What is predictive analytics?

It predicts when a customer is likely to make their next purchase. It does this by looking at their past and present purchases and engagement. This feature helps us to better target our customers.

Therefore, utilize predictive analytics to cultivate your customers by using the expected next order flow in Klaviyo.

Conditions:

→You must have at least 500 customers that have previously placed an order, i.e people who have actually made an order and bought from your business and not just customers.

→You have an ecommerce integration (e.g. Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento) or use our API to send placed orders.

How predicted gender is calculated?

The first name along with census data is used by Klaviyo’s gender prediction algorithm to predict a customer’s gender to be likely male, likely female, or uncertain. Since predicted gender is not always accurate, it is recommended to obtain this information as a custom property to have more precise gender information.

Order line:

The order timeline is also visible in the Klaviyo Predictive Analysis section of a profile. Each line on the timeline represents an individual order, the amount and date of the order can be viewed by hovering over each tick as shown in the picture below.
Ticks with a diamond represent the next expected order date for a customer. In the image below, the customer was expected to make an order on November 29th, 2023.

Expected next order flow set up:

There are 2 methods to set up this flow:
1] Via segmentation
2] Via date property

Via segmentation:

To make segment , you have to fulfill the conditions as mentioned above, otherwise you would not be able to make segment and flow.

Conditions:

Properties about someone > expected date of next order > in the next 14 days

PS: Again, if you did not follow the prerequisite mentioned above, ”expected date of next order” OPTION will not appear.
You can get idea from the below image that we cannot find EXPECTED DATE OF NEXT ORDER option even after searching.

1st Email:

Subject Line: Is It Time to Reorder

First, thank them for their previous order with your brand and then request their next order. Let them know that you have noticed they are about to place another order in the next few days. You can send the first email with a discount or without, or you could A/B test the two options.

Time Delay:

Wait until persons’ Expected Date Of Next Order

So in the second email, remind them of the special offer and create urgency and scarcity in your messaging. You can also send a reminder email [3rd Email ] to let them know that the offer is ending soon, so hurry up and save your money.
