The snushero Story

snushero is one of Germany's leading online shops for snus and nicotine pouches. Over 100,000 satisfied customers, one-day delivery, a freshness guarantee, and a product range featuring brands like Siberia, Velo, and Pablo. The company grows fast and has a community that reorders regularly. Email campaigns and paid ads delivered traffic and revenue, but costs were rising and conversion rates fell short of expectations. snushero needed a channel that monetises new customers faster and reactivates existing ones more efficiently. A channel that scales and stays highly profitable. They chose WhatsApp with Chatarmin. Co-Founder Florian Walz puts it simply: "Internally, chatarmin.com was named the best growth decision of 2024. Insane tool!"

How the campaign was built

snushero implemented a full WhatsApp marketing stack with Chatarmin. Over 5 months, a combination of automated flows and targeted broadcast campaigns ran in parallel.

The setup rested on three pillars.

  1. Welcome and checkout flows greeted new contacts instantly and converted them into buyers through intelligent triggers.
  2. Broadcast campaigns delivered themed offers and promotions regularly to segmented audiences.
  3. Data-driven optimisation ensured that revenue per recipient and conversion rates kept climbing.

With 5,704 WhatsApp contacts, that amounts to €79.20 in revenue per subscriber. snushero didn't just build the channel. They optimised it systematically.

The Technical Setup

Connecting directly to the existing tech stack

snushero connected Chatarmin directly to their existing shop system. Customer data, order history, and segments sync automatically. The team manages all campaigns and flows from the Chatarmin dashboard.

Automated Flows

Using the Chatarmin Flow Builder, snushero runs automated WhatsApp journeys for the most important touchpoints of a consumable goods shop: → Welcome Flow: New customers are greeted immediately and guided toward their first purchase with an offer. → Checkout Flow: Contacts who abandon their purchase receive an automatic reminder. → Reorder Reminder: A reminder is sent based on the typical consumption cycle — when the tin runs out, the next order gets nudged. → Back-in-Stock: Notifications go out the moment sold-out products are available again.

The WhatsApp Strategy

Automated Flows

Automated Flows

Multi-step Campaign Sequences

Multi-step Campaign Sequences

Over 5 months, a combination of regular broadcast campaigns ran back to back. Each campaign had its own theme: new brands in the range, reorder reminders, seasonal offers. The frequency was high enough to drive revenue and focused enough to keep subscribers engaged.

Relevant Content for the Right Audience

Relevant Content for the Right Audience

snushero segments recipients by purchase behaviour and brand preference. Siberia buyers get Siberia offers. Velo fans get Velo news. That keeps relevance high and explains the €79.20 revenue per recipient over 5 months.

Exclusive Offers and Codes
