Before the next email, check who can receive it.

A customer can be ready to buy and still fall outside the rules of a journey. Thrivelia’s work with Daye focused on those rules, practical account fixes and a clearer brief for the next message.

March 2023 advisory work · Activities recorded 10 April 2023Segmentation, account fixes and welcome/cart planning

THE ORDER OF DECISIONS

Eligibility first.Product context next.Then the message.

Review the event and customer rules that control entry.

Use the product interest to make the follow-up useful.

Check purchase exclusions and repeat-entry rules.

01 · THE CONTEXT

The journey began with the account logic.

Daye’s catalogue served different product interests. A single welcome or cart message could not explain every reason a customer might return. Before changing the creative, the account review examined who could enter the existing journeys and which customers the rules left out.

The historical abandoned-cart brief identified an important constraint: entry was tied to an account-created event and a zero-paid-orders condition. This limited the existing path for returning customers. The brief also recorded that the message did not dynamically show the abandoned item.

Those observations shaped a consulting engagement around segmentation, practical fixes and more specific journey planning.

THE CUSTOMER QUESTION

Does the journey recognise the customer who is actually trying to buy?

02 · THE DOCUMENTED WORK

Fix the rules. Make the next brief useful.

01

Update customer segmentation

The work log records updated customer-segment rules so that current customers were captured, alongside segments prepared for list cleanup. Audience definitions were treated as part of the customer experience.

02

Repair the referral codes

Referral-flow code fixes addressed a concrete part of the existing programme. This was account maintenance with a specific purpose: keep the promised referral mechanism usable.

03

Support welcome and cart setup

Thrivelia briefed and participated in welcome and abandoned-cart work and helped correct parts of the current setup. The work log states that setup remained incomplete at that point.

04

Work through decisions with the team

Workshops covered layouts and segmentation. The output connected the diagnosis to decisions the team could continue implementing, rather than leaving a list of general recommendations.

03 · THE RECOMMENDED CART JOURNEY

Give different product interests different follow-up.

The March brief proposed three content paths: tampons, probiotics and other products. These are recommended branches in the brief, rather than three verified live flows.

Make entry reflect intent

The brief recommended improving the event integration so that cart intent could drive entry. It also considered returning customers and how to show the relevant abandoned item.

Review the event that starts the journey.

Check customer eligibility against purchase history.

Carry product context into the follow-up.

Make exit reflect the purchase

The recommended logic included purchase suppression after entry and a 30-day repeat-entry rule. Subscription-specific content and customer questions would shape the message.

Stop recovery when the customer buys.

Control how soon someone can re-enter.

Answer the question relevant to the product.

The diagrams and decision lists explain the consulting brief. They do not establish that the proposed integration or every journey change was launched.

04 · THE OUTCOME

A clearer basis for the next account change.

The documented delivery includes revised customer rules, cleanup segments, referral-code fixes, welcome/cart setup support and team workshops. The planning work made the relationship between eligibility, product interest and follow-up more explicit.

The record also preserves the unfinished part of the work: welcome and cart setup was still incomplete in the activity log. The case therefore describes consulting and account support, with further journey recommendations handed over. It does not claim a completed lifecycle rebuild or a measured revenue increase.

WHAT TO APPLY

Audit the path before writing another message.

List the events and customer conditions that control entry, then test the people who should qualify: a first-time shopper, a returning buyer and someone interested in a different product. Check the exit after purchase too.

A useful brief names the current rule, the customer it misses and the change needed. That gives the next copy, design and implementation decision a clear purpose.

A cart reminder that leaves room for a reply

Original email brief · March 2023

Looks like you forgot something

Introduce shopping plans and different saving options (3/6/12)

Ask what made them check Daye and provide the option to answer them directly, as this email is monitored.

Plain text outreach

The original brief pairs a return-to-cart message with a direct question. This is proposed email direction from the consulting work.

A different question for a different product

Original email brief · March 2023

Who are probiotics for

Thank the user for considering proviotics, mention this is the second most popular product.

Make it relatable, and ask what they are trying to achieve.

Show subscription options as methods of saving

The product-specific brief changes the information and question in the follow-up. It records a recommendation, rather than a confirmed launched email.
