Common questions about multi-channel retail communication
Drop Cowboy integrates with your e-commerce platform (Shopify, WooCommerce, etc.) and automatically sends voice and SMS messages to customers who abandon carts. Typical sequence: 1 hour after abandonment (SMS with cart link + discount), 24 hours later (ringless voicemail with personalized message), 72 hours later (final SMS with expiring discount). Include customer name, products left in cart, and unique discount codes. Most stores recover 15-25% of abandoned carts.
Send three messages at strategic intervals: 1 hour after abandonment (immediate SMS reminder while shopping intent is fresh), 24 hours later (ringless voicemail or SMS with added incentive), and 72 hours later (final message with expiring discount code). This three-touch sequence balances urgency with non-intrusiveness. Test different timing to optimize for your audience.
Best practice: First message at 1 hour has no discount (simple reminder). Second message at 24 hours includes 10-15% discount code. Third message at 72 hours has expiring discount (24-48 hour deadline). This prevents training customers to abandon carts for discounts while still recovering price-sensitive shoppers. A/B test discount strategies for your store.
Drop Cowboy integrates with Shopify via app installation or direct API connection. Install the Drop Cowboy app from Shopify App Store, authorize access to your store, configure abandoned cart trigger settings, create message templates with product merge fields, and enable campaigns. Setup takes 15-30 minutes. Automatically syncs customer data, cart contents, and order status.
Yes. Automate shipping confirmations, out-for-delivery alerts, and delivery confirmations. Integrate with your fulfillment system (ShipStation, Shippo, etc.) or e-commerce platform to trigger notifications automatically. Include tracking links, expected delivery dates, and carrier information. Shipping notifications reduce 'where's my order?' support tickets by 40-50%.
Obtain express written consent before sending ringless voicemail or SMS marketing messages. Work with your legal counsel to develop appropriate opt-in language for checkout or account creation that complies with TCPA requirements for your specific business model. Maintain consent records and honor opt-out requests immediately. Include opt-out instructions in every message. Drop Cowboy provides automatic suppression list management and opt-out handling.
Yes. Segment customers by purchase history, order value, product categories, geographic location, engagement level, or custom fields. Send VIP customers exclusive offers, target lapsed customers with win-back campaigns, or announce local store events to nearby customers. Import customer segments from your CRM or e-commerce platform via CSV or API.
Use merge fields to dynamically insert customer name, products in cart, cart total, product categories, past purchase history, and unique discount codes. Example: 'Hi {{FirstName}}, you left {{ProductName}} in your cart. Save {{DiscountPercent}}% with code {{DiscountCode}}.' Drop Cowboy syncs customer data from your e-commerce platform automatically.
Drop Cowboy offers competitive volume-based pricing for e-commerce businesses. Costs include platform access and per-message fees that scale with usage. For stores sending thousands of cart recovery messages monthly, most see 5-20x ROI from recovered carts alone. Contact our sales team for pricing specific to your store size and message volume.
