For FMCG brands, repeat purchases and strong customer loyalty are the key to growth. Brightleaf, a fast-growing FMCG company, had built a great product but needed a way to turn one-time buyers into repeat customers.
They turned to Media Drifters to create a scalable email marketing system that would drive engagement and long-term sales.
🚨 The Challenge
Brightleaf was already running their e-commerce operations on Shopify, but their email marketing was underutilized. The main challenges included:
- No automated email flows — only occasional newsletters.
- Low customer retention and repeat purchase rate.
- Missed opportunities to upsell and cross-sell products.
- No segmentation to target customers with personalized offers.
âś… The Media Drifters Solution
We set up a complete email automation ecosystem for Brightleaf using Klaviyo, integrated with Shopify.
1. Welcome Flow
Every new subscriber received a warm, brand-aligned welcome series, introducing Brightleaf’s story, mission, and product range.
2. Abandoned Cart Recovery
We implemented a multi-step abandoned cart sequence with:
- Product reminders.
- Incentives like free shipping or discounts.
- Social proof (reviews, testimonials) to reduce hesitation.
3. Post-Purchase Flow
To drive loyalty, we created post-purchase nurturing emails with:
- Thank-you notes.
- How-to guides for using products.
- Recommendations for complementary products.
4. Win-Back Campaigns
Inactive customers received win-back campaigns with limited-time offers, re-engaging them before they churned.
5. Personalized Segmentation
Using Klaviyo’s powerful segmentation, we:
- Targeted high-value customers with VIP perks.
- Suggested product bundles to frequent buyers.
- Sent geo-targeted campaigns for region-specific promotions.
🚀 The Results
The transformation was immediate and measurable:
- 5x increase in sales from email marketing campaigns.
- Higher customer retention and repeat order frequency.
- Cart recovery rates that outperformed industry averages.
- Stronger brand loyalty built through automated yet personal touchpoints.
đź’ˇ Key Takeaways
Automated flows win — welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase, and win-back flows drive consistent revenue.
Personalization matters — segmentation ensures the right message reaches the right audience.
