Timeframe

75 Days

The Challenge

Email revenue was unpredictable. Some weeks performed well, others fell flat. Campaigns were doing the heavy lifting, while flows were outdated and poorly segmented.

Challenges included:

  • Low flow coverage

  • No SMS integration

  • Minimal personalization

  • Weak post-purchase retention

Goals We Set Together

  • Create a dependable revenue baseline through automated flows

  • Increase automated revenue contribution

  • Build a scalable retention system

  • Improve customer experience post-purchase

  • Reduce campaign dependency

Our Approach

We rebuilt the lifecycle system from the ground up.

1. Full Lifecycle Mapping

Defined key touchpoints across the customer journey.

Flow Implementation (10 Core Flows)

Built flows optimized for intent, timing, and conversion.

SMS Integration

Added SMS where urgency and immediacy mattered most.

Continuous Optimization

Monitored performance and refined flows weekly.

The Results

Email became a stable, predictable revenue engine.

  • 31% of total revenue generated from flows

  • +158% increase in automated revenue

  • +24% improvement in repeat purchase rate

  • Stronger engagement and deliverability

What We Built

Each flow was optimized for timing, segmentation, value delivery, and conversion — turning email into a long-term asset rather than a one-off channel.

  • Welcome Flow

  • Abandoned Cart (Email + SMS)

  • Browse Abandonment

  • Post-Purchase Education

  • Cross-Sell / Upsell

  • Win-Back

  • Back-in-Stock

  • Review Request

  • VIP Flow

  • SMS Campaign Logic

“We finally stopped guessing. Email now works in the background, every day.”
