If you read our last piece, you’ll know the gap: Klaviyo drives people to your website, but once they land, most brands leave the experience to chance. Anonymous visitors get treated like strangers, and the website does nothing to reflect what got them there in the first place.
The obvious next question is practical: how do you actually close that gap without a re-platform, without months of dev time, and without touching the setup you’ve already invested in?
The answer is website personalisation added alongside Klaviyo, not instead of it. Here’s what that looks like when it’s done properly.
What “adding to the stack” means in practice
Nothing about your Klaviyo setup changes. Your flows keep running, your segments keep firing, your SMS campaigns keep going out exactly as they do today.
Website personalisation isn’t a replacement for any of that – it’s a separate layer that sits on your website and picks up the moment a visitor lands, whether Klaviyo has identified them yet or not.
That’s the stack, not switch principle: rather than asking your email tool to do a job it wasn’t built for, you add a tool built specifically for the website itself. Klaviyo owns the inbox and the phone. Personalisation owns the page.
Where it plugs in
Think of the customer journey as a handover. Klaviyo does the work of getting someone to click – a flow, a campaign, an SMS.
The moment they land on your site, that job is done, and something else needs to take over immediately, because that’s the only moment you have their full attention.Website personalisation plugs in exactly at that handover point.
It doesn’t need someone to have opened a specific email or clicked a specific link to work, it starts from the first page view, using whatever context it has (referral source, browsing behaviour, returning vs new visitor) to shape what that person sees next. The email’s job and the website’s job happen one after another, not in competition with each other.
What implementation actually looks like
This is usually where the hesitation creeps in. Adding another tool sounds like another integration, another dev ticket, another few months on the roadmap.
In practice, it isn’t. Spotler Activate sits on top of your existing site without a rebuild – a single script, similar to how you’d add most tracking or personalisation tools – with no changes required to your Klaviyo setup, your theme, or your checkout.
Because it’s built for marketers rather than developers, the team who understands the customer is the same team building and launching the personalisation. No ticket, no queue, no waiting on a sprint.
Most brands are live within two weeks of starting, which matters if you’re weighing this up against a specific date on the calendar, like Black Friday, rather than treating it as a someday project.
Same stack, one more layer
You don’t need to overhaul anything to close this gap. You need Klaviyo to keep doing what it does well, and something else to pick up the moment a visitor lands on your site.
