Sidekick writes it — you put it live

Sidekick produces the content or code for this, but doesn't apply it to your store itself. You'll paste or publish the result yourself — the prompt tells Sidekick to explain exactly where it goes.

📋 Prompt
Run in Sidekick 
Help me create SMS marketing campaigns for my Shopify store:

SMS Campaign Types:


  
    Welcome SMS (after signup):
“Hey [Name]! 👋 Welcome to [Store]. Here’s 10% off your first order: [LINK]. Use code WELCOME10. Reply STOP to opt out.”
  
  
    Flash Sale Alert:
“🔥 [Store] FLASH SALE! 30% off everything for 24 hours only. Shop now: [LINK]. Reply STOP to unsubscribe.”
  
  
    Abandoned Cart Recovery:
“Hey [Name], you left something behind! 🛒 Complete your order and get free shipping: [LINK]. Reply STOP to opt out.”
  
  
    Back in Stock:
“[Name], great news! [Product] is back in stock. Grab yours before it sells out again: [LINK]. Reply STOP to opt out.”
  
  
    Post-Purchase Thank You:
“Thanks for your order, [Name]! 🎉 Track it here: [LINK]. Enjoy 15% off your next order with code THANKS15.”
  


Compliance Requirements:

  Include opt-out instructions in every message
  Collect explicit SMS consent (separate from email)
  Send only during business hours (9am-8pm recipient time)
  Maximum 4-6 SMS per month


Implementation:

  Recommend best Shopify SMS app
  Create SMS signup popup
  Set up automated flows (welcome, abandoned cart, post-purchase)
  Write 10 SMS templates for different occasions
  A/B test message variations


Note: Shopify has no native SMS channel — this is copy and a compliance checklist to configure inside an SMS app (Postscript, Attentive), not something Sidekick sends directly.
