Cold email sequence critique (DTC apparel ecom, service offer)
Hey guys, just finished a copy sequence, which I'm planning to launch soon, but I'd love a sharp feedback from anyone actively running cold email for agencies or selling services in ecom first. ICP: DTC Apparel ecommerce brands in the $1-$10M ARR range using shopify What I'm selling: Email lifecycle system for DTC apparel (capture - welcome - flows - campaigns) Email 1 sl: quick question about {{CompanyName}}βs first visit {{FirstName}}, Quick q: {{observation}} (e.g. βon {{CompanyName}}, the first thing I see is an email capture that doesnβt give first-time visitors a clear reason to opt in.β) Is that intentional for first-time visitors? {{accountSignature}} Email 2 sl: first-visit capture vs paid retargeting {{FirstName}}, Reason Iβm asking: for apparel, the first session is usually the cheapest moment to turn paid visits into owned audience. If visitors leave without opting in, youβre mostly relying on retargeting (more spend) for a second shot. Are you optimizing more for brand-clean UX, or higher first-visit capture at the moment? {{accountSignature}} Email 3 sl: 15β25% of first-time visitors opt in {{FirstName}}, We helped one apparel brand tighten first-visit capture, pushing popup signups into the ~15β25 percent range. Over the same window, email-attributed revenue stayed consistently strong month to month (Klaviyo tracking), and total monthly revenue grew from ~5.8k usd to ~21.1k usd across 4 months. Want me to send a 2-min Loom showing the 3 changes? {{accountSignature}} Email 4 sl: paying twice for the same visitor {{FirstName}}, If youβre happy with current capture, ignore me. When visitors leave without opting in, youβre paying to acquire that attention again. Thatβs why {{CompanyName}} stood out when I checked the first-visit experience. If itβs not a priority at the moment, totally fine. If it is, I can send a quick teardown + the exact popup/welcome setup weβd test first. {{accountSignature}}
