Using your store data to find hidden opportunities

The data every Shopify store creates contains numerous hidden opportunities. Using Repeat Customer Insights you can unlock many opportunities but even then, there's always more analyses that can be done to find more. Analyses I've never thought of or ones that only apply to your specific store. That's why it's...

Customer segment sizing for smaller Shopify stores

Awhile back a Repeat Customer Insights customer and I were chatting about segmenting and their business goals. The discussion brought up pain points that many Shopify stores have so I wanted to share the answers with you. The discussion meandered a bit so I'll re-organize it for you so it...

Find your whales in Shopify: the customers who place large orders

In customer analysis, Whales are the customers who are placing large orders with your store. Their orders are big enough that you probably double-check that the order is legit. You might think you can just sort your customer list by the total spent and that'd be enough, but you'd run...

Comparing your Average Order Value

Your Shopify store's Average Order Value is very personal. It will be different than just about everyone else's, even others in your industry. The more similar you are to your competitors, the closer it'll become. This personal performance of your Average Order Value means you have to use your own...

Identify nursery products so your best customers keep buying

This month I planted five peashrubs. These are large shrubs that make a bunch of small flowers and some edible peas. The flowers aren't the greatest. The peas are supposed to be edible but pretty bad tasting. So why plant them and why plant so many? The benefits of the...

Automatic segments help smaller Shopify stores retain customers

To help RFM work better on small and mid-sized stores, I added Automatic Segments into Repeat Customer Insights a few years ago. They consolidate each pair of RFM scores into a specific segment (like R5F3). Similar segments are then grouped to create the final Automatic Segments (R5F3 becomes the Potential...

Starting repeat purchase analysis in Shopify

I came across a question from a Shopify store the other day: What's the best way to start doing LTV and repeat purchase analysis? How early would you start paying attention to it? I've got 2000 customers so far and curious about seeing repeat purchases and in particular what impacts...
