Hi @SwilArts
To optimize it, make sure to segment your audience, use automated flows (like welcome emails or post-purchase follow-ups), and experiment with A/B testing for subject lines and content.
If you start hitting Shopify’s monthly send limits or need more advanced features like better automation, AI-driven personalization, or detailed analytics, it might be time to switch to a specialized provider like Klaviyo, Mailchimp, or Omnisend
