Key discussion points
- Which product are you seeing the most demand growth for, and why?
- Let’s explore the SMS Bump product, as investment in SMS has definitely grown: what does your SMS flow builder let people do, how are merchants using it in the wild?
- What are the integration requirements with the ecom platform or other data sources to enable segmentation and behavioural flows?
- How does the mobile checkout click to buy actually work, for example for a retailer with an ecom store that has an existing payment gateway like Stripe or Adyen?
- Retailers want insights to drive decision making, how are customers using your real-time reporting to react to opportunities / fix issues?
- You recently added Subscriptions product for Shopify customers; why this addition, as the Shopify subscription space already has well established players like Recharge?
- How well integrated is Subscriptions with the other products like SMS, Email & Loyalty, and what are the plans for this product?
- How does your Loyalty engine integrate with eCRM tools like Klaviyo or ESPs like Mailchimp to automate loyalty campaigns and triggered notifications e.g. when someone moves up a tier based on spend?
- Does Loyalty support advanced rewards like free Gift with purchase and non-spend related rewards e.g. accrue points for posting UGC, leaving reviews etc.?
- I know there used to be a single license fee for everything, which worked out expensive if you only wanted one product; how does the licensing model now work across the multiple products and what’s the entry point for someone wanting to start with a single product?
- You’ve also added Product Bundles: how do these work and is there a pricing incentive to invest in a bundle?
- Where is the Yotpo roadmap headed in 2023 and why?
