Overview

In an online store, the same customer may browse, abandon a cart, buy, and cancel an order in a short time. In Klaviyo, it's important to build messages around the customer's current status, not a previously saved audience list. Good planning connects store events to entry and exit conditions, and separates actual purchase measurement from revenue attributed to a campaign.

Features

  • Marketing journeys and customer segments
  • Email, SMS, and messaging capabilities
  • Using customer context for marketing and service

Business uses

  • Following up after a purchase based on product type
  • Sending a cart reminder that stops after an order is completed

Getting started

  • Connect a test store and confirm that purchase and cancellation events appear in the customer profile.
  • Place a test order in the store and then cancel it. Check how both events affect the customer profile, segment, and planned follow-up messages.
  • Trigger a cart journey for a test customer who completed a purchase, confirm the reminder stops, and check that the same order is not counted as a duplicate success in your reports.

What to check

  • Check the availability of messaging channels in target countries, not just the channel list on the website.
  • Review charges based on profiles and sends, and how revenue double-counting in journeys is prevented.
