Retention-Focused Email Marketing for Ecom Brands
Our KeepFlow™ Method powers high-retention email & SMS strategies for ecom brands; so the first sale is never the last.
The KeepFlow™ Method
The KeepFlow™ Method is our signature approach to retention marketing, built to turn one-time buyers into lifelong customers.
It’s more than just automated emails and text messages. KeepFlow™ is a structured, data-backed strategy that aligns every email and SMS touchpoint with your brand’s goals and your customer’s journey.
At Uptive, every message is optimized to boost customer lifetime value (CLV), increase repeat purchase, deepen brand loyalty, and drive sustainable revenue.
Why Choose Uptive?
Retention-First Always
Every step of your customer journey is built to keep the same energy that made them convert in the first place. From welcome flows to post purchase flows, we design retention loops that make staying the obvious choice.
We Prioritize the Inbox
Smart segmentation, clean list hygiene, and proven deliverability tactics that keep your best customers seeing your messages, not buried in spam.
The KeepFlow™ Method
Our proprietary process combines personalized backend systems, engaging campaigns, and customer-driven automations to turn first-time buyers into loyal fans who come back, and bring their friends.

Testimonials
From 16% to 39% Email-Attributed Revenue in 60 Days
This small brand’s email revenue was stuck between 10% and 16% of total revenue. Their flows were not properly set up, their campaigns were inconsistent, and they used default Klaviyo templates that looked generic and didn’t match the brand’s personality.

- Designed custom, audience-specific emails in Figma to replace the generic Klaviyo templates.
- Updated core flows: welcome, cart abandonment, browse abandonment, and post-purchase sequences.
- Launched campaigns that were both visually appealing and conversion-driven.
