<h2>Simplify Adding Products To Your Store</h2>
<p>Smart Category for WooCommerce makes product submission fast and easy. Many eCommerce shops have a long list of categories. The admins who add products spend too much time scrolling and looking for categories to assign.</p>
<p>Smart Category for WooCommerce shortens the process.</p>
<p>We added a box in the sidebar above product categories that automatically suggests the top five categories based on the product’s title.</p>
<p>Smart Category also works perfectly for WooCommerce brands. It automatically suggests the best-matching brand.</p>
<p>It can also suggest the ideal matching terms with any other custom taxonomy a product uses.</p>
<p>Product submission is simple and less frustrating with Smart Category for WooCommerce.</p>

<h2>Keep Your Customers Happy With Automated SMS Order Notifications</h2>
<p>Send SMS updates to customers when their order status is updated and receive an SMS message when a customer places a new order.</p>
<h3>Why offer SMS Order Updates?</h3>
<p>Simple – it’s the best way to give customers information about their order. According to Frost & Sullivan, SMS messages have a 95% open rate and most are read within 5 seconds. This is three times better than email and can be far more personalized. For example, you could customize the “Completed” status SMS message to include a coupon code for 10% off the next order. Get creative and watch your sales soar!</p>

For example, let customers know when an order has been updated to your custom “shipped” status, and you can even customize the text used for your custom statuses.</p>
<h3>Powerful Customization</h3>
<p>You can change which order status changes will send updates to customers and customize SMS messages to include store name, order ID, order amount, order status, and other order data along with your custom text.</p>
<p>You also have the option to automatically shorten URLs within messages using Google’s URL shortener.</p>
