Mountain View, CA, April 18, 2012 --(PR.com)-- EverydaySource.com (http://www.everydaysource.com), a one-stop online shopping destination for all electronic accessories, released data today showing strong growth in their business via their social commerce initiatives.

EverydaySource.com embedded some of the ShopSocially applications on their site and the results were immediate.

Here are some of the benefits it gained via the ShopSocially platform
- Make email promotion campaigns go viral

- Convert website visitors into Facebook fans
- Convert shoppers into brand ambassadors
- Enable social discovery of products on website and on Facebook via a dedicated shopping community
- Rely on an underlying framework which supports rule-based targeting, A/B testing, analytics, incentive management and SEO hooks API.

EverydaySource’s initiative is delivering solid benefits such as new customer referrals, qualified Facebook fans, increase in conversion, improvement in time-on-site and increase in revenues. These improvements are reflected in the following figures:
- 9.29% uplift in sales conversion
- 2% of website visitors converting into qualified Facebook fans
- $178,368 projected increase in revenues
- 98% increase in engagement on the website
- Hundreds of purchases shared daily for discovery by other members of the social network

“ShopSocially helped us define, and execute our social strategy. They really have a good understanding of this space,” said Jack Sheng, CEO of EverydaySource.com. “We found ShopSocially to be a comprehensive social commerce platform. It has a rich set of applications and controls and is really easy to integrate. We are delighted with the results.”

“Social commerce is greatly hyped but not well understood yet. Most retailers have relegated their social strategy to their Facebook community manager. That’s a very narrow view,” said Jai Rawat, CEO of ShopSocially. “The right strategy is to add social strategy in the overall fabric. Our platform takes a comprehensive approach and delivers real ROI. We are glad to see the success for EverydaySource.”
