Coming soon to a Phoenix Cart near you!!
Phoenix Cart’s Queued E-mails is a powerful feature, unique to Phoenix Cart, that automates customer engagement effortlessly.
This system adds preconfigured e-mails to a queue, schedules a send date and sends them, all automatically!
E-mails and schedules are based on customer actions — or inactions — requiring no ongoing input from the store owner.
Once set up, it’s virtually 'Set & Forget,' giving you seamless automation and saving valuable time while keeping full control in your hands.

See the dropdown menu showing Queue and Templates.

The e-mail will be automatically scheduled to send 10 days after registration if the customer does not check out during that time.
It will be automatically be removed from the Outgoing Queue when it is automatically sent or if the customer checks out during that time.
