The E-commerce Power Stack: Turn Abandoned Carts into Automated Revenue

Your generic abandoned cart emails are leaking revenue. Low open rates, a lack of personalization, and poorly timed messages mean you're failing to recapture customers who were moments away from buying. You're unable to segment users by cart value or purchase history, leaving you stuck with a one-size-fits-all strategy that simply doesn't convert.


This playbook implements 'The E-commerce Power Stack,' a solution centered on a marketing automation platform built specifically for online stores. By integrating directly with your e-commerce data, it enables powerful, personalized recovery campaigns. We'll show you how to leverage pre-built, high-converting workflows for cart abandonment, segmenting new vs. returning customers, and targeting high-value carts. Best of all, this entire system can be implemented in days, not weeks, for an immediate impact on your bottom line.

  • Dramatically increase abandoned cart recovery rates and recapture lost revenue.
  • Boost email open and conversion rates through advanced personalization and timing.

Integration Logic

  • Klaviyo & BigCommerce Connector

    This is a one-way data synchronization from BigCommerce to Klaviyo. The integration uses BigCommerce's API to pull historical customer profiles, order history, and the product catalog into Klaviyo. It also installs a JavaScript snippet on the BigCommerce store to track real-time user activity, such as 'Active on Site', 'Viewed Product', and 'Started Checkout'. These events and data points allow for the creation of targeted segments and automated marketing flows (e.g., abandoned cart reminders, post-purchase follow-ups) within Klaviyo.
