And much, much more
Check Out This A/B Split Test Of The Week
This was an AB Checkout Email #1 Test
This test was ran on one of our clients Abandoned Checkout Flow in the first email.
We tested this email within 48 hours of bringing on this client because it was their highest revenue producing flow email. Therefore it was very high leverage.
The test we ran was focused on handling a more real objection that the ready might have if they abandoned the checkout process.
The original email was talking about Free Shipping Worldwide. But most of the brands orders come from the US so it’s not exactly an objection most readers are facing.
Instead we showcased this brands unique LifeTime Warranty and their 60 No-Risk Money-Back Guarantee.
This is a much stronger selling mechanism at this point in the funnel.
An this split test showed that.
ACTION ITEM:
Audit your AB Checkout Flow Email #1
See if you are handling any objections in that email
Ask yourself “What objections might my customers have at this point in the buying journey?”
Come up with another objection to combat in your B variation
Test the new B variation against the original

The 3 Simple Steps to Scaling Your Brands Email Marketing Channel to 40% Of Your Revenue
Most people overcomplicate the hell out of Ecom Email Marketing.
When I say it’s simple…I mean it.
And since I know your a busy business owner, I’ll explain this in as few words as possible.
If you want to grow this channel for your brand in 2024 so that you can scale faster and more profitably (by lowering your LTV to CAC ratio) then you should focus on 3 things:
Email List Growth
Converting Non-Buyers For The First Time
Creating Lifelong Customers
That’s it.
Focusing on anything else is a waste of time until you have nailed these.
Requesting more reviews and UGC, getting social snowball email flows set up, trying to set up 10 cross sell flows.
All these things are good. But they bring a much lower higher than if you have not nailed the big 3 needle movers.
Grow your email list faster every month by setting up and testing the sh*t out of 3 opt in forms:
Mobile Only Pop-Up
Desktop Only Pop-Up
Footer Opt-in
Convert more of those new subscribers into first time buyers by setting up and testing the sh*t out of your pre-purchase flows:
Welcome Flow
Abandonment Flows
And create more lifelong customers with nurturing and educational content in your:
Post-Purchase Flows
Weekly Campaign Emails
If you focused on nothing other than testing those 3 things, you will easily hit 30%+ of your brands monthly revenue coming from your email marketing channel.
