Common Mistakes

❌ Emailing too soon (<30 min)
→ They might still be checkingout!

❌ Too many emails (5+)
→ Annoying, diminishing returns

❌ Same discount every time
→ Trains customers to abandon for discount

❌ No mobile optimization
→ Most carts abandoned on mobile

❌ Slow load times
→ Every 1-second delay = 7% less conversions

❌ Hidden costs (surprise shipping)
→ #1 reason for abandonment

✅ Fix the root cause, don't just recover
