How the Project was Built

From strategy to execution, here's how I designed and built a welcome flow experience that drives results.

Overview

This project focused on re-engaging customers who abandoned products in their cart by creating a segmented recovery flow designed around customer intent and purchase behavior.

The Problem

Customers abandon carts for different reasons including distractions, comparison shopping, or hesitation around the purchase, requiring more than simple reminder emails to recover conversions.

The Approach

I designed a segmented abandoned cart journey that balanced reminders, product reinforcement, social proof, and urgency based on whether the customer was new or returning.

Execution

  • Planned separate abandoned cart journeys for new and returning customers
  • Structured each email around a specific conversion-focused objective
  • Designed responsive emails with dynamic cart product sections
  • Incorporated social proof, urgency, and founder-style messaging throughout the flow
  • Built layouts focused on clarity, scanability, and fast return-to-cart actions

Impact

  • Created a more strategic and segmented cart recovery experience
  • Improved clarity and visibility around cart return actions
  • Built a scalable lifecycle system for future optimization and testing
  • Supported stronger purchase intent through reassurance and urgency messaging
