Email & SMS Retention

Retention that turns buyers into repeat revenue.

We build and manage email and SMS programs that lift repeat purchase rate and lifetime value - flows, campaigns, and list health aligned to the same growth plan as your ads.

✓ Flows that recover revenue on autopilot

✓ Repeat purchase rate and LTV, not just opens

✓ Email and SMS run by senior operators

How it works

How we run retention

Retention compounds when it's run like a system - the right flows, a real calendar, and steady testing instead of the occasional blast.

1

Audit + strategy

We review your flows, list health, and calendar to find where revenue is leaking - then map a plan tied to LTV and repeat rate.

2

Build + launch

We build the core lifecycle flows and a real campaign calendar in your email and SMS platforms, wired to clean segments.

3

Optimize + scale

We test subject lines, offers, timing, and segments regularly - and grow the owned-revenue share month over month.

What's included

Owned channels that actually compound

Everything required to run email and SMS at a high standard - strategy, flows, campaigns, list health, and reporting tied to revenue.

1

Strategy + priorities

We align retention to your margins and goals so flows and campaigns focus on repeat revenue, not vanity opens.

2

Lifecycle flows

Welcome, abandonment, post-purchase, and winback - the automations that quietly drive 30 to 50% of email revenue.

3

Campaigns + calendar

A planned monthly calendar of email and SMS mapped to promotions, launches, and seasonality - never last-minute.

4

List health + deliverability

Segmentation, sunset flows, and hygiene so you reach the inbox and protect sender reputation as the list scales.

5

Tracking + reporting

We report owned-revenue share, repeat purchase rate, and LTV plainly - tied to blended MER, not siloed opens and clicks.

6

One plan with your ads

Retention built around the same numbers your paid team runs on, so acquisition and lifecycle pull in the same direction.

Why Coast Summit

What makes us different

Senior-led lifecycle

The senior strategist doing the work owns your flows and calendar - not a junior team learning on your list.

A disciplined testing cadence

We treat retention like a testing system. Every week, subject lines, offers, timing, or segments are being improved.

Reporting tied to outcomes

We connect email and SMS to repeat rate, LTV, and blended MER - the numbers that show retention is actually working.
