carrier to track orders. 

Watch this video to get a full tutorial on shipping settings in EasyStore.

Step 10: Optimize Product Pages Using SP Page Builder

The look and feel of your website are the primary determiner of your store’s customer retention. Having a well-designed website with a good user experience is key to incentivizing customers to buy from your store.

With SP Page Builder’s integration with EasyStore, you have full control over the frontend design to optimize your product pages and storefronts. You can create unique product listings as well as individual product pages that perfectly showcase what you’re selling.

If you want to learn how to create a product page with SP Page Builder, head over to this video.

Step 11: Increase Conversion With Seamless Checkout

Many customers bounce from eCommerce sites just as they are about to purchase due to poorly designed checkout pages that lack convenient options. Your store needs to have an intuitive checkout page with a variety of payment options for your customers if you wish to increase the conversation rate for your store.

Worry not, as you can create a seamless checkout experience using EasyStore such as enabling the Guest Checkout option as well as customizing other required fields based on your preferences. You can also apply tax rates at checkout and enable coupon codes.

You can find a detailed description of checkout optimization with EasyStore in this documentation.

Step 12: Boost Your Site’s Performance With Analytics 

You have finally got your store up and running. Now all that’s left for you is to track your revenue and income and find more ways to improve your store in the future. 

You can keep track of your store’s performance through EasyStore’s Analytics options via the dashboard. Here, you will find a collection of data regarding your store such as sales percentages, revenue collection, products refunded, canceled orders, and much more. 

Learn more about EasyStore analytics here.

Summary

To clarify everything one last time, here are all the key ways you can set up the ideal eCommerce store in Joomla using EasyStore-

1. You can utilize the robust product creation settings and set categories and variations for each product.

2. You have complete control over shipping options and product tracking.

CRO is all about using data to understand how people navigate your website, and then using those data to give your store a makeover. But instead of picking a new font (although you can do that too!), we focus on making it a breeze for people to find what they want and hit that "buy" button.

Let's dive in and learn some powerful CRO strategies for your eCommerce store!

Why is CRO Crucial for eCommerce Success?

Summing it up in one sentence: CRO lets you double your eCommerce sales without a traffic explosion.  

Unlike traditional stores, your online store is a treasure trove of customer data. You can track every visitor's journey, identify drop-off points, and pinpoint areas for improvement. 

Here's a simple formula to illustrate the impact of CRO:

Sales = Traffic x Conversion Rate x Average Order Value

Imagine you want to double your sales. You can achieve this by:

• Doubling your website traffic (difficult and expensive)
• Doubling your conversion rate (more achievable with CRO)
• Doubling your average order value (upselling and cross-selling strategies)

Increasing traffic can be expensive through advertising, and upping the average order value relies on upselling and cross-selling strategies. But CRO lets you focus on the conversion rate, a more achievable target. 

Even a small increase in conversion rate can significantly boost your sales without a drastic traffic surge.

Calculating Your eCommerce Conversion Rate

The conversion rate is the percentage of visitors who complete a desired action, typically making a purchase. It's calculated by dividing your total sales by website visits within a specific timeframe.

Conversion rate = number of sales/number of visitors

Let's say you run an online clothing store. If you receive 1,000 website visits in a month and have 50 sales of shirts, your conversion rate would be 50 divided by 1,000, or 5%.

CRO & A Reliable eCommerce Solution is the Framework for Success

There's no one-size-fits-all solution for CRO. However, a structured approach built on data insights will let you optimize your eCommerce store for success. 

Here's how:

1. Choosing a powerful eCommerce platform: Choose a reliable Joomla eCommerce solution like EasyStore, which offers user-friendly features to build a professional website and manage your online store efficiently.
   
   
2. Uncover user behavior with analytics: Integrate website analytics tools like Google Analytics to gain valuable insights into user behavior. Analyze how customers navigate your website, identify potential drop-off points, and map out their journey across various touchpoints.

The Conversion Funnel: Breaking Down the Journey

Using the insights from the analytics tools, you can break conversion into a three-stage journey:

1. Interest: Does the user find what they're looking for?
2. Desire: Does the user want to add the product to their cart?
3. Action: Does the user complete the checkout process?

By optimizing each stage, you can significantly improve your overall conversion rate.

Stage 1: The User Finds What They're Looking For

Many potential customers abandon your store before purchase for two main reasons:

• Lack of trust: Unimpressive design, missing information, or a complex layout can deter users.
• Poor findability: If users can't find the products they need, they'll leave frustrated.

Here's how to address these issues:

• Build trust: A professional-looking website is essential to build trust. EasyStore integrates seamlessly with JoomShaper's library of beautiful, conversion-optimized eCommerce templates to help you create a trustworthy online store in no time.
• Enhance findability: EasyStore offers built-in search functionality with filtering options. You can also leverage EasyStore's ​​categories and tags to meticulously categorize your products. This allows users to browse by specific criteria, narrowing their search and increasing the likelihood of finding what they need. 

Stage 2: The User Adds the Product to Their Cart

Once a user finds an interesting product, you need to ignite their desire to buy. Three key drivers influence this stage:

• Emotional triggers: EasyStore allows you to upload high-quality product images, and videos. You can create product descriptions that focus on the benefits and emotional connection users have with the product.
• Tangible value proposition: EasyStore has deep integration with SP Page Builder - the leading Joomla page builder, that lets you edit single product pages to showcase product features and benefits prominently. You can also utilize variant options to highlight different product options (e.g., size, color).
• Social proof: You can also showcase user reviews and testimonials directly on your product pages, and even encourage social sharing with EasyStore to leverage the power of social influence. 

Stage 3: Checkout Conversion Rate Optimization 

The final hurdle is a smooth and streamlined checkout process. 

Here's where EasyStore's features shine:

Increase Motivation

• Limited-time offers & promotions: EasyStore's built-in coupon system allows you to create limited-time discounts and promotions to incentivize purchase decisions.
• Real-time stock levels: EasyStore allows you to display real-time stock levels, creating a sense of urgency and encouraging immediate purchase.

Facilitate Ease of Purchase

• Guest checkout: EasyStore offers guest checkout functionality, allowing users to purchase without creating an account, reducing friction and simplifying the process.
• Multiple payment options: EasyStore integrates with popular payment gateways like PayPal, Stripe, and more, catering to user preferences and streamlining checkout.
• Transparent shipping costs: EasyStore allows you to configure various shipping options and display shipping costs upfront during checkout, building trust and avoiding surprises. You can also offer free shipping above a certain order value as an incentive directly within EasyStore.
• Clear and concise checkout process: EasyStore's checkout process is designed to be clear and user-friendly. You can customize the checkout flow to minimize form fields and ensure a smooth navigation experience. 

Give a Little Nudge (The Final Push)

Sometimes, users just need a gentle nudge to complete their purchase. 

Since EasyStore has integration with SP Page Builder, you can create enticing Exit-Intent pop-ups for your EasyStore site. These targeted exit-intent pop-ups can offer discounts or free shipping to entice users to complete their purchases before abandoning their carts.

So in this article, we'll delve into some of the major factors influencing checkout abandonment and dish out some nifty ways to tackle them to enhance your Joomla store’s sales! Without further ado let’s get started.

Understanding Checkout Page’s Impact on Your Store and Why Continuous Optimization Matters

Your online store's checkout page serves as the bridge between your customer and finalizing their purchase. That’s why it's crucial to understand that a user-friendly checkout page is the potential key to making all the difference between turning a potential sale into revenue or fizzling out as an abandoned cart.

And this is where checkout page optimization comes into view. Because consumer behaviors and preferences are ever-evolving, what resonated with them yesterday might not hold the same appeal today. Also, there are myriad ways to optimize your Joomla eCommerce checkout page. These can be:

• Simplifying the checkout page’s form fields
• Providing optional fields
• Offering a variety of payment options
• Implementing guest checkout features
• Reducing page load times and more

By consistently monitoring and refining the checkout process, you can stay attuned to these changes while ensuring that your store’s checkout page remains in sync with evolving customer expectations.

Exploring Some of the Common Causes Behind Checkout Abandonment

From unexpected shipping costs and lengthy checkout processes to concerns about payment security and lack of guest checkout options, several factors can deter customers from completing their purchases. Here are some of the common ones:

No Guest Checkout

Not everyone visiting your store and looking to purchase wants to have an account at your store. Plain and simple!

Asking your users to register on your site just before they make a payment can be both frustrating and intimidating. Plus, existing users might struggle to recall their passwords and may prefer to proceed without logging in. Mandating customers to go through the process of re-registering can be a significant reason behind checkout abandonment.

Complex Checkout Process

Navigating through the checkout can feel like a bit of a puzzle for customers when they sense it's asking them to do more than necessary just to buy something online. This can happen when they're swamped with form fields, clicking through what seems like endless pages, or being nudged to create an account for a quick purchase. Plus, not knowing upfront about shipping costs and delivery times can really throw them off. It's all about keeping things clear and simple for your shoppers!

Lack of Shipping or Payment Options

Imagine as a customer you happily chose your products to buy urgently, added them to your cart, and are all ready to get done with the checkout formalities only to find yourself stuck with just one shipping option. Depressing right? The lack of shipping options is a bummer because not having enough shipping methods can really draw out customers and even cost the store some sales.

The same goes for insufficient payment options. Not all potential customers will be inclined to pay using the limited options you offer. Some can lean towards cash on delivery while others feel more comfortable with online payments or bank transfers. The goal is to make payment methods flexible both for the merchants and the customers.

How EasyStore Can Simplify Best Practices for Checkout Pages

All the complexities and causes discussed so far could be met at the vanishing point called EasyStore. Because it's like a magic wand that turns all those challenges into simple solutions. And to spruce things up even better, JoomShaper offers awesome templates that are completely compatible with EasyStore and offer checkout pages that are super user-friendly, distraction-free, and provide the perfect layout for your Joomla checkout page! You can explore these templates here.

Now let’s check out some built-in features of EasyStore that will ease up the Joomla checkout experience for your users.

Skip the Signups With Convenient Guest Checkout

With EasyStore, providing guest checkout to your customers is a breeze! Simply navigate to EasyStore’s Checkout settings, toggle on the “Allow Guest Checkout” option, and you're all set! No more unnecessary steps during checkout to slow customers down and make them second-guess their purchase.

Let Your Customers Pick Their Shipping and Payment Paths

One of the key conveniences of EasyStore is its support for multiple shipping and payment methods. It's important to give your customers the freedom to choose their preferred shipping and payment options and EasyStore helps you achieve that effortlessly.

From your EasyStore’s Shipping Settings, choose and set up the region then easily configure your shipping and delivery methods. Whether you opt for Standard, Express, Free Delivery, or even methods based on product weight, you can easily offer your customers various options with clear delivery rates.

And the same goes for the payment options too. EasyStore offers a variety of well-known and secure payment methods for you to choose from. Whether you wish to provide cash on delivery, online payments, or bank transfer - you name it, EasyStore has it!

Present the Payable Amount With Precision

When it comes to payment, nothing should remain hidden from your customers. What your customers see on the checkout page is exactly what they'll pay.

EasyStore makes the checkout process smooth sailing by showing item prices, any taxes, and discounts applied, all laid out clearly, and precisely. Customers care about knowing exactly how much they're spending, and with EasyStore, making that happen is a piece of cake!

Provide Room for Customer Notes

Allowing your customers to include extra notes with their purchases can greatly improve their shopping experience. They might want to provide the merchants with special instructions for shipping, payment, or specific items they've bought. Also, this can be an excellent addition if the store sells customized items and the user wants to specify any additional requirements. 

With EasyStore, you will get a built-in "Customer Notes" field to make your customers' shopping experience even better. This additional field is completely optional so your users have the flexibility to skip it if they prefer.

And if you still have confusion on how to configure your EasyStore settings then don't worry. Check out our YouTube tutorials on various settings to simplify your EasyStore experience!

Wrapping Up

Once you've fine-tuned your checkout process with EasyStore, expect to see a notable uptick in sales. Keep in mind to regularly test and refine your checkout page to drive up conversion rates and ensure a steady increase in sales over time.
