A women’s boutique that started as one shop in Northeast Alabama began sending its campaigns to segments built from AI predictions: who is due to buy again, who spends the most. Campaign revenue rose 53.1% in six months, and the boutique had its best Black Friday ever.

The Willow Tree Boutique opened in 1992 as a single women’s clothing shop in Northeast Alabama. It now has several storefronts, an online shop launched in 2019 and a free live-selling app, and a loyal email list with plenty of data on how each subscriber shops. Segmenting by engagement was easy. Segmenting by how much and how often people bought was not. Price-conscious shoppers were getting emails about pieces far outside their budget, and occasional shoppers were getting more messages than they wanted. ## What they did. Email campaigns · AI predictive analytics · Predictive segments Started with one predictive segmentIn June 2023 the boutique began using [Klaviyo’s AI predictive analytics](https://www.klaviyo.com/solutions/ai). The first segment was customers whose predicted next order date fell within 30 days either side of the send.Premium pieces to proven spendersCampaigns for higher-priced clothing went to [segments](https://www.klaviyo.com/features/segmentation) of customers with a predicted lifetime value over $500 or an average order over $150.Wider reach without blastingPredictive segments were combined with the usual engaged segments, so campaigns reached more people without feeling like spam.A wider net for the holidaysFor Q4 2023 the purchase-frequency rule widened from customers who order less than 30 days apart to less than 60 days, which helped deliver the boutique’s highest-revenue Black Friday and Cyber Monday ever. ## Why it worked. Our read on the decisions behind the numbers, and what any business can take from them. Timing beats volumeReaching a shopper when she is due to buy again makes one email do the work of five.Price matched to the personSending premium pieces only to people who buy at that level lifts sales and stops putting off everyone else.Fewer unwanted emailsOccasional shoppers hear from the boutique less often, which keeps them subscribed and listening for the messages that matter.The data was already thereThe predictions came from purchase history the boutique already had, so the gain came from using its data, not from buying more traffic. ## How we would run this play for your business.
