Where they were.

A Colorado edibles brand with 80k subscribers on Mailchimp (about to be deleted for ToS violations) and an SMS list on a consumer tool that was getting blocked by Verizon and T-Mobile. Lifecycle flows were nonexistent. No segmentation. Broadcast-only.

The work.

Platform migration

Full migration off Mailchimp onto Alpine IQ. SMS moved to cannabis-compliant carrier with 10DLC registration.

Lifecycle flow build

Welcome, browse-abandon, cart-abandon, winback, birthday, VIP, referral. All revenue-attributed.

Segmentation

RFM tiers, category affinity, store-level geo, strain preference. Every send personalized.

Deliverability

SPF/DKIM/DMARC correctly set, warm-up sequence, TCPA-compliant SMS workflow.

What changed.

Email + SMS attributed revenue: from under 8% to 34% of total in 6 months. Inbox placement rate: 96% (industry average for cannabis: 62%). Zero carrier suspensions over 18 months.
