Keep customersWin-back: email + WhatsApp automation
A we-miss-you email, a WhatsApp comeback code if it isn’t opened, then a last-chance email. Bring back more lapsed customers by reaching them on two channels.
How it works
Starts when the tag “inactive-60-days” is added. 2 emails + 1 WhatsApp over 12 days.
- Day 0: send “We miss you, Alex”
Design: We miss you template - Wait 5 days
- Only continue if the contact didn’t open the previous email
Everyone else leaves the sequence here. - Day 5: send the WhatsApp message “Win-back offer”
Template: Win-back offer WhatsApp template - Wait 7 days
- Only continue if the contact doesn’t have the tag “customer” (for example, hasn’t bought yet)
Everyone else leaves the sequence here. - Day 12: send “Last chance: your welcome-back gift”
Design: Last chance / sale ends tonight template
