Campaign Types
Vori offers four built-in preset campaigns. Each campaign type serves a different purpose and performs best when set up thoughtfully.
💡Tip: For more details on setting up automated campaigns in Vori, view the full guide: How to Set Up Automated Campaigns.
1. Welcome Message
Triggered automatically when someone joins your loyalty program.
Example:
✨ Thanks for signing up for the [STORE NAME] Loyalty program! We send occasional exclusive offers to our members. To say thank you for signing up, we'd like to give you a $5 off coupon you can use on your next visit. 💞
If you don’t want to receive messages, simply reply STOP to opt-out. Standard message and data rates apply.
See you soon!
- Best Practice: Turn this message on as soon as you launch your loyalty program. It's your first chance to engage a shopper via text—make it count! Include a small welcome offer to encourage an immediate visit and let them know they’ll continue receiving exclusive deals.
- Offer idea: $5 off your next visit, expires in 10 days.
2. Explore the Store
This campaign encourages loyalty shoppers to explore more of your store and increase their basket size.
💡 Tip - Vori’s marketing AI sends personalized coupons a few times per year to select loyalty members. Each coupon includes a minimum spend amount slightly above the shopper’s typical basket size—motivating them to spend more on their next visit.
You control:
-
Discount amount- (5%, 10%, or 15%)
-
Frequency- (2, 4, or 6 times per year)
-
Coupon duration- (number of days the offer is valid)
Example:
Hey from [STORE NAME] 👋 We’d really like you to check out more of what our store has to offer, so here's a discount to help. Show this coupon to the cashier for extra savings. We hope to see you soon!
Reply STOP to opt-out.
- Best Practice: Keep the message short, friendly, and focused on the value of discovering more during their next visit.
- Example Offer: 4 times per year, customers with an average basket of $33.00 will receive a coupon for $4.00 off when they spend $40.00 or more valid for 7 days.
3. Come Back
Offer shoppers who haven't visited the store in a while an incentive to come back.
Example:
Long time no see! We miss you at [STORE NAME].
Here’s a coupon to save on your next visit. Show this message at checkout—we’d love to see you soon!
Reply STOP to opt-out.
- Best Practice: Keep the tone warm and casual. Include a sense of urgency by setting a short coupon expiration.
- Offer Idea: $5 off on $35, valid for 7-10 days to capture the customer's weekly shopping window.
💡Tip- Vori recommends sending this campaign when a customer hasn't shopped in 10-14 days, but the timing of the message is customizable.
4. Anniversary
Thank shoppers on their anniversary of joining the program.
Example:
🎉 Happy Anniversary! You’ve been a loyalty member at [STORE NAME] for [X YEARS] now. Show this message at checkout for a little something from us to say thanks!
Reply STOP to opt-out.
- Best Practice: Celebrate the milestone, reinforce their loyalty, and thank them for being part of the store’s community.
- Offer Idea: Free treat, $5 coupon, or 10% off on $100.
