Free Shopify email calendar review
Four considered ideas for your next emails.
We read the public side of your Shopify store and write back with three campaign opportunities and one automation opportunity, each with a short explanation of why it may matter. No passwords, no customer lists, no platform access.
What you receive, in writing

Calendar review
A one-off written note: three campaign opportunities and one automation opportunity, from public store materials. Yours to use however you like.
Optional, paid
Email management
A separate managed service that takes recurring email execution off your day-to-day task list, with a consistent process and your final written approval. You keep your email platform and pay its fees separately. Entirely optional, and not part of the review.
Done-for-you email marketing
You keep your email platform. We run the email marketing for you.
Hand over the recurring email work without losing oversight, so more of your attention stays with running and growing your business. We take responsibility for the agreed execution, with a consistent planning, review and approval process. You provide accurate materials and final decisions; you do not need to become an email-marketing specialist or coordinate every build and check.
Software gives you the tools. Retention Steward runs the work.
Email marketing is an ongoing operating cycle: plan the calendar, create and check the emails, schedule and send only approved versions, monitor within scope, then use the reported results to refine the next plan. Our outsourced email-marketing service manages that cycle within the defined offer, rather than leaving your team to organise it again each month. It is a bounded managed function, not unlimited work or full-service retention marketing.
A low monthly email software subscription buys access to tools, templates, automations and sending infrastructure, depending on the plan. Retention Steward provides the managed service that plans and runs your ongoing email marketing, with human supervision. We are not a replacement email platform.
You keep your chosen email platform and pay its fees separately. We work in your account with invited access, and confirm that your existing platform supports the agreed work before you commit.
- Four approved campaigns each month
- We manage your campaign calendar and planning, drafting, building and QA for four campaigns per month, with AI-assisted drafting and human review of every email.
- Audience rules and written approval
- We set up or select one agreed audience per campaign and check permissions, suppressions and applicable exclusions. You approve the exact final version in writing before scheduling.
- One automation improvement
- We agree one practical improvement to your automated emails, which may include a small welcome sequence when appropriate. It is one agreed project; further automation work is separately scoped.
- Ongoing execution within scope
- Approved scheduling, limited monitoring, monthly reporting and business-day support keep the agreed work moving. We use the available results to inform the next monthly plan; additional work remains separately scoped.
Platform capabilities and plans vary. Your Shopify, email-platform and other tool fees are separate from our service fee.

Questions
About the review
What does the free review include?
We look at the public parts of your Shopify store and return three campaign opportunities and one automation opportunity, each with a short written explanation of why it may matter for your store.
Do I need to share passwords, customer lists or platform access?
No. This initial review uses only what is publicly visible on your store. Please do not send passwords, logins or customer data with your request.
Do I have to book a call or switch email platforms?
No. The review is written, so no recurring meeting is required, and no platform migration is required to receive it.
Is the review connected to paid management?
Ongoing email management is a separate, optional paid service. Requesting the review does not commit you to it, and you are welcome to use the suggestions on your own.
What do you need from me?
Your name, email address, brand name and store URL. An optional short message is welcome if there is something you would like us to look at.
What can we email besides discounts?
Useful product guides, genuine restocks, care advice and answers to buying questions can each give a campaign a clear purpose. We plan from verified merchandising facts rather than invent urgency. See a practical four-campaign calendar.
