About the prebuilt journey

With this prebuilt Attentive journey, you can remind your existing customers to use the coupon codes they received after successfully referring a friend to your brand. This helps increase repeat purchase rates by prompting referrers to redeem their reward. This does not replace the initial reward email that Mention Me sends to the customer upon a successful referral. This journey is an additional touchpoint to boost re-engagement.

Basic workflow

  1. A customer receives a coupon via SMS after referring a friend.
  2. If they haven’t made a purchase, another SMS will remind them of their coupon code.
Reminders are sent at strategic intervals to encourage redemption.
