Swipe My Strategy: The Exact Klaviyo Segments I Use to Print Revenue

You’re Leaving Money on the Table (And You Don’t Even Know It)

You’ve got a list. You’ve got sales. But your emails? Meh. Some weeks, they hit. Most weeks... tumbleweed.

Your emails aren’t converting because your segments aren’t right.

You’re sending emails to everyone, hoping for clicks. It’s not working. It never does.

Let me show you the exact revenue-driving segments I use inside client accounts (and The Profitable Inbox) that consistently pull sales, even from “quiet” lists.

🎯 Why Segmentation Is the Secret Sauce You’re Ignoring

You’re not scaling email because:

  • You’re sending the same message to everyone.

  • You’re relying on open rates to measure success.

  • You’ve built your list... but you’re treating everyone like they’re ready to buy now.

Here’s what happens when segmentation is done right:

  • Higher click-throughs.

  • Fewer unsubscribes.

  • Repeat buyers are triggered at the right time.

  • And most importantly? More sales from fewer emails.

The 5 Klaviyo Segments That Actually Print Money

Let’s get to the good stuff. These are tested, proven segments I use in real accounts — not theory.

1. Engaged Buyers

Who it targets: Recent purchasers who still open/click.

Why it matters: These folks are warm and primed for a second purchase.

Klaviyo Setup:

  • Placed Order at least once in the last 60 days

  • AND Has opened or clicked email in the last 30 days

👉 Use this for:

  • Post-purchase offers

  • Product education

  • Cross-sells

2. Engaged Non-Buyers

Who it targets: People who love your content… but haven’t bought.

Why it matters: They’re curious. They’re close. They need the right nudge.

Klaviyo Setup:

  • Zero purchases

  • Opened or clicked emails in the last 30 days

👉 Use this for:

  • Welcome flow optimizations

  • Subscriber-only offers

  • Abandoned browse/cart follow-up

3. At-Risk Buyers

Who it targets: Past customers who’ve gone quiet.

Why it matters: It’s easier to revive a lapsed customer than find a new one.

Klaviyo Setup:

  • Placed Order at least once

  • BUT has not opened/clicked in last 60 days

👉 Use this for:

  • Winback campaigns

  • VIP re-engagement series

  • Low-friction offers

4. High-Intent Shoppers

Who it targets: Website visitors + email engagers who haven’t purchased.

Why it matters: They’ve shown intent — they just didn’t convert.

Klaviyo Setup:

  • Viewed Product at least 2 times in last 14 days

  • Opened or clicked emails in the last 14 days

  • No purchases

👉 Use this for:

  • Scarcity offers

  • Social proof-heavy campaigns

  • Cart nudges with personalization

5. VIP Customers

Who it targets: Repeat customers who open, click, and love you.

Why it matters: These are your brand evangelists. Treat them like royalty.

Klaviyo Setup:

  • Placed Order at least 3 times

  • AND has opened/clicked in last 60 days

👉 Use this for:

  • Early access

  • Insider perks

  • Loyalty or referral campaigns

You Can’t Afford to Be Basic With Email

Here’s what to take away:

  • Email revenue is 90% timing and 10% messaging — segmentation controls both.

  • Your biggest money-makers are already on your list. You’re just not talking to them the right way.

  • Segmentation isn’t “advanced.” It’s the new email basic.
