Flow audit and map
A ranked list of what's broken or missing, then a flow map you approve before we build.
The Problem
Your Flows Fire, but Nobody Has Checked What They Send
It shows up a few months after Klaviyo goes in. The default flows run, their revenue stays flat, and nobody on your team has time to find out why.
01 · Wrong discounts
A welcome discount reaches buyers who already paid full price.
Flows start and stop on Placed Order, so buyers skip the wrong messages.
02 · Silent browse
Browse abandonment doesn't fire because site tracking is off.
Site tracking gets switched on through Klaviyo's Shopify app embed.
03 · Late reminders
Customers who already ordered still get checkout reminders.
Every trigger and filter gets checked against your Shopify data.
04 · Missing events
Your subscription app renews orders, and Klaviyo hears nothing.
Loyalty, subscription, and returns events reach Klaviyo through apps or its Events API.
You installed Klaviyo, turned on the default welcome flow, and moved on. Now a first-time buyer gets a welcome discount after already paying full price. Browse abandonment doesn't fire, because nobody enabled Klaviyo's site tracking. A shopper who ordered this morning still gets the checkout reminder, since the flow filter watches the wrong event. And when your subscription app renews an order, Klaviyo hears nothing.
We start with a flow audit: every trigger, filter, and branch checked against your Shopify data. Then we rebuild the Klaviyo email marketing flows that earn most, starting with welcome, browse, and checkout, and map the rest around your buying cycle. Your other apps send events that start their own flows. Every trigger is tested with real orders, so nothing fires on guesswork.
Placed Order as the trigger
Flows start and stop on Placed Order, the event Klaviyo recommends, so buyers skip reminders.
Site tracking switched on
Browse flows need Viewed Product, which only tracks once Klaviyo's Shopify app embed is on.
Your apps talk to Klaviyo
Loyalty, subscription, and returns events arrive through app integrations or Klaviyo's Events API.
Our Klaviyo Expert Flow Setup Process
From Flow Audit to Live Flows in Five Clear Steps
You see the audit, flow map, and every email draft before launch. Then you approve tests proving each trigger fires correctly.
We review your flows, triggers, filters, and Shopify connection, including site tracking and consent settings. You get a short audit that ranks what's broken or missing by revenue, whether you hire us or not.

What Our Clients Say
What Clients Say After Launch
Feedback from ecommerce teams we have built for.
We had a different kind of problem. People were visiting the store, adding products to their carts, and then disappearing before they finished the order. We had tried a few apps and made changes here and there, but nothing really seemed to solve the bigger issue. The team went through the shopping experience with us and pointed out things we hadn't really noticed ourselves. They cleaned up the cart and checkout flow, made the mobile experience much smoother, and helped us make the store feel easier to shop. I’m not going to pretend we fixed everything overnight, but it finally feels like the store is helping the sale instead of getting in the way of it.
The mobile experience is probably my favourite part of the new site. We had spent a lot of time making sure the desktop version looked right, and the team kept pushing us to think about how everything would actually feel on a phone too. They were right. The navigation is clean, the interactions feel natural, and everything we’ve tested so far works exactly as it should. They also went through the links, forms, integrations, and other details more than once before launch, which I really appreciated. And even after going live, we could still reach out when something came up. The whole process felt friendly, organised, and surprisingly straightforward.
We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Work Culture
Why Store Owners Bring Us Their Flows
A flow only works when its trigger, timing, and data are right, so as your Klaviyo consultant we check all three before launch.
Every trigger tested
We fire every trigger with test orders before a flow goes live. You see screenshots of each path, including refunds.
Placed Order, not guesses
Flows start and filter on Placed Order, as Klaviyo recommends. No buyer gets a reminder for a checkout they already finished.
Short flows with one job
Each email in a flow has one job: welcome, remind, thank, or bring back. Short flows are easier for your team to test and maintain.
Texts respect quiet hours
SMS steps only reach subscribers who opted in, and Klaviyo's quiet hours hold texts overnight by default. Your customers don't get reminders at 2 a.m.
Fixed quote after the audit
You get a fixed price once the audit shows what your account needs. If small fixes will do, we'll say so before you pay for a rebuild.
Your account, your flows
Everything we build lives in your Klaviyo account, documented for your team. You can change or pause any flow without us.

Good fit
Stores running default Klaviyo flows
You switched on Klaviyo's default welcome and cart flows months ago, and nobody has checked what they send or earn since.
Brands ready to hire a specialist
You've decided to hire Klaviyo expert help rather than learn flow logic yourself, and you want a fixed price first.
Stores with apps Klaviyo ignores
Your loyalty, subscription, or returns app holds useful events, but none of them start a flow in Klaviyo yet.
Brands adding SMS
You want texts and emails triggered by the same events, without building two separate systems or texting at night.
Agencies needing flow builders
Your agency sells retention to Shopify clients and needs a white-label Klaviyo consultant to build and test flows under your brand.
Not a fit
Store connection first
Klaviyo isn't connected to your store yet, or you need forms and sender setup first. Our Klaviyo Shopify Integration service covers that groundwork.
Post-purchase emails only
You only need post-purchase emails like thank-you, shipping, and reorder reminders. Our Post-Purchase Email Automation service is the narrower option.
Monthly campaigns wanted
You want campaigns planned, written, and sent every month, not a one-time build. Our monthly Klaviyo management service handles that.
New, small list
Your list is new and small, or your budget is under $800. Klaviyo's built-in templates are the better start, and we'll say so before we quote.

Most stores need 5 core flows: welcome, browse abandonment, checkout abandonment, win-back, and post-purchase. Welcome and browse catch new visitors, checkout recovers near-misses, and the last two bring buyers back. Add replenishment for consumables, and a sunset flow so inactive subscribers stop hurting deliverability.
Klaviyo flow setup starts at $800 for a free audit plus welcome, browse, and checkout flows. The $1,750 plan adds lifecycle flows and segments, and custom event flows with SMS start at $3,500. You get a fixed price after the audit, so your quote matches what the account needs.
A full Klaviyo flow build takes 3 to 6 weeks, depending on how many flows and custom events you need. Core flows alone launch within 1 to 2 weeks. The audit and flow map take the first week, and testing every trigger takes 3 to 5 days before launch.
Yes, we audit your existing flows first and rebuild only what's broken or underperforming. The free audit checks triggers, filters, timing, and exit conditions, then ranks each fix by revenue. Some flows only need small repairs, so you pay to rebuild just the ones that need it.
Your flows use the events Shopify syncs to Klaviyo, like Checkout Started, Placed Order, and Fulfilled Order, plus product details for dynamic blocks. We trigger on Placed Order, as Klaviyo recommends, because Ordered Product syncs seconds later. Only fully refunded orders reach Klaviyo, so partial refunds need their own rule.
Yes, Klaviyo can start a flow from any event it receives. Many of these apps send events through their Klaviyo integrations, and anything missing can be posted through Klaviyo's Events API. We confirm each event's name and properties first, then build flows like tier upgrades and renewal reminders.
We segment by order count and the days since each customer's last order. Repeat-purchase flows aim for second orders at the gap your buyers show, and win-back starts once a customer passes that gap. With enough data, Klaviyo's expected date of next order helps time it per customer.
Yes, SMS steps can sit inside the same flows as your emails. Texts only go to subscribers with SMS consent, and Klaviyo's default quiet hours hold texts between 8 p.m. and 11 a.m. We text only high-intent moments, like checkout reminders, so SMS costs stay low.
Choose expert help for a one-time build or rebuild, then run the flows yourself. A monthly agency suits stores that also want campaigns planned and sent, segments refreshed, and deliverability watched. You can start with a flow build and add our Klaviyo Agency for Shopify Stores service later.
Every Klaviyo flow build includes 30, 60, or 90 days of support, set by plan. During that window we track flow revenue and deliverability, fix anything that misfires at no charge, and adjust timing after the first results. Your team keeps the written documentation for later edits.
