Understand what this lesson solves
Retention email should separate replenishment, winback, and loyalty instead of sending one discount to everyone. This lesson designs repeat-purchase paths with cycle, inventory, support, and profit boundaries.
A Shopify email marketing and lifecycle series for teams with subscribers, orders, or paid traffic, covering welcome flows, abandonment recovery, segmentation, deliverability, repeat purchase, winback, and monthly email operating rhythm.
Lesson outline
- 1Use the Purchase Cycle Planner to choose the product pattern
- 2Read recent order and customer evidence first
- 3Write trigger window and shipping boundary
- 4Run subscription and hard-stop checks
- 5Check inventory, shipping, support, and profit line
- 6Choose replenishment, loyalty, winback, accessory, or do-not-send
Public core framework
- Classify the product as consumable refill, accessory repeat purchase, seasonal repeat purchase, or one-time durable before writing any timing. Do not jump straight into a 30-day refill, 90-day winback, or discount reminder.
- Use Shopify Orders / line items, Shopify Customers, and customer segments to check SKU, variant, quantity, pack size, last order, discount code, refund, support state, and marketing consent.
