**Shopping cart abandonment** has plagued online store owners for years. As new technology develops, we’ve been able to better understand and address the [causes of abandonment](https://www.3dcart.com/cart-abandonment.html). But with these new solutions, technology has also brought new challenges.

**Marketing automation** – heard of it? Over the last few years, software built to automate marketing has sprung up everywhere, and email marketing isn’t left in the dust.

The main selling point behind email automation is that it enables marketers to catch the consumer at the right moment, when they’re ready to buy.

Like any new technology, plenty of marketers hopped right on board. As an [ecommerce business](https://www.3dcart.com/start-an-ecommerce-business.html) owner, you’re a little more cautious. You want to see how this new tech plays out, to find\[...\]

Is your business making use of the ecommerce opportunity at your fingertips?

When we talk about ecommerce, most of us imagine retail powerhouses like [Amazon](https://www.3dcart.com/sell-on-amazon.html) or Wayfair – but the **B2B ecommerce** potential is even bigger. In fact, the business ecommerce market topped $7.7 trillion in 2017. That’s a huge opportunity.

Why the popularity of ecommerce for B2B transactions? There are a lot of reasons for ecommerce’s growth in B2B sales, but the biggest reason isn’t so different from the B2C world:\[...\]

[**](https://blog.shift4shop.com/common-mistakes-cause-cart-abandonment)

**Shopping cart abandonment** is an epidemic in the ecommerce world.

Recent data shows the [average cart abandonment rate](https://www.3dcart.com/cart-abandonment.html) is almost 70 percent. That means only 3 out of every 10 people who places an item in their cart actually buys it.

Cart abandonment comes with the territory of owning an ecommerce store, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing you can do about it. Customers abandon shopping carts for all kinds of reasons, but many online store owners commit the same **common mistakes that drive up\[...\]**

Where do your new customers come from? [Facebook ads](https://www.3dcart.com/shopping-cart-software/facebook-dynamic-ads.html)? Google search results? Thin air?

Time and again, studies show that **email marketing** is the most effective channel for customer acquisition. Reports estimate [44% of all consumers](https://vivipins.com/email-marketing/) made a purchase based on an email newsletter last year. McKinsey & Company found that email helps acquire new customers [40 times better](https://blog.capterra.com/statistics-email-marketing-not-dead/) than social media.

Conversion rates and click-through-rate in those emails are [3x better](http://www.mckinsey.com/insights/marketing_sales/why_marketers_should_keep_sending_you_emails), and the value of those conversions can be\[...\]
