Most brands are forgettable.
Yours doesn’t have to be.

The problem:
Customers don’t enjoy buying from—or associating with—your brand.
They tolerate your marketing, skim your emails, and churn feels inevitable.

The solution:
Blend education and entertainment across all your marketing so 
customers look forward to seeing you and can’t wait to buy (again).

• 88% say it helps differentiate their brand.
• 93% say it’s more effective at educating buyers.

My processes have helped brands from startups to Fortune 500 
turn customers into fans who look forward to seeing their ads, 
buying their products, and sharing with others.

Helping brands that use Shopify+Klaviyo 2X their email and SMS revenue with 1:1 personalized graphics. Founder/CEO. Follow me to make money with email.

“Email marketing is dead.” That’s what they say. But if your emails aren’t making money, it’s not because email is dead... its because they’re boring.

I’m Lou Mintzer, CEO of Grid & Pixel. We help 7-9 figure Shopify brands scale with 1:1 creatives that autoplay in 99% of inboxes. We bring email and SMS campaigns to life with eye-catching, personalized graphics.

We’ve partnered with Shopify, Klaviyo, Omnisend, and Sendlane to keep things drop-dead simple, allowing you to spend less time tweaking templates and more time driving revenue. With 5 stars, 100+ reviews, and features by Shopify and Klaviyo, we’re proving that personalized content doesn’t just look better—it performs better.

Before Grid & Pixel, I spent 12 years as Chief Product Officer at Homesnap, leading the development of the award-winning real estate app before selling it to CoStar Group for $250M in 2020 and rebranding it to Homes.com.

I’m also an Advisor to the First Street Foundation and moonlight as a Venture Partner at NextGen Venture Partners, where I love working with entrepreneurs and helping to identify and support big ideas.

But enough about me—let’s talk about you.

If you’re a Shopify brand looking to drive reliable, repeatable revenue with flows that actually convert, get started today by installing the app for free:

Because the only thing that’s truly dead is boring content.

𝗗𝗮𝘆 1 𝗮𝘁 eTail™ 𝗪𝗲𝘀𝘁.

Solid room. Thoughtful operators. Great conversations all around.

These conversations remind me why I love e-commerce.

If personalization depends on someone remembering to do the right thing, it won’t scale.

That idea keeps coming back.

Not more campaigns.
Better systems.

Built in. Not bolted on.

Grateful for the dialogue, the pushback, the new connections, and the shared obsession with building things that actually work.

Strong start.

Back at it today.

Great connecting with:

Boring emails are dead. I help Shopify+Klaviyo brands make more money with thumb-stopping content.

𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗺 𝗦𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀, 𝗙𝗲𝗯𝗿𝘂𝗮𝗿𝘆 24–25.

I’ll be speaking at eTail™ West as part of Klaviyo Visionaries, sharing how to build systems where personalization happens by default, not because someone remembered to hit send.

Looking forward to being in the room with the teams at Klaviyo and Swym for this one.

I hope you can join me! Check out the agenda here: 👉

𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗼𝗮𝗿𝗱. It’s 1:1.

And most brands still treat it like Times Square.

Big header.
Big promo.
Big “LAST CHANCE.”

Sent to everyone.

Here’s the problem.

Your customer doesn’t open email thinking,
“Show me an ad.”

They open it thinking,
“What’s in this for me?”

Monday reminder:

Retention isn’t about volume.
It’s about relevance.

The brands that win this week won’t send more emails.

They’ll send better ones.

Messages triggered by real behavior.
Creative tailored to real moments.
Flows that fire automatically when something actually happens.

Not noise.

Not blasts.

Systems.

Because when email feels personal,
it converts personal.

This is what we build inside Grid & Pixel.

Real brands.
Real lifecycle systems.
Built for Klaviyo.

If your Monday plan is just “send something,” it might be time to upgrade the system.

Less grunt work.

In Palm Springs for eTail™ West this week. 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗲𝘄 𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗽 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀.

There’s a lot of noise in ecommerce right now. New tools, new trends, constant takes. But the operators who are building, testing, and actually shipping feel as strong as ever.

That part gives me confidence.

Grateful to work in an industry that moves fast, rewards creativity, and forces you to keep learning.

I love ecom.

This isn’t for everyone. 𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗴𝗻 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗮, 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

This is for Shopify brands who are tired of inconsistent email revenue.

Here’s the mistake we see across ecommerce.

Most brands market to:
• Solution aware
• Product aware
• Most aware

That’s where competition is loudest.
That’s where discounts live.
That’s where everyone is fighting for the same click.

But scale rarely happens there.

There are five awareness levels:
Unaware.
Problem aware.
Solution aware.
Product aware.
Most aware.

Most brands skip problem aware completely.

And that’s expensive.

Across 3,000+ Shopify brands using Grid & Pixel, the biggest lift in email performance doesn’t come from sending more campaigns.

It comes from structuring flows and lifecycle messaging around awareness level.

Welcome flows that educate.
Post-purchase flows that deepen belief.
Campaigns that meet the customer where they are.

Not louder.
More aligned.

When Klaviyo is structured properly, email stops feeling reactive.

It starts compounding.

Serious operators build systems.
Everyone else chases spikes.

Question for you:

Which awareness level is your email actually speaking to right now?

𝗜’𝘃𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗳𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗱𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗲…
without even realizing it.

All because of one avoidable mistake:

They don’t measure the machine.

Most teams jump straight into campaign mode.

New creative.
New subject line.
New promo.

Hit send.
Hope.

But here’s the truth:

If you’re not tracking deliverability, split testing flows, and optimizing capture…

You’re not running lifecycle.

You’re guessing.

And guessing doesn’t scale.

The fix isn’t “send more.”

It’s infrastructure:

• Live deliverability scoring
• Flow split tests running 24/7
• Popups converting above 10%
• Segments warming before the send
• Automation that compounds weekly

That’s it.

No chaos.
No scramble.
Just a system.

This is how we build retention inside Grid & Pixel.

AI-powered email designs.
Flows that plug directly into Klaviyo.
Campaigns structured before the rush hits.

If you want to feel what a real system looks like…

We made it simple.

$1 for your first month.

Low risk.
Real execution.
