Practical ways you can use Email by Zapier and Shopify

Notify owner of new paid Shopify orders.

Stay informed about revenue activities in real time. When a new paid order is recorded on Shopify, Zapier will automatically send an outbound email to the business owner, letting them know about the transaction. This keeps the owner updated without actively monitoring Shopify and ensures no order goes unnoticed.

Business Owner
Notify IT of updates to product inventory.

Ensure system monitoring and integration adjustments stay up to date. When inventory is updated on Shopify, Zapier will send an email via Zapier Email to the IT team, informing them of changes in product levels and ensuring any dashboards or APIs reflect real-time stock information.

IT
Announce new Shopify products to email subscribers.

Make sure your subscribers are the first to know about new product launches. When a new product is added to Shopify, Zapier will trigger an email via Zapier Email to notify your pre-defined list of subscribers, keeping your audience engaged and informed regularly.
