Fix Your ROAS: The E-commerce Email & Ads Flywheel

Are your Meta and Google ad campaigns underperforming? Since iOS 14 and the rise of browser privacy, tracking pixels are failing. This shrinks your retargeting audiences and blinds your ad platforms to actual conversions, causing your Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) to plummet and wasting your budget.


This playbook provides a step-by-step guide to break free from unreliable browser tracking. You'll build a system that uses first-party data to create a powerful, self-reinforcing growth engine. First, you'll use engaging quizzes and pop-ups to capture high-intent customer emails on your site. Then, you'll use those emails to run automated, personalized marketing flows that drive sales. Finally, you'll sync these valuable customer segments directly to Meta and Google, creating near-perfect match rate audiences for retargeting and lookalike campaigns that pixels can no longer build.

Expected Outcomes

  • Significantly increase the match rate and size of your retargeting audiences.
  • Improve ROAS by feeding ad platforms reliable first-party conversion data.
  • Build a durable, owned marketing asset (your email list) immune to platform changes.
  • Recover more abandoned carts through hyper-targeted email and ad campaigns.
  • Decrease customer acquisition costs by creating high-performing lookalike audiences.

Integration Logic

  • Klaviyo Audience Sync

    When a user submits a response to a specific Typeform, this integration triggers an action in Klaviyo. It will either create a new profile in a designated Klaviyo list or update an existing profile if the email address already exists. The integration allows you to map answers from your Typeform questions (e.g., Name, Email, Phone Number, custom questions) to corresponding properties on the Klaviyo profile.
