The Problem:

Magical Product, But Missing Lifecycle Magic

Despite a devoted following, OwlCrate was missing foundational email systems to fully monetize its subscriber base. Their automation was minimal, and they lacked the flows necessary to boost new sign-ups, prevent churn, and reactivate lapsed customers.

Key Challenges

No structured lifecycle automation for subscribers and churn prevention
High drop-off rate after initial box deliveries
Low visibility into subscriber behavior and segmentation
Missed opportunities for upsells, referrals, and loyalty-building

The Strategy:

Storybook Strategy Meets Smart Automation

We designed a full-funnel email system that brought the magic of OwlCrate into the inbox. With strategic automations, personalized messaging, and data-driven segmentation, we helped them enchant customers, boost retention, and grow subscriptions at scale.

Automated Flows Built for Subscription Growth
Welcome, checkout abandonment, pre-renewal reminders, churn-prevention flows, and surprise-and-delight campaigns.
Behavior-Based Segmentation
Differentiated messaging for new sign-ups, long-term subscribers, at-risk churners, and past customers to drive engagement at every stage.
Community-Driven Content Strategy
Monthly reveals, sneak peeks, loyalty incentives, and behind-the-scenes content to increase emotional connection and monthly renewal intent.

The Execution:
