Prose was recently featured in E-Commerce News and B2C Brief, where Justin Belmont, CEO & Founder, shared high-impact digital strategies to help brands boost their e-commerce performance. From leveraging analytics to improving email engagement, these insights offer practical, data-driven ways to refine your strategy and deliver results.
Here’s what Justin had to say:
Use heatmaps to uncover exactly where users get stuck
Topic: Apply behavioral analytics to remove friction from your website.
Quote: “Focus on your conversion rate—it's the ultimate health check for your ecommerce store. Use analytics to dig into where customers drop off, like your product pages or checkout process. One tip? Set up heatmaps or session recordings to see exactly how users interact with your site. This helped one client realize their shipping info was buried, and fixing that bumped conversions instantly. Beyond conversions, I keep a close eye on metrics like average order value and cart abandonment rate—they tell the real story of what's working and what's not. Analytics isn't just data; it's a treasure map.”

Send fewer, smarter emails that actually matter
Topic: Prioritize personalization and timing in email marketing to increase impact.
Quote: “The key for B2C email marketing is quality over quantity—ditch the spray-and-pray approach. Focus on sending emails that actually matter to your audience, like personalized offers, helpful tips, or exclusive first looks. Timing is crucial, too: don’t flood inboxes. A well-timed email that feels like it’s speaking directly to them will always outperform daily spam. To ensure your emails are well-received, segment your list like a pro. Tailor content based on purchase history, preferences, or behavior. And don’t forget: keep it short, visually appealing, and add a clear call to action. Bonus points for using a conversational tone—it makes your brand feel human, not like a sales bot.”

From numbers to narratives: Digital strategy meets practical application
E-commerce success doesn’t come from guesswork, it comes from paying attention. Whether it’s digging into user behavior through heatmaps or sending intentional, personalized emails, digital strategies should be rooted in real insights and designed with the customer experience in mind.
Key takeaways:
- Use analytics tools like heatmaps and session recordings to diagnose friction points.
- Focus your email strategy on value, timing, and personalization, not volume.
- Metrics like AOV and abandonment rate reveal what needs fixing and what’s flourishing.
Bonus feature: How Prose transforms data into strategy
Data without direction is just noise. At Prose, we turn metrics into meaning, translating analytics into clear, actionable content strategies that connect with your audience and drive results. Here’s how we transform raw insight into refined impact:
- Data-backed site audits: Behind every click—or lack of one—is a story. We dig into performance dashboards, heatmaps, bounce rates, and scroll-depth data to understand where users engage, stall, or exit. From there, we create content and UX optimizations that reduce friction, clarify messaging, and guide visitors smoothly through your funnel. Whether it’s rewriting CTAs, reordering layouts, or rethinking page structure, we turn diagnostic data into real momentum.
- Email marketing that resonates: Email remains one of the highest-ROI channels when it’s done right. We use audience segmentation, engagement history, and behavioral cues to craft email campaigns that speak to the right people at the right time. Our approach strikes the balance between promotional urgency and emotional storytelling, delivering messages that not only get opened but get results.
- Customer-centric content: Great content isn’t just about what you want to say—it’s about what your audience needs to hear. At Prose, we use market research, customer feedback, and campaign data to align every message with your audience’s mindset. From blog articles to product pages, we craft copy that meets users where they are—emotionally, behaviorally, and strategically—building trust while moving them closer to conversion.
In today’s digital landscape, intuition isn’t enough. Brands that thrive are the ones that listen to their data, then use it to deepen connection, not just optimize performance. At Prose, we bridge the gap between numbers and nuance to create content strategies that are as smart as they are human.
