About this listen

Most Shopify stores are bleeding margin with generic discount codes that get scraped, shared, and abused—while missing the strategic segmentation that actually drives conversions.

In this episode, discover:

  • How switching from "WELCOME10" to unique codes prevents coupon abuse while enabling targeted offers for new subscribers, win-back campaigns, and VIP segments—without the CFO panic about unlimited liability
  • Why 46% of distributed codes expire unused (revealing hidden opportunities in your customer data) and how brands like Viore and Allbirds use this intelligence to optimize discount strategies across 20,000+ merchant benchmarks
  • The personalization shift happening right now: moving from blanket discounts to behavior-based offers that make customers feel valued while protecting margins—especially critical after Shopify's 20x variant limit increase

Cara Marin is Product Owner for Bulk Discount Codebot at Seguno. Her team analyzed 162,000 discount code sets to create the industry's first comprehensive benchmarking report on strategic discounting.

Whether you're doing $10K months or $1M months, this conversation delivers actionable insights you can implement this week.
