Restated from the audit

Why this week, this cohort.

64 power users are eligible for a founder-led referral test. They know the product well enough to tell you what is worth sharing.

This is a narrow, high-trust audience. They have enough purchase history to make a referral ask credible, but the program should still be framed as a validation test, not a proven growth channel.

power users eligible for referral validation test

A two-touch founder-led invite for power users. The copy anchors the ask in Camo Tee in Black and Camo Hoodie in Black, keeps incentives at none, and treats referral as a validation pilot.

Strategy decision memo
Chosen play
Camo Tee in Black validation pilot
Rev 3 · Conf 3 · Proof 2 · Risk 2 · Spec 4
Objective
proof capture
Why this product now

Camo Tee in Black is safe for a validation-pilot ask; the campaign tests whether loyal buyers will discuss this exact product without claiming creator/referral proof. 1 observed customers/orders/units keep the recommendation on Camo Tee in Black.; 1 observed customers/orders/units support keeping the message on Camo Tee in Black

Belief to change

The buyer needs to believe Camo Tee in Black is the right product-specific next step now.

Objection

a loyal buyer may hesitate to recommend Camo Tee in Black unless the ask is specific and low-claim.

Camo Hoodie in Black to Camo Tee in White category-jump test
Rev 3 · Conf 2 · Proof 2 · Risk 3 · Spec 4

Rejected because the computed brief has a stronger product path.

Percent-off Camo Tee in Black discount
Rev 3 · Conf 3 · Proof 1 · Risk 4 · Spec 2

Rejected because generic discount is blocked by the computed brief.

Camo Tee in Black proof-capture pilot
Rev 2 · Conf 1 · Proof 1 · Risk 5 · Spec 3

Rejected as a launch; only proof capture is defensible.

So your reporting works

Name campaigns and tag links the same way every time.

Two short codes that turn anonymous "clicks" into "clicks from week 1 touch 2." Without them, the scorecard at the end of the week can't tell which touch did the work.

Naming convention
W4 Affiliate T{n}
Why
Consistent names make the week easy to audit in Klaviyo.
How
Name each campaign `W4 Affiliate T1`, `T2`, and so on.
✓Check: Klaviyo Campaigns should show the week number, campaign name, and touch number.
UTM template
utm_source=klaviyo&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=w4_affiliate_t{n}
Why
It separates touch performance in analytics.
How
Replace `{n}` with the touch number before sending.
✓Check: A test link should include the correct campaign and touch.
§ W4 · Setup 03 of 03 · Guardrails
07 / 13
Four things that quietly break the week

Pin these to the wall before you hit send.

Each guardrail is a small habit. Skip one and the week's numbers get harder to read at the end — not impossible, just noisier than they need to be.

01
Use the same sender on every touch.
02
Do not add discounts unless campaign.incentive allows it.
03
Exclude responders before later touches.
04
Use only product names present in campaign.productIntel.

What we expect, what to compare against.

Each row is a metric we'll track. Projected is what we believe this campaign will hit; benchmark is the industry-average comparison point. The gap (the lift column) is where the cohort-warming logic shows up — these aren't strangers, they're 3+ time buyers.
