💬 Harry Willis

On Linkedin you'd probably call this...

'An unplugged in-person podcast, fireside chat'

Every month or so, a friend and I will go to the view point in Lisbon for sunrise. Just to chat for an hour. With coffee (Cups Full Coffee Bags). Before the working week. 

He's also called Harry. We call it Harry's coffee club ™️

Other names are available if you're not called Harry. 

Anyone else got some wholesome pre-work rituals going?

Partnerships and Business Development @ Relay Commerce (Smartrr, Relo & Peel Insights)

I've worked with subscription brands for 5+ years now. 

Whether they're using incumbent subscriptions tech, or shiny new upstarts, the focus areas of these platforms are always the same.

They essentially all focus on the subscriber experience, payments and making sure subscribers don't churn, whilst cross selling / increasing AOV. 

But what about before that? What about those customers who have purchased from you once or twice, but haven't become a subscriber yet? That's where the untapped growth potential is. 

Meet Smartrr Lifecycle, a new feature that analyses purchase behaviour to detect subscription intent, then automatically triggers a Klaviyo or Attentive flow to convert them.

A customer buys once → Lifecycle detects intent → A subscription workflow triggers → They convert.

Three automated loops:
 • Conversion
 • Repeat purchases
 • Cross-sell

One system.

ELEAT Founder Insights

CPG / Subscription ecommerce managers...

3rd party bundles, integrated into subscriptions. Everyone's nightmare right? I hear it time and time again in research calls I've had with leading brands. 

That's why we bought native bundle building and subscription tech under one roof with Smartrr. Here's a best practice snapshot, showing how it all works for Bravus Brewing Company:
Customers can easily modify their subscriptions and their build-a-box in the customer account portal, changing the products in their bundles to suit their preferences.

☕ What does it take to stand out in a crowded coffee market?

This morning's podcast listening is close to home as my sister Katherine Willis(!) is hosted by Debbie Wheeler to discuss Cups Full Coffee Bags, to unpack how small, smart innovations and a focus on community can make all the difference when building a challenger brand. 

Worth a listen!

If loyalty and subscriptions are two of your biggest retention channels, why are they siloed in two separate apps? Consolidating those into one platform saves on monthly costs, and gives customers a more unified experience. 

Interested how it look? Check out this Smartrr best practice from LĒVO👇

Easy loyalty in the customer account portal: LĒVO provides a user-friendly loyalty experience within the customer account portal. This includes a loyalty tier tracker, allowing customers to see their progress towards the next tier, and a clear display of redeemable rewards.
