Tag your best Shopify customers in Drip
For email marketers who want high-spending Shopify customers tagged in Drip, without subscribing anyone new, by asking their AI assistant.
On this page
Connector
Connect Shopify, pick your AI tool and paste the prompt.
The problem
Drip does not know who your best customers are
Your best Shopify customers deserve different email from first-time buyers, but Drip does not know who spent the most. Tagging them means filtering by spend, matching each email in Drip and adding the tag one at a time without subscribing anyone new.
Without PopdockAI
- Filter Shopify customers by lifetime spend
- Look up each email in Drip
- Add the tag one subscriber at a time
- Risk subscribing someone who was not on your list
With PopdockAI
- Customers at or above your spend are matched to active subscribers
- Anyone already tagged, unsubscribed or not in Drip is skipped
- You see spend, orders and current tags and confirm first
- No subscriber is created, and a sample is re-read to check
The prompt

**Objective:** Apply the Drip tag `{tag}` (default vip) to every active Drip subscriber whose Shopify customer record shows total-spent of at least `{min-spent}`.
**Step 1: Find the high-value Shopify customers**
Call `shopify-get-customer` with `total-spent.min` set to `{min-spent}` and `max-records` set to 100. Keep customers with an email.
**Step 2: Match them in Drip**
For each customer, call `drip-get-subscriber` with `email` set to the Shopify email. Keep only subscribers whose status is active. Skip anyone whose Drip tags already include `{tag}` (or vip).
**Step 3: Confirm**
Show the list to tag (email, Shopify name, total-spent, orders-count, current Drip tags) and counts of customers skipped because they are absent from Drip, unsubscribed or already tagged. Ask the user to confirm. Do not continue without a clear yes.
**Step 4: Tag them**
For each confirmed subscriber, call `drip-add-subscriber-tag` with `email` set to the email Drip returned and `tag` set to `{tag}` (or vip).
**Step 5: Verify and report**
Re-read a sample of up to 5 tagged people with `drip-get-subscriber` and confirm the tag is present. Report tagged, failed and skipped counts.
**Rules & Guidelines:**
* `shopify-get-customer` is on the shopify server; `drip-get-subscriber` and `drip-add-subscriber-tag` are on the drip server.
* `drip-add-subscriber-tag` is the only tool that may write, and only after Step 3's confirmation.
* Do NOT call `drip-add-subscriber`, `drip-remove-subscriber-tag`, `drip-add-subscriber-to-campaign` or `shopify-update-customer`. Never create a Drip subscriber here.
**Validation:**
* If no Shopify customers meet `{min-spent}`, say so and stop.
* `{min-spent}` is in the shop's currency; say which currency the report assumes.
* If Shopify returned exactly 100 customers, say the list may be truncated and suggest a higher `{min-spent}`.Who it's for
