Playbooks
- Run Black Friday Without Losing Subscribers
Keep the subscription the better deal in a sitewide sale, prepare cancel offers and emails early, and onboard sale sign-ups faster. A Shopify playbook.
- Turn One-Time Buyers into Subscribers on Shopify
Offer the subscription where customers already buy, on the product page, in the cart and at checkout, then follow up by email. What Zubs covers.
- Order Reminder Emails That Keep Subscribers
Use the email before each subscription order to restate the value, preview what's coming and offer a skip or new date instead of a surprise charge.
- What It Takes to Run Subscriptions That Last
Subscriptions last when customers can adjust them, are rewarded for staying and get an offer before they cancel. What that takes, and how Zubs helps.
- Win Back Cancelled Subscribers with Klaviyo
Build a timed win-back flow for cancelled subscribers from Zubs events, Klaviyo segments and an offer to subscribe again.
