πŸ‘€ Our recommendation: This flow is typically sent 15–30 days after the purchase, depending on the type of products you sell.


Step 3️⃣: Send an initial message to gather customer feedback

This message allows you to ask for your customer’s feedback on their order experience. Based on their response, you can offer them a tailored scenario.
