Send order tracking link
For customers, meticulous order care is very important. This is especially true during the annual Christmas season when customers may purchase a large number of items. Sending order care and logistics reminders to customers with a high number of orders can make them feel relaxed and impressed. It will also eliminate the process of customers asking you for the status of their order through customer service.
