Nice work! Your VIP customers will now get a little extra love when products are restocked.

๐ŸŒŸ Pro Tip:

  • Choose a clear spending threshold to define who qualifies as a VIP.
  • Use unique discount codes to avoid sharing and better track performance.
  • Highlight exclusivity in your VIP email (e.g. โ€œVIP-only offerโ€) to increase urgency.
  • Keep the standard email simple to avoid over-discounting non-VIP customers.
