## Who this helps

Shopify and WooCommerce brands that used Omnisend for email, SMS, and ecommerce automations, and now want full CRM, funnels, calendars, pipelines, and ad conversions in one place.

## What you keep

- Subscribers, tags, custom properties, segments replicated as tags and Smart Lists
- Suppressed profiles, unsubscribed, bounced, complaints imported as Email DND or SMS DND
- Flow content and campaign templates, rebuilt in the Email Builder and Workflows
- Key ecommerce events, order submitted, payment received, abandoned checkout, product purchased, wired into Workflows
- Ad conversions, Google and Meta, fired from Workflows when forms submit, deals close, or payments post

## What you rebuild

- Flows, recreate Omnisend logic as GoHighLevel Workflows with triggers, waits, conditions, goals
- Segments, reproduce with Smart Lists using tags, properties, event dates, order counts, LTV fields
- Forms and landing pages, move to GoHighLevel Forms, Surveys, Funnels. Embed temporarily during cutover if needed
- Preference center, manage granular Email DND and SMS DND with a simple update form
- Web push, either drop it or replace with email or SMS. GoHighLevel does not send browser push natively

## The 7 day, zero downtime plan

### Day 0, domain and numbers

- Set a dedicated sending subdomain, for example mail.yourbrand.com
- Add SPF, DKIM, DMARC in DNS. Verify the domain in GoHighLevel
- For SMS, register A2P 10DLC. Port or purchase a number. Map consent fields

### Day 1, export and mapping

- From Omnisend, export contacts with status, lists or segments, properties, last open, last click, last order
- Export suppression files separately, unsubscribes, bounces, complaints, SMS opt outs
- Define mapping, lists and segments to tags, properties one to one, event dates to custom fields
- Create needed custom fields in GoHighLevel, for example last\_engaged\_at, orders\_count, ltv, first\_order\_date

### Day 2, import with suppression

- Import active contacts. Map email, phone, name, properties, tags
- Import suppression as Email DND and SMS DND. Verify a few records
- Build Smart Lists that mirror priority segments, VIPs, repeat buyers, 90 day engaged, lapsing buyers

### Day 3, ecommerce and attribution

- Connect Shopify or WooCommerce. Enable order events and abandoned checkout
- Add hidden fields to forms, utm\_source, utm\_medium, utm\_campaign, gclid, wbraid, fbclid
- Keep checkout in Shopify or WooCommerce. Use GoHighLevel order forms only for special offers or services

### Day 4, flows to Workflows

- Rebuild core flows, Welcome, Browse or Cart recovery, Post purchase, Cross sell, Win back, VIP
- Use triggers, order submitted, payment received, abandoned checkout, product purchased, tag added, form submitted
- Replace Goals with “Event happened” checks and Go To steps
- Branch by engagement and value, opened, clicked, replied, orders\_count, LTV

### Day 5, templates and warmup

- Recreate headers, footers, legal, unsubscribe and preferences. Test merge fields
- Start sending to recent clickers, then recent openers, then 90 day engaged. Hold cold contacts
- Seed tests to Gmail, Outlook, Apple Mail. Check inbox rate and spam placement

### Day 6, cutover

- Swap all forms and landing pages to GoHighLevel versions
- Pause Omnisend automations and campaigns. Keep the account for reporting 2 to 4 weeks
- Turn on Google Ads offline conversions and Meta Conversions API from Workflows

### Day 7, monitor and tighten

- Watch opens, clicks, replies, unsubscribes, complaints, bounce types, revenue attribution
- Consolidate tags, standardize naming, lock Smart Lists and core Workflows
- Document DNS, list health, ecommerce triggers, and send thresholds

| ------------------------ | ---------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Lists and Segments       | Tags + Smart Lists                 | Prefix for clarity, list\_newsletter, seg\_vip                    |
| Contact properties       | Custom fields                      | Keep names, normalize later                                       |
| Flows                    | Workflows                          | Triggers, waits, splits, event checks                             |
| Campaigns                | Email campaigns or Workflow emails | Rebuild templates, then clone                                     |

Single source of truth, one list strategy. Use Smart Lists for targeting. Do not recreate multiple audiences.

## Abandoned checkout in GoHighLevel

- Trigger, Abandoned Checkout with a delay
- Email and SMS steps with dynamic order summary
- Goal check, order submitted or payment received ends the sequence
- Optional, fire Meta and Google conversion events on recovery

---

## Deliverability checklist

- SPF, DKIM, DMARC pass. From domain matches the authenticated domain
- Warm by engagement cohorts. Complaint rate under 0.1 percent, bounce rate under 2 percent
- Use Email Events in Workflows. Opened, clicked, replied filters scoped to each send
- Suppression imported as DND for email and SMS. Confirm with sample records

---

## SMS compliance and number strategy

- Register brand and campaign for A2P 10DLC before sending promotional SMS in the US
- Map consent fields. Require sms\_consent = true before any promo SMS
- Import SMS opt outs as SMS DND. Test inbound STOP to confirm suppression
- If you port numbers, test inbound and outbound, then switch routing in one step

---

## Common pitfalls and fixes

- Segment counts do not match, align rolling windows and time zones, check last\_engaged\_at logic
- Flows stall on email events, scope Email Events to the same message or campaign and extend waits
- Abandoned checkout not firing, verify store connection and delay threshold. Confirm event payloads
- Missing ad conversions, ensure gclid or fbclid capture on the first touch, then map in Workflow actions

## FAQ

**Can I keep all my segments**  
Yes. Recreate them as Smart Lists using tags, fields, events, and date filters. Counts may differ if your old windows were static. Match the lookbacks.

**Will unsubscribes and SMS opt outs stay suppressed**  
Yes. Import suppression as Email DND and SMS DND. Test a few records to confirm they never receive sends.

**Can I run abandoned checkout and post purchase**  
Yes. Use Abandoned Checkout, Order submitted, and Payment received triggers. End flows when a purchase event occurs.

**What about web push**  
GoHighLevel does not send browser push. Replace those steps with email or SMS, or connect a third party via webhook if you must keep push.

**Do I need to re confirm my list**  
No, if you preserved consent and suppression. Only new opt ins use your double opt in Workflow.
