2. Send Seasonal Offers That Drive Real Sales
Old way: Print flyers or post to Facebook.

- Build a segment like “Holiday Buyers 2023”
- Send SMS: “🎄 Holiday Cookie Boxes now available! Tap to reserve yours.”
- Email: include menu, images and countdown
- Add urgency: “Only 30 left” or “Order by Dec 15”
You can retarget no-clicks or upsell recent buyers with Workflow AI.

Auto-tag customers based on purchase type, making it easy to build re-engagement workflows later.
4. Collect Reviews Automatically
After pickup or delivery:
- Send SMS/email via Reviews AI:
“Thanks for choosing [Bakery Name]! Would you leave us a quick review?” - Happy? → Redirect to Google
- Unhappy? → Private feedback form + apology flow
Helps you dominate local SEO in your neighborhood.
5. Build a Bakery Loyalty Engine
Tag VIP customers, use automation to reward them:
- After 5 purchases → Send coupon for free pastry
- Birthday tags → “Enjoy a treat on us!”
- Monthly promos: “Surprise Saturday” SMS campaign
Combine this with social giveaways for new subscribers.
