The Challenge
Western Bagel is an old school company that was new to eCommerce, their main goal was to increase repeat customers, which made this brand perfect to throw in the Klaviyo oven. They had no email marketing strategy or setup prior to working with us. One thing was that the brand wasn’t completely bought in regarding digital marketing or eCommerce.
This brand had no email list, so when working with them we needed to ensure lead forms were created, a challenge we ran into was that this brand was on an old shopping cart platform that was able to work with Klaviyo, ultimately we were there to help with the move over to WooCommerce and begun to create automations that helped with their main goal or repeat customers.
Another challenge was education, the client did not have the proper education awareness regarding what their customers needed to know in order to convert, with an average order value of $34, the shipping to product price was out of whack and needed some education to give the customers more reassurance that a perishable product would in fact ship and be in good quality upon arrival.
The Solution
Our team started this project by creating the key core email engagement flows of the welcome series, abandoned cart series, and then the browse abandonment series. These are all imperative flows because they cover each part of the sales funnel. This allowed the brand to welcome customers with the education that way they were primed and ready to purchase after browsing the site.
The abandoned cart flow worked very well for this brand because there was plenty of education done prior to one starting checkout. After launching a successful festive fall flavor, there were even more abandoned carts made, because of the unknown taste of the product, in the abandoned cart, we helped create a specific track for this product that helped answer questions and improved the conversion rate by 3.7% during the sale period.
In addition to utilizing automation, effectively targeting specific customer segments enabled this brand to deliver timely and relevant messages. By leveraging product sales, new product launches, informational articles, and inspirational content, the brand achieved a remarkable campaign revenue of $75,300 in 2022.
