Where we started

Sales were happening. The customers belonged to someone else.

  1. 01

    Amazon kept the customer

    Most orders ran through Amazon and resellers. Phantum never saw those buyers’ emails, so it could not sell to them again.

  2. 02

    Gaps in the automations

    No complete set of flows: nothing reliable to welcome subscribers, recover carts or follow up after an order.

  3. 03

    No campaigns

    The subscribers Phantum did have never heard from the brand.

  4. 04

    One generic pop-up

    The only way onto the list was an exit pop-up with a 10% code. Nothing gave people a reason to join.

The plan

A four-part plan, delivered the day after kickoff.

The strategy came first, on November 5. Then the build: five flows, ten emails, a pop-up quiz and an insert card, with revisions and handover by November 13.

01

List growth

A pop-up that gives people a reason to join, and an insert card that turns Amazon buyers into subscribers.

02

Lifecycle flows

Welcome, abandoned cart, browse abandonment, post-purchase and winback: the emails that sell while nobody is working.

03

Campaigns

Start with one a week and build to three or four: setup of the month, product stories, creator features, launches.

04

Segmentation

Tag every subscriber as gamer, designer or creator, and split by new, first-time, repeat and lapsed buyers.

Capture 1 · The pop-up

A quiz instead of a ‘don’t leave’ coupon.

The old pop-up fired on exit and offered a code. The new one asks a question first: what matters most in your setup? The answer tags each subscriber as a type of player, so the emails that follow can speak to it. Then it asks for the email, for 10% off.

Capture 2 · The insert card

A way into every Amazon box.

Phantum could not get emails from Amazon or reseller orders. A card in the package could. It ships in every order, third-party fulfillment included, and sends the buyer to a Phantum sign-up page for 15% off their next order, bought direct.

  1. 01

    The order ships

    From Amazon, a reseller or Phantum’s own store.

  2. 02

    The card is in the box

    “Thank you for your order” on the front, a QR code on the back.

  3. 03

    The QR opens a Phantum page

    Brand story, sign-up, and the code for the next order.

  4. 04

    The flows take over

    Welcome and post-purchase emails, to a customer Phantum now owns.

The flow build

Five flows. Ten emails.

Every automation in the plan, built end to end, from the trigger to the last email, plus a template for weekly campaigns. All in Phantum’s look: dark, quiet, product first.

Inside the flows

Dark, quiet, and built like the product.

How we wrote it

“…we get it. Clean, fast, and built for aim.”

From the browse abandonment email.

  1. 01

    Talk like the buyer

    Setup, glide, aim. Gamers do not shop for a “high-quality mousepad”, so the emails never say it.

  2. 02

    Let other players sell it

    Real Trustpilot reviews, kept in French as written, in the welcome, cart and browse emails.

  3. 03

    Premium means quiet

    Dark layouts, one button per screen, no shouting. “No loud logos. No gimmicks. Just pure performance.”

Up close · The abandoned cart flow

Three emails, three different jobs.

Every email shows the exact pad the shopper left behind, pulled in automatically. What changes is the reason to come back.
