Three emails. In the right order.

An abandoned cart flow that converts under 3 percent is almost never a copy problem. It is timing and offer order. This is the sequence that works, and the checks to run before you rewrite a single word.

  • 3.33% Average placed order rate across 143,000+ cart flows (Klaviyo benchmark, 2023 data)
  • 7.7% What the top 10 percent of cart flows convert (Klaviyo benchmark, 2023 data)
  • About 70% Of carts are abandoned (Baymard Institute, 50+ studies)

What is inside: 6 steps in 4 pages

  1. Email one within the hour. While they are still thinking about it. Answer the shipping and total cost question in the first lines. No discount.
  2. Email two around hour 24. Handle the objection: reviews, sizing, delivery, returns, the question they did not ask.
  3. Email three at hour 48 to 72. The last reminder. Add an incentive only here, and only if margin allows.
  4. SMS only with consent.
  5. Test it yourself.
  6. Check delivery before copy.
