How to Email a Customer from Their Profile

Sometimes one customer deserves a personal note: a thank you, a nudge, or a coupon after a complaint. The profile sends one in a minute, in your store’s email design.

Go to Customers and click the customer, or use Customer Profile under their name on the Users screen. This works for customers with an account.

The Profile box has Send Email, next to Edit Account and All Orders.

The form starts from the Manual Email template under Emails. Change the Subject and Message as you like. Placeholders such as {customer_name} and {coupon_code} are filled in when it is sent.

  • Show the N products they showed interest in: the products they viewed or added to the cart, newest first.
  • Add a single-use coupon: a new CT- coupon for their email, with the value under Configuration → Recovery.

Click Send Email. The form says “Email sent to” and the address. On the demo, Amara got this:

The email Amara received

It is listed in the Email Log as a manual email. If the customer orders within the attribution window, it is marked Converted with the order’s total.

  • A manual email has no Stop these reminders link, and it goes out even to someone who stopped the reminders.
  • To change the starting text for every manual email, edit Emails → Manual Email.
