Step 1: Let’s Get You Set Up on Klaviyo
First things first, if you don’t already have a Klaviyo account, it’s time to sign up! Head over to Klaviyo’s site and create a free account. Once you’re in, you’ll find yourself on the Klaviyo dashboard—your new best friend in the world of email marketing.
Step 2: Time to Connect Your Shopify Store
Here’s where the magic starts. We’re going to link up your Shopify store with Klaviyo so they can start talking to each other.
- Navigate to the Integrations Tab:
- In your Klaviyo dashboard, find the “Integrations” tab on the left-hand side.
- Look for “Shopify” in the list of available integrations.
- Connect Shopify:
- Click on the “Shopify” integration, then hit “Add Integration.” Enter your Shopify store’s URL (e.g., mystore.myshopify.com) and click “Connect to Shopify.”
- Authorize the Integration:
- You’ll be redirected to Shopify, where you’ll be asked to authorize Klaviyo to access your store’s data. This is a crucial step as it allows Klaviyo to pull in data like customer information, order history, and site activity.
- Click “Install App” to complete the connection.
Step 3: Let’s Get Your Data Sync Settings Just Right
Now that Shopify and Klaviyo are best friends, let’s make sure they’re sharing all the right info.
- Check Your Sync Settings:
- Under the Shopify integration settings in Klaviyo, you’ll see options for syncing data like customer profiles, product info, and order data. Make sure these are all turned on.
- Enable Web Tracking:
- This feature lets Klaviyo track what your customers are up to on your site—like which products they’re eyeing. Super useful for crafting personalized emails!
- Sync Historical Data:
- Want to build campaigns based on past customer behavior? Klaviyo can pull in historical data from Shopify. It might take a little time, but it’s worth it.
Step 4: Give Everything a Quick Test Run
Before you start sending out emails, let’s make sure everything’s working perfectly.
- Send a Test Email:
- Create a simple email in Klaviyo and send it to yourself. Check that it lands in your inbox and that any Shopify data, like product recommendations, shows up correctly.
- Review Data Sync:
- Head back to your Klaviyo dashboard and make sure all your Shopify data—like recent orders and customer info—is showing up as it should.
Step 5: Start Crafting Those Automated Flows
With everything set up, it’s time to dive into what Klaviyo does best—automated email flows! Start with the basics like a welcome series, abandoned cart reminders, and post-purchase follow-ups.
