Brightwave: Turning Abandoned Carts into Revenue

Brightwave: Turning Abandoned Carts into Revenue

With low repeat purchase rates and hundreds of abandoned carts each week, Brightwave needed a retention strategy that could recover lost sales without adding new ad spend.

$420K

Recovered Revenue

31%

Increase in Repeat Purchases

Brightwave, a premium home goods brand, was seeing strong first-order performance but losing customers after their initial purchase. Their email program consisted mainly of generic sale blasts that didn’t address why customers were churning.

We stepped in to redesign their entire post-purchase and abandoned cart experience:

  • Built segmented flows triggered by purchase type and product category

  • Added dynamic product recommendations based on browsing and order history

  • Tested timing variations for cart recovery emails to find the optimal send window

Our testing revealed that customers responded best to personalized product pairings and post-purchase care tips, rather than discount-heavy offers.

Within 90 days:

  • $420K in recovered revenue

  • 31% lift in repeat purchase rate

  • Customer satisfaction scores improved by 18%

The CMO summed it up:
"We went from blasting sales to building relationships — and the revenue followed."
