Automated Emails with Orbee

Automated email campaigns allow you to give your customers personalized messages based on their individualistic buying behavior. We can customize the triggers, design, and verbiage to your requirements.

Here are a few of our default automations


Still Shopping (Viewed Vehicle)

The viewed vehicle email is sent to a shopper the day after they have visited the website and viewed a vehicle. To receive the Still Shopping automated emails, the shoppers must meet the following criteria:

  • Identity Resolution: Provided a valid email address during a previous site visit or their identity is resolved. 
  • Recent Website Visit: Visited the site and viewed at least one VDP. Indicating active interest in our vehicles as long as the vehicle is still available.
  • Email Engagement: Have not received an email from this campaign in the past 7 days, preventing email fatigue. An email will not be sent if the vehicle has become sold.

Price Drop

This email will send out to a shopper if the price of a vehicle they have viewed is lowered. To receive email notifications when the price drops on a vehicle, the shoppers must meet the following criteria:

    • Identity Resolution: We need to know the shoppers PII. This can be achieved by submitting a form on your website or their identity has been resolved. 
    • Vehicle Interest: When you view a Vehicle Details Page (VDP), we record that interest in that specific vehicle. 
    • Price Monitoring: We continuously monitor the prices of vehicles you've shown interest in. If a price drops after a shopper has viewed that VDP, we'll automatically send an email notification to the shoppers that qualify as long as the vehicle is still available.
