Example Output
Journey Workflow: Cart Abandonment Recovery
Trigger: Customer abandons cart (event captured)
↓
Segment: Value > $50, email engaged last 30 days, not repeat buyer
↓
Email 1: Reminder + 10% discount (send 2 hours after abandonment)
↓
Wait: 24 hours
↓
Decision: Opened Email 1?
→ YES: Email 2 (social proof, testimonials)
→ NO: SMS + 15% offer
↓
End: Purchased? Suppress from abandonment journey, add to post-purchase nurture
