Hello, my customers buy gifts in my store. For example, a birthday present for their mother.
I want it on the thank you page or in my account, on shopify. They can leave reminders for their daughter's birthday, her anniversary, or whatever. And that on that date an automatic email is sent every year.
How could I generate this?

Hello
Thank you for sharing this question with the Klaviyo community.
You can use a date-triggered flow in Klaviyo in order to send a reminder before a specific date (birthday, anniversary etc.) This article covers how to create the flow, when the flow should start, when the flow should repeat and more. I also recommend reviewing our article on building a birthday flow specifically. This includes a section on including a message before the actual date i.e. in the week leading up to the birthday.
For more information on collecting dates from users, I recommend reviewing the solutions outlined by our friend
I cannot speak to achieving the same functionality on Shopify’s end, however, I strongly recommend using Klaviyo to dispatch these emails because we have a robust system to make date-based emails possible for our users.

I have a database with people who last year bought for a birthday present on a certain date
for example bought for birthday on October 1, 2020
How do I use that database and send them an email on October 1, 2021?

Hi
Thanks for sharing this with us.
If these users are already in Klaviyo with birthdays set, when setting up the trigger for your birthday flow, choose Yearly for “When should this flow repeat”. That way these users will receive the email on the same day, (October 1st, for example) of each year.
If they are not already in Klaviyo, you will want to first import them using a .csv file, and include a column header in the .csv file for birthday. If the birthday field already exists in your Klaviyo account, ensure that when you upload the file, you are mapping it to the existing birthday field. This will prevent a duplicate custom property from being created. Once the import is done and the birthday flow is set-up, live and using “yearly” for “when to repeat”, these users will automatically be pulled into the birthday flow on the same day each year.

I am very angry, I have tried everything and it does not work for me.
So I have the profile (create a list with my email to test)
I did 6 different flows and no mail arrived. I did 1 at 3.30 pm Santiago time, another at 3.30 pm recipient time, another 3.30 pm Argentina time (in case it didn't work), another (3) two days before the anniversary. And nothing works for me !!
What can be?
