Shopify Flow is an ecommerce automation platform that enables you to automate tasks and processes within your store and across your apps.
I'm wondering if there's a way to set up getting an email notification when it's been a year since a customer ordered specific items in a collection.
Hey @sstephan,
Yes, it is possible. You can set-up a Shopify Flow for it that triggers when an order is created. It will need to check if any of the order items are one of the target items. If no, it will exit. If yes, it will wait a year and check again if the customer has placed an order for any one of those specific items. If he has, it will exit. If no, it will send out an internal email (in case the staff needs to be notified) otherwise you can use Klaviyo to send out an email to the customer.
This is roughly how it would look like.
I hope it helps. If you have any more queries related to this, feel free to reach out.
Hi @sstephan 👋 See the anniversary or birthday templates in customer segments or flow.
Roughly use a customer segment checking something like "orders_placed(count_at_least: 1) = true AND orders_placed(since: -365d) = false" ..
Then in flow see the birthday template and modify it to use the wanted segment.
See any of the email,weekly,monthly, schedule keyword templates for other logic legos.
To email the customer directly requires another app.
