Every recipe starts with Shopify Flow (free on most plans and the one other recipe sites skip), then shows how to do it in Make, n8n or Zapier.
Email your supplier when a product runs low
When a variant drops to your reorder point, send the supplier a reorder email with the SKU and current quantity, so you stop finding out from a customer.
Tag VIP customers automatically by lifetime spend
Add a VIP tag when a customer's total spend passes a threshold, so your email tool, discounts and support team can treat them differently.
Follow up on failed subscription payments
When a subscription renewal charge fails, tag the customer and alert your team so the save happens before the subscriber churns.
Post every refund to Slack
Get a Slack message with the order number, amount and note every time someone issues a refund, so refund spikes and mistakes get caught the same day.
Ask for a review a few days after delivery
Time review requests off the actual delivery scan instead of the ship date, so customers have the product in hand when you ask.
Hold and flag high-risk orders before they ship
When Shopify's fraud analysis marks an order high risk, put fulfillment on hold, tag it, and ping the team to review.
