Why Post-Purchase DM Automation Actually Changes Everything

Most brands chase new customers and forget the ones who already bought.
That’s where money leaks.
Post purchase dm automation closes that hole and builds a cycle where every customer is a repeat customer.

Modern e-commerce brands use tools like
PeriScalehttps://periscale.app
ManyChathttps://manychat.com
Klaviyo + SMS integrationshttps://www.klaviyo.com
Shopify Flowhttps://shopify.com/flow

But PeriScale does something others don’t. It mixes 30-second AI replies with automated upsells, CRM sync, and analytics in one place.

This is where your LTV jumps.

DATA BOX. Post-Purchase Behavior Stats

79% of customers are more likely to buy again if the brand sends follow-up communication. (Source. Shopify Insights)
50–70% of review requests convert better through DMs than email.
20–45% of repeat orders come from personalized upsells within 7–21 days.

What You Can Automate After Every Purchase

Your post purchase dm automation should cover these layers.

1. Instant Thank-You Message

Examples.
• Hey [name], thanks for your order.
• Here’s your invoice.
• Want delivery updates here? Just reply “yes”.

Compare it.
• Email open rate → 17–25% (low)
• DM seen rate → 90–98% (way higher)

This is why PeriScale focuses heavily on DM flows instead of emails.

2. Delivery Updates Inside Their DM

Customers hate opening courier sites.
DM updates feel clean and quick.
