What you need

  • Shopify
  • Klaviyo

When it runs

A checkout is started and not completed after a few hours.

Steps

  1. In Klaviyo, use the "Checkout Started" flow trigger with a delay.
  2. Add a filter so customers who placed an order since then are skipped.
  3. Send one short plain-text email from a real person's name asking if something went wrong.
  4. Tag replies in your inbox and read them weekly; they tell you what to fix on the product page.
  5. Only add a discount email later if the replies point to price.

Prompt or template to copy

(Template) Hi {first name}, I saw you got partway through checkout for {product}. Was something unclear or not working? Just hit reply; I read these myself. {name}

Why this usually works

Why it worksThe replies are the real value: they surface shipping costs, missing sizes or broken checkout steps.

What to watch for

Watch forRespect unsubscribes and local email consent rules for cart emails.
Watch forOne email is enough; a sequence of three feels pushy for small stores.
