ONE: AI, Email & SMS Marketing

Hi Lusso Team, It saddens our team that you have written such a blatantly misleading review. Allow me to go through all of your concerns point by point. 1. The app listing on the Shopify page indeed shows a $9 base price, but also mentions "upgrade as you grow". This is because a Shopify merchant is going to have very different usage needs based on their size. If a shop has 100 customers vs. 100,000 customers, their usage on our app is going to be very different and as such they will get charged different prices. 2. The way that pricing is advertised on the app page is actually very standard language, please look at the app listings for other apps if you don't believe us. 3. When signing up for our app, we make it very clear on our page what price you will be paying (in your case $29/month) and then on TOP of that, Shopify also has another page where they ask you to confirm the amount that you will be paying, AS WELL AS the dates that the payment is due. It's confusing to our team how with such clear signage, and confirmations that you needed to provide, that you're still accusing our app of being a scam. 4. Our app has a 10 day free trial, which you received. You installed our app on August 24th, 2024 and the billing cycle did not start till September 4th, 2024. Again, very confusing why you're claiming you did not receive a free trial when you so clearly did. 5. Additionally, yes we do charge separately for SMS because it is an expensive feature to operate. If you look at other SMS apps, they will also charge based on the amount of messages that you're looking to send. We do not force these charges on you, and you only pay those charges if you decide to use the SMS feature and send out messages. If you do not want to use SMS, then you do not pay for it. 6. You had reached out to our support team to complain about not being able to find certain features on our app (which we understand that the learning curve of new platforms can be frustrating). But when our team responded to help you find and operate the features that you were looking for you had stopped responding. Our team prides itself on our support, but it only works if the merchant is actually receptive to our help. 7. Looking through the backend of our system, it looks like the email messages you sent from our system were sent successfully and received delivered callbacks from the inboxes they were going to. So again, very confused about why you're saying the test emails didn't work. 8. Looking through our support interactions, none of our team members said "if you don't like it you can uninstall it". I'm not sure if you're confusing us with another app, but our team did not say this or anything even close to what you're implying. Again, very confused about why you're saying this. We're very disheartened to see that through all of this, you still decided to leave us a 1-star review instead of actually engaging with our support team. If you have any questions, we'd love to work with you to generate value for your business but if not we wish you the best of luck with your business. Best, ONE Team

Thank you for sharing your concerns. We understand your frustration and would like to provide some clarity on the situation. Over a year ago, we negotiated a custom plan with your team for $160 per month, which included 45,000 subscribers and unlimited email sends after a substantial 75% discount. Recently, under new Sowears marketing leadership, your account experienced significant changes: 1) Subscriber Increase: Your subscriber count surged from 45,000 to over 200,000 within a few days. 2) Email Volume: You sent 10,000,000 emails over a 30-day period, which averages about 7 emails per day per subscriber based on 45,000 subscriber limit, far exceeding the typical usage pattern. Our automated system flagged and paused your account due to these substantial increases from Sowears 45,000 subscriber limit. This was not a sudden or arbitrary decision but a necessary step to prevent potential spam issues and maintain the integrity of our platform. Given the new usage levels, we proposed a new pricing plan of $5,000 per month, reflecting the significant increase in both subscriber count and email volume. For context, here are the costs on similar platforms: Klaviyo: $7,800 per month Sendlane: $5,500 per month Yotpo: $5,500 per month Our pricing remains competitive and is in line with industry standards for the level of service and volume you are now utilizing. We strive to treat all our customers fairly and transparently. If you have any further questions or wish to discuss your plan in more detail, please feel free to reach out to our support team. We value your business and are here to help you find the best solution for your needs. Thank you for your understanding.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. It seems there's been a misunderstanding regarding the functionality of our post-purchase app within the Shopify framework. The challenge with post-purchase offers not being visible upon checkout when using certain payment methods like Apple Pay is, in fact, a known limitation imposed by Shopify. Therefore, no app on the Shopify platform including ours can offer a work around for Apple Pay and such. You can find more details about this limitation in Shopify's official documentation: https://shopify.dev/docs/apps/checkout/product-offers/post-purchase#limitations-and-considerations We genuinely value transparency and have taken steps to outline these limitations in our help desk documentation, as you've rightly pointed out. We understand that you'd prefer this information to be more prominently displayed, but due to the intricacies and number of features we offer, it becomes challenging to highlight every detail in our main text. Nevertheless, we take your feedback to heart and will consider ways to make such details more evident. We're here to assist and clarify any doubts you might have. We appreciate your understanding and hope you find the solutions that best suit your needs.

We regret to hear about your dissatisfaction with the pricing structure. We aim for transparency and it's unfortunate that Shopify App pricing section has a limited template. The initial pricing is indeed for up to 50 customers, as mentioned in our pricing section. For larger customer bases, we offer different plans to accommodate various needs. Please reach out to our customer service team directly at [email protected] or me at [email protected], we'd be more than willing to discuss your specific requirements and help find a plan that suits your needs. Thank you for your feedback. Cheers, Ann

Hi Ellen, we appreciate your feedback and thank you for being a loyal Free Plan user for almost 2 years. We understand that the new pricing may not have met your expectations, especially if you are not taking advantage of all of our apps. Our team worked hard to delay the pricing change as long as possible and provided our existing users with an additional discount to ease the transition. We noticed that the campaigns you had running assisted your store in making 29% of your total revenue in the last 30 days. Our team believes that we can help you optimize your campaigns and increase your revenue even more, which would help justify the costs of our new pricing. Give us a call, text, or email back. We would be happy to discuss some ideas on how to optimize your campaigns and pricing. Happy Valentine's Day! Ann

Dear Merchant, We have given users notice pricing change to come February 1st and a discount to legacy users. Please let our support team on Live Chat or [email protected] if you are seeing anything different so we can identify any bugs in the notifications. Regards, Ann

Hi Sarah, I see you were able to uninstall, nice work! Although a little hard to find in the Shopify Dashboard Install/Uninstall is controlled by Shopify. Apps are not given the ability to block merchants from uninstalling. I think you might have been mistaken when first writing this review. Apologies you felt stuck in one of our onboarding flows. Many of our merchants ask for 1-on-1 onboarding via demo call to better understand how we can serve their business and help them launch their first campaign within minutes. Recently, we are testing this onboarding option for only a small number of merchants. Based on your feedback and speaking with our leadership we are removing the onboarding call requirement. Please do reach out to me directly [email protected] if you like to give us another go. Cheers, Ann

*Update* All issues specific to merchant are resolved including merchant's latest reply in April. We are happy to work with merchant moving forward if they choose to return. Dear Merchant, Our deepest apologies for the delay. Over the past several weeks, we have been slowly upgrading our email infrastructure in preparation for the upcoming holiday season. We know that it's the busiest time of the year for our merchants, and wanted to ensure that once email volume on our system heavily scales up, that everything could flow through our system without issue. It seems like your account somehow got caught up in some delays during the maintenance period, but please rest assured that the maintenance is now over and that our system is back and is even better than before. Shopify billing unfortunately charges for app usage on your usual billing period with Shopify. So even though you uninstall you may see charge from prior month. Apps have zero ability to charge merchants after uninstall unless it was already pending on your invoice before uninstall. Please let me know if there's anything that I can personally help with in regards with email sending or anything else on our platform. Best, Ann

Yikes, that's a pretty frustrating experience you had. At first glance, we do not see nor receive reports of a system-wide issue with our popup not working as intended. Our team went ahead and conducted a thorough investigation of what might be giving you a hard time. We think we may know where you might have gotten hung up in our user experience and gone ahead and made updates to your campaign. Video Summary https://share.one.store/2Numo7wN Text Summary 1) There are two screens for the popup, the initial screen (step 1) and the rewards screen (step 2). It looked like you spent a lot of time getting your first screen customized to look like your brand but couldn't find how to customize the second screen. 2) We've mimicked the settings from the first screen of the popup to the second screen of the popup, so they both have a consistent look and feel. 3) Additionally, we think the other issue you were facing was that the popup was not "appearing" on your website with the current settings. It looks like what happened is one of your settings was "Stop Showing if the user had already subscribed to the popup," and looking through the account, it seems like you had already subscribed to the popup during one of your earlier test runs. 4) To continue to see how the popup looks on your website, we have a "Preview on Site" button that will allow you to see what your website looks like when "new" users visit it. The "Preview on Site" button will reset your browser and our app to think you are a new person seeing pop up. 5) If you visit your store website without clicking "Preview on Site" button, then our system will be subject to the "Stop showing setting" that was enabled as if you are experiencing the popup as one of your real customers. We offer 24/7 support, so we are happy to jump on a call, live chat conversation, or via email ([email protected]) anytime to discuss our investigation above or anything at all :) We look forward to hearing from you soon. Meanwhile, our product team will be looking into improve the user experience based on your feedback so that new users don't fall into similar confusion and frustration. Our popups is one of the most sophisticated on the market, but with complexity and flexibility in customization always creates room to improve the app interface. Regards, Maya
