After - ACF Deployment Plan
React / Next.js - significantly faster than WordPress/WooCommerce

Abandoned cart recovery - automated SMS + email sequence
Seasonal email campaigns run automatically
Review capture + post-purchase upsell sequences
AI customer service powered by Anthropic - 24/7
Planned ACF Agents
planned
AI Product Recommendation Chatbot

'I need a backpack for a 3-day solo trip in the Santa Cruz mountains' → AI recommends specific products with links, upsells complementary gear, captures the sale 24/7.

planned
Abandoned Cart Recovery

Customer adds to cart but doesn't buy → automated SMS + email sequence with a friendly nudge. Most e-commerce stores recover 10-15% of abandoned carts this way.

planned
Post-Purchase Upsell

Bought hiking boots → 3 days later → automated email: 'You might also need these for the trail.' Increases average order value without manual effort.

planned
Review Management Agent

Purchase delivered → automated review request to Google + outdoor gear directories. Positive reviews drive organic search traffic.

planned
Email Campaign Automation

Seasonal campaigns (fall hiking, winter camping, summer trails) auto-scheduled and sent. No manual planning required after initial setup.

planned
Inventory Alert Agent

Popular SKUs running low → owner notified. Out-of-stock items → customers automatically notified when back in stock.

Running an E-Commerce Store?

WooCommerce, Shopify, or custom - if you have products and customers, ACF can automate recommendations, recovery, upsells, and reviews.
