How we work with Klaviyo

An Extension of Klaviyo's GTM Org.

Most agencies ask what Klaviyo can do for them. We ask what Klaviyo needs us to do — and go execute on the answer.

“We don't view this as a referral relationship. We operate as an extension of Klaviyo's commercial org — their pipeline, their reps' quotas, and their new products are our scoreboard.”
  1. 01

    Ask-First GTM Cadence

    We run a recurring rhythm with Klaviyo leadership and PAC contacts where we explicitly ask, “What do you need us to be selling right now?” — then go execute.

    ProofCustomer Agent — built the demo tool, trained on it, presented at All-Hands, co-sold it before there was an agency playbook.
  2. 02

    Klaviyo's Pipeline Is Our Scoreboard

    Most agencies track their own revenue. We track Klaviyo's: leads created, closed-won opps, MRR attributed. We measure success by the value we create for Klaviyo — not just for ourselves.

  3. 03

    Proactive Pipeline Creation for Klaviyo AEs

    Most agencies wait for Klaviyo reps to bring them a deal. ECD does the opposite — we actively look for ways to create net-new pipeline for Klaviyo AEs before they ask.

    Proof
    • Redesigned churned-prospect emails for AEs to print and mail — turning cold accounts into re-engagement opportunities.
    • Audited recently churned and dormant accounts to identify re-activation potential for commercial AEs.
    • Sit in on open opportunity reviews with Klaviyo AEs to identify where ECD can accelerate or unblock a deal.
    • Only commercial agency invited to GTMKO in Austin to present to the full AMER sales org on agency-AE collaboration best practices.
  4. 04

    We Show Up for Klaviyo Reps, Even When There's Nothing in It for Us

    When a Klaviyo AE is working a deal, ECD joins the call, brings the expertise, and helps close it — even knowing the account won't become an ECD client. The win that matters is the rep hitting quota.

    Proof
    • Joined Caite and Kyla on active deals to support close.
    • Black Vegan Shop — supported the AE on the call without an ECD engagement.
    • Gay Pride Apparel — same play: showed up for the rep, no agency revenue attached.
  5. 05

    Investing in Klaviyo's New Products Before They Have Traction

    We build infrastructure around new Klaviyo products before there's a proven agency motion — betting on what Klaviyo is building, not just what's already working.

  6. 06

    Making Klaviyo Reps Look Good Internally

    Slack responsiveness, co-sell wins on a rep's quota, revenue bells — we actively contribute to individual AE performance reviews, not just our own P&L.

    ProofEvery co-sell win announced in-channel, tagged to the rep, with MRR attribution they can take to their manager.
  7. 07

    Ecosystem Education, Not Just Client Education

    We invest in educating Klaviyo's own people and partners — not only our clients. That's a different level of investment in the platform's success.

    PAC as a Two-Way Street

    Most PAC members show up to listen. We bring agency-side intelligence back to Klaviyo leadership to help shape product, program, and GTM design.

    ProofActive input on partner program design and Customer Agent agency enablement.
Your wins are our scoreboard.
Partner Pulse

The monthly artifact behind the partnership.

A recurring deliverable we publish for Klaviyo's commercial org — not a service we sell.

Klaviyo x ECD Partner Pulse

A monthly newsletter we write for Klaviyo's reps.

ECD publishes a recurring internal newsletter to Klaviyo's commercial org that recaps what we closed together, names the reps who won, highlights internal Klaviyo all-stars (Sales Directors, Partner Managers, new programs), reports K:Service and Customer Agent momentum, and shares DTC Revenue Rocket stats. Most agencies wait for Klaviyo's enablement team to celebrate reps. We do it ourselves, every month.
