I am a newbie and my requirement is to push promos to re-visitors (who didn't order anything on their first visit).
I couldn't find much help online(other than articles on google analytics).
Any help or direction towards right sources is appreciated.
Depends on how you plan to store data. But as a cheap and simple way, you can accomplish this with javascript and setting localStorage.
