Hi. I’m having issues with an email flow where the trigger is customer added to a segment list. 

we have a recycling drive and therefore I want to customers once of the items have been returned from recycling to do a separate mailing list to receive a discount code to purchase items with us. 

The best way to do, this would be to create a flow where the code could be followed up with reminders to purchase before code expiry. I am in a static code, not a dynamic code when I manually add customers to this list, they are not captured in the flow. 

i gratefully appreciate any help in resolving this issue.

 

thanks carrie

Hi Carrie,

Thank you for reaching out. I understand the importance of optimizing your email flow for the recycling drive. To ensure customers added manually to the list are captured in the flow, consider transitioning from a static code to a dynamic one. This way, your email flow can seamlessly follow up with reminders before the code expiry, enhancing customer engagement. If you need assistance with implementing this change or have any further questions, feel free to reach out.

Best regards.

Okay, the additional context you provide is very useful. I understand the challenge you're currently facing as regards to this cos I've been victim of that before. To troubleshoot this, I’d love to re commend a Klaviyo Expert regarding this, this person helped me to fix mine?

Hi @carriedavies - welcome to the community!

 

If you could provide a screenshot of your flow trigger, and also a screenshot of your trigger segment’s definition, that will help us troubleshoot what’s causing the error.

 

Warmly,

Gabrielle

Hey @carriedavies 

Thanks for the image! It definitely will help.

The first thing I notice is that this a List triggered flow. As a reminder, list triggered flows only allow a profile to move through them 1 time. So if any profile has already been through it, they will not be allowed to enter the flow again. With that being said, how are your profiles entering this list? Lists are usually generated through a signup form or CSV file upload. If you are using a CSV file, can you share how the file is formatted? This is usually the part where things go awry. 

If you have a custom setup that automatically creates a metric (ie returned item for recycling) in Klaviyo, I would actually suggest using a metric triggered flow. This will allow a customer to enter the flow every time they return an item for recycling automatically. You can clone the flow and reset the trigger to a metric trigger without loosing all your hard work. 

Let me know how you have the list setup or if there is a metric being generated, and I can be more specific on setup to make sure your customers are entering the flow properly!
