What if one simple phone call could double your Shopify customer lifetime value? In this episode of the Shopify1Percent podcast, I break down a surprising data point we uncovered at Bold: customers who talk to someone from your company are up to 2X more likely to become loyal, repeat buyers. Whether it’s post-purchase onboarding, feature education, or just a friendly check-in, this small human touch could be your biggest Shopify retention hack.
Key Take-aways📞 A single phone call post-purchase can double activation rates 💬 Human interaction builds trust, boosts LTV, and increases review rates 🔥 Don’t call them customers until they buy twice — treat them like leads until then 📦 Set up simple filters in your Shopify dashboard to track who to call 🎯 Even a bad support call can drive higher retention than no call at all
