SECTION 01

Executive summary.

The thesis, the shape of the work, and the outcome we'll prove in ninety days.

PROPERONI sells to four different customers through one database. We'll treat them as four, with a focused retention engine that lifts D2C revenue, strengthens grocery pull-through, and protects trade relationships.

Why now

A growing list, mixed intent, and inconsistent consent are diluting performance and risking deliverability. The window to build foundations is before scale, not after.

What we recommend

A tightly scoped 90-day programme: four audiences, eleven priority flows, one consent framework, and one calendar, paced by intent, not volume.

Outcome

Measurable lift in D2C revenue, trade re-engagement and list health , and the evidence base to decide whether to scale.

SECTION 02

Four audiences.

One database, four customers. Each gets its own intent, cadence and outcome.

D2C4–6 / month

Direct Consumer

Why · Buys from the website. Revenue and retention live here.

Plan · Welcome, replenishment, winback. Personalised offers and content.

Outcome · Higher repeat rate and customer lifetime value.

GROCERY2–4 / month

Retail Shopper

Why · Buys Properoni in store. Engagement supports sell-through.

Plan · Recipe content, where-to-buy, retailer-aware updates.

Outcome · Stronger pull-through and category visibility.

TRADE1–2 / month

Trade Buyer

Why · Chefs, operators, distributors. Relationships, not blasts.

Plan · Seasonal opportunities, account-level care, considered cadence.

Outcome · Larger, more frequent account orders.

LOW≤ 1 / month

Low Intent

Why · Unknown or disengaged. Risk to deliverability if mis-sent.

Plan · Re-permission, qualification, sunset.

Outcome · A cleaner, more contactable list.

SECTION 03

Content & calendar.

A monthly rhythm paced by audience intent, not arbitrary send quotas.

Guiding principle

Plan to audience intent, not to a channel quota. Every send should earn its place by audience, moment and commercial purpose.

SECTION 04

Automation strategy.

Eleven priority flows in Phase 1, focused where commercial impact is highest.

Philosophy

Automation should support customer relationships and commercial objectives, not simply increase message volume.

Priority flows · Phase 1

Six D2C, three Grocery, two Trade. Built once, audience-aware, with governance in the foundation rather than bolted on.

SECTION 09, NEXT STEP

From strategy to
live execution.

You already have the full Klaviyo audit and a clear view of what's working, what's leaking revenue, and what needs to be improved.

The next step is simply execution. If you decide to move forward, we take the audit recommendations and immediately begin implementation across your email system, starting with the highest-impact fixes first, then building out a structured retention engine designed to increase repeat revenue and campaign performance.

There's no additional discovery phase or rework of what's already been reviewed. Everything is already mapped. We now just move into building and optimising.

No re-discovery

The audit is complete. Everything is already mapped, no rework, no repeated questions.

Highest-impact first

We start with the fixes that recover revenue fastest, then build out the retention engine.

Aligned go-live

Once confirmed, we agree on start timing and move straight into building and optimising.
