Out of all the (many!) things\u00a0 e-commerce owners have to think about, discounts in email flows might not make the top of the list. But if it\u2019s not something you ever gave much thought to, here\u2019s why you might want to start. This blog post will touch base on when and how you should offer discounts in Flow emails and a few sample email templates for discount offers.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you understand how to properly use flow discounts, it can help bring in that extra $$ and pull in all those \u2018low hanging fruits\u2019. You not only\u00a0 hook your potential customer right at the moment they signed up for your website through pop-ups, but it gives you the opportunity to maintain loyalty from your existing customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, this is above and beyond regular sales and promos. This is because email flows are not your typical weekly email campaigns or marketing holidays promotions\u2014they\u2019re a triggered response to your customer\u2019s action.

So quickly, let\u2019s do a run-through of the types of flows and which discount works (or doesn\u2019t work) with each one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>1. Welcome Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So now you have visitors on your website through ads or organic means and a few seconds of hanging around your website, they are greeted by a popup box asking for their email address.What kind of offer will intrigue them enough to pull the trigger?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It depends. If your product is\u00a0 unique and well-advertised with a lot of positive reviews, and if it\u2019s a consumable product that your customers must buy on a regular basis, you have the option to give them a small (and by small we mean 5 &#8211; 10%) discount for signing up. If not, a slightly larger discount (10 &#8211; 15%) might work well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A welcome discount flow email is triggered after a website visitor punches in their email into the email popup box that promises a welcome discount.<\/p>\n<p>So the order is Customer punches in email in popup &gt;&gt; System triggers welcome email &gt;&gt; follow up welcome email<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an example of a Welcome Flow sequence from website to the inbox<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7348 size-full aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email.jpg\" alt=\"welcome flow sequence email\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7348 size-full aligncenter lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email.jpg\" alt=\"welcome flow sequence email\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/welcome-flow-sequence-email-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basically, compared to businesses that have to compete with a larger pool of the same type of service and products, a strong brand would require little to no discount as the product is something your customer most likely uses regularly and will buy anyway.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In place or alongside a discount, you can also provide valuable content that complements the products in your flow emails and makes your customer feel like they\u2019re being treated to extra value from your brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7298 size-full lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM.png\" alt=\"subscribers community email growth list hack\" width=\"657\" height=\"614\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM.png 657w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM-300x280.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 657px) 100vw, 657px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7298 size-full lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM.png\" alt=\"subscribers community email growth list hack\" width=\"657\" height=\"614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM.png 657w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot-2021-04-19-at-10.43.11-PM-300x280.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 657px) 100vw, 657px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Add To Cart, Browse Abandonment, and Cart Abandonment Email Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yay! They\u2019re looking at your products and reading your product descriptions. Things seem to be going well, but right in the middle of your sales pitch\u2026 your customer goes MIA. Who knows why\u2014maybe they decided to do some research on their own, maybe they got distracted, or maybe their cat spilled leftover lasagna all over their keyboard. The reason doesn\u2019t really matter. What matters is they didn\u2019t follow through with their purchase.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, every lead is a potential goldmine and needs to be treated as one. Naturally then, if we lose them, we pursue them. For customers who simply window-shopped, we can send a Browse Abandonment email with the items they viewed. For those that added to their cart but didn\u2019t checkout, they\u2019ll receive Add to Cart emails. And for those that made it to checkout but never completed payment, they\u2019re added to the Cart Abandonment flow and sent emails like these.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each of these emails are usually sent to customers very shortly after they\u2019ve left the website in order to jump on their need to buy in the moment. And of course, including a small incentive (like a discount) to push them into making the final decision can do wonders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7347 size-large lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-394x1024.png\" alt=\"Cart Abandonment flow email Discounts\" width=\"394\" height=\"1024\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-394x1024.png 394w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-115x300.png 115w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-768x1997.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-591x1536.png 591w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1.png 781w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 394px) 100vw, 394px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7347 size-large lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-394x1024.png\" alt=\"Cart Abandonment flow email Discounts\" width=\"394\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-394x1024.png 394w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-115x300.png 115w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-768x1997.png 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1-591x1536.png 591w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com9-1.png 781w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 394px) 100vw, 394px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if it\u2019s more in line with your business to maintain &#8220;discount scarcity&#8221; and instead promote the uniqueness of your brand, you may not have to use a discount at all. Either that, or you can wait to offer a discount until the end of your flows to make sure your customers don\u2019t expect discounts too often from your store. In some cases, if your brand has loyal supporters and using your product somehow elevates their social status or gives them something they can be proud of, the discount may actually reduce the perceived value of your product in your customers\u2019 eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7350 size-large lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-388x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"388\" height=\"1024\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-388x1024.png 388w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-114x300.png 114w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-582x1536.png 582w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828.png 765w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 388px) 100vw, 388px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7350 size-large lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-388x1024.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"388\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-388x1024.png 388w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-114x300.png 114w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828-582x1536.png 582w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Screenshot_2021-04-21-https-www-klaviyo-com2-1-e1619205360828.png 765w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 388px) 100vw, 388px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Post-Purchase Flow Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They\u2019ve bought from you, which means they\u2019ve trusted you and your brand! Now they\u2019ll be receiving follow up emails of their delivery status, and maybe content on how they can maximise the potential of the items they\u2019ve just bought. In this case, the goal now is to turn them into a repeat customer, and a discount can go a long way with this.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are 2 ways you can position your discounts\u2014either you can offer it immediately in your thank-you email, which would work if they\u2019re already a repeat\u00a0 buyer, or you can delay the discount until your later emails, waiting until they\u2019ve had time to receive your products.

Subscription Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes your customer doesn\u2019t just come back to buy more, they order in bulk. It\u2019s great to have a fan\u2014and it also means it\u2019d be a good time to come up with a subscription package that truly makes them feel appreciated. A subscription package is usually already a discount on its own, with some price shaved off if they buy it in a certain quantity.\u00a0 But having multiple subscription packages to decide from (human beings like to have the freedom of choice) can attract them to purchase more.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On top of that, you can throw in an extra discount if they purchased it through email, as a special treat for subscribing to your email list. In the long term, making sure they feel appreciated will help them remain in your email list and encourage them to promote your brand by word of mouth (the most expensive and priceless type of marketing).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>When You Should Definitely Offer a Discount In Email Flow<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>1. Early Birds discounts for big marketing celebrations<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make those discounts worth it! An Early Bird discount strategy is useful to offer to your VIP customers (well, all of your customers are VIPs). It basically gives them a little inside access, helping them feel special through exclusive offers, which is why the best time to use an Early Bird discounts is when you\u2019re willing to offer a bigger discount than what you\u2019d usually offer for your store. (We would recommend using an early bird discount for Black Friday sale, for example.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The feeling of exclusivity and scarcity, not to mention the excitement that builds before the discount is released, has been proven to make Early Bird discounts more valuable than other discounts offered in a 2 day campaign.

With time, when you send the next Early Bird discount announcement, you can get more people who previously have missed out on the Early Bird discount to make it a point to not miss it again.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>2. Re-Engagement Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Oops! Some of the customers in your list haven\u2019t been opening their emails, yet they haven\u2019t unsubscribed either. Instead of assuming they\u2019ll never be interested, offer them an enticing discount in your re-engagement flow. In this flow, though the discount must be attractive, the primary focus is the subject line\u2014which should pull in the interest of those who haven\u2019t been paying attention to your store\u2019s emails for a long while. Of course, while the focus isn\u2019t necessarily on the discount, a tempting\u00a0 subject line probably will include the value of the discount itself. Here&#8217;s 2 &#8220;re-engagement&#8221; flow emails from West Elm, using the classic &#8220;Miss You&#8221; hook, one with and the other email without a discount hook. Both were sent within 2 days of each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7352 size-large lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1024x717.jpg\" alt=\"reengagement flow email discount\" width=\"800\" height=\"560\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1024x717.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-768x538.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1536x1075.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7352 size-large lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1024x717.jpg\" alt=\"reengagement flow email discount\" width=\"800\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1024x717.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-768x538.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount-1536x1075.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.hustlermarketing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/reengagement-flow-email-discount.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. Win-Back Discounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last time they purchased anything from you was more than 30 days before, and you haven\u2019t heard from them again. At the same time, they\u2019ve been opening and (hopefully) reading your email\u2014so they\u2019re pretty much an engaged customer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are they losing interest in your product? Then you need to remind them of its unique value\u00a0 by giving them a rich discount to bring them back to the good feeling they had when the purchased your product for the first time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So.. Should you be generous with your discounts?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It really depends on your business direction. Discounts are expected from nearly any online store, and users actively seek discounts on comparable products just to save those few dollars.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, brands with strong value and quality products may get away with offering\u00a0 fewer discounts, or none at all if the customer base is primarily invested in the brand rather than getting the most bang for their buck.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But as far as what works for your business? Every store is unique.
