Increasing email open rates from 30% to 58% in 90 Days
Transforming Swiss Mountain Rescue’s Klaviyo Strategy
Swiss Mountain Rescue is a sport performance brand that that uses email as a key channel for communication, retention, and repeat engagement.
However, their existing Klaviyo setup was underperforming across all key metrics:
Low deliverability score
High unsubscribe rates
Low open rates
Weak click-through rates
This limited the brand’s ability to effectively communicate with their audience and reduced the overall value of their email channel, so, we implemented a combined strategic and creative email marketing.
Database Re-Engagement: Cleaned and segmented the email list to re-engage inactive subscribers and improve overall list health to support deliverability
Audience Segmentation: built targeted segments based on behaviour and engagement to deliver a more relevant messaging to each audience group
Campaign Strategy & Creative: Designed high-impact email campaigns with clear structure, balanced content and conversion-focused CTAs while improving visual design and readability
Automated Flows (Klaviyo): Built and optimised key lifecycle flows focused on retention, engagement, and repeat interaction
Results (Within 3 Months):
Open rate: 30% → 58%
Click-through rate: 0.43% → 1.87%
Unsubscribe rate: 3.37% → 1.3%
Automated Flow Performance:44%+ average open rates
2.5% average click rate
These improvements rebuilt their email communication as a reliable and high-performing channel, by fixing deliverability issues, improving segmentation, and redesigning both campaigns and flows, we transformed Swiss Mountain Rescue’s email marketing into a high-engagement, sustainable channel with a monthly return.
