How to Run a Klaviyo Deliverability Audit From Slack

You can run a Klaviyo deliverability audit from Slack by connecting Sterling CoWorker to your Klaviyo account. Once connected, you can type a natural language request like, "run a weekly Klaviyo deliverability audit and summarize the key risks in a Slack message." Sterling will then check your campaigns and flows for high bounce rates, spam complaints, and engagement decay, delivering a clean summary directly to you in Slack.

The Real Cost of a "Quick" Klaviyo Check

You know the drill. You need to check on your email deliverability. Are your last three campaigns landing in the inbox or the spam folder? Is that new welcome flow getting opened, or is it hitting a wall of bounced addresses?

So you stop what you're doing, open a new tab, and log into Klaviyo. You click through campaigns, then flows, exporting a few CSVs. You pull the numbers for bounce rates, unsubscribe rates, and spam complaints. Then you try to compare them to last week's numbers, which are in another spreadsheet.

An hour later, you have a rough idea, but you've completely lost your focus.

The alternative isn't much better. You could assign it to a virtual assistant (VA). But that means writing a detailed SOP, checking their work, and dealing with timezone delays. You're still managing the task, just one step removed. It's another person to micromanage.

Stop Babysitting Workflows. Get an Answer.

Trying to stitch together a solution with generic automation tools often ends in frustration. You're stuck building and babysitting flows, hoping they don't break when an API changes. You wanted an answer, but you got homework instead.

Sterling CoWorker is different. It’s not a chatbot that tells you what to do. It's a coworker that does the work for you, right inside Slack where your team already operates.

You type one message. Sterling runs the audit, analyzes the data, and brings back a summary with the key risks. If it finds a list of unengaged subscribers that needs cleaning, it will draft the segment and wait for your one-tap approval before taking any action.

No new tabs. No spreadsheets. No managing. Just the report, waiting for you in Slack.

Illustrative Workflow: The 8 AM Deliverability Check

Here’s how a business owner could use Sterling to stay on top of their Klaviyo health without ever leaving Slack. This is an illustrative example based on Sterling's capabilities.

1. The Request: The owner types a message in a private Slack channel with Sterling: "Hey Sterling, every Monday at 8 AM, run a deliverability audit on our main Klaviyo account. I want to see bounce rates, spam complaint rates, and unsubscribe rates for all campaigns sent in the last 7 days. Also, flag any flows with an open rate below 20%." 2. The Execution: Sterling connects to the Klaviyo API. It pulls the performance data for recent campaigns and analyzes every active flow against the 20% open rate threshold. It identifies two campaigns with bounce rates over the 2% industry warning track and a welcome flow that's underperforming. 3. The Summary: At 8:00 AM Monday, a message appears in Slack: > Klaviyo Deliverability Audit: Summary > > * Campaigns (Last 7 Days): > Spring Sale Launch:* 3.1% Bounce Rate (High) > New Arrivals:* 2.5% Bounce Rate (High) > Weekly Newsletter:* 0.4% Bounce Rate (Healthy) > * Flows (Open Rate < 20%): > Welcome Series, Email #3:* 18% Open Rate > > Recommendation: The high bounce rates on the two sale campaigns suggest a list hygiene issue. I can create a segment of non-engagers from the last 120 days for you to review and suppress.

4. The Approval: Below the summary, Sterling presents a button: [Draft Non-Engager Segment]. The owner reads the report and taps the button. 5. The Action: Sterling creates the new segment in Klaviyo and replies in Slack: "Done. The segment 'Non-Engagers (120 Days)' is ready for your review in Klaviyo. I have not suppressed them. Let me know when you're ready for the next step."

The entire process took the owner less than 30 seconds. No logins, no spreadsheets, and no risk of an unapproved action.

Frequently Asked Questions

3. Will Sterling take actions in my accounts without my permission?

No. Any action that writes data or changes a system (like creating a segment, sending an email, or updating a customer record) stops and asks for your one-tap approval in Slack first. You are always in control.
