From $0 to $2K: How Checkmate's Performance Network Drove More Incremental Revenue for Sijo Than Black Crow

Sijo, a premium bedding and home essentials brand, was running Black Crow as part of its retention strategy and wanted to know if Checkmate's Performance Network could push further. To find out, they layered in Checkmate's Identity Resolution tool (a lever within the Network) and put the two side by side.   The result: Checkmate identified 4x more shoppers, drove 2x the abandon flow revenue, and delivered measurable incremental sales across app, cashback, email, and SMS. Black Crow generated zero.

Challenge

Sijo had been using Black Crow primarily as a Meta persona and dynamic landing page driver. As demand scaled, the team wanted to expand beyond profile upkeep and unlock incremental growth by converting shoppers they weren't already capturing.

To evaluate, Sijo trialed Checkmate's Identity Resolution tool alongside Black Crow - and intentionally placed Checkmate as the lowest-priority source within the email flow hierarchy. Even deprioritized, Checkmate quickly outpaced Black Crow on every metric.

Sijo wanted to:

Expand reach to new shoppers beyond the existing audience
Convert more traffic from existing marketing efforts
Improve revenue efficiency as demand scaled
Drive more abandon flow performance from existing traffic

In a retention stack already doing its job, Sijo needed something built for growth.

Solution

Within minutes, Sijo was live on the Checkmate Network - 100M+ verified shoppers plugged into existing Klaviyo and paid workflows. No heavy lift, no operational drag.

First-party data flowed directly into Klaviyo abandon and lifecycle programs, while enriched segments synced into Meta for stronger paid performance. After the trial, Sijo made Checkmate their primary campaigns channel.

Impact

Within the 7-week test window, even from the lowest-priority position in the stack, Checkmate drove 2x native email flow revenue. During the same period, Black Crow generated no incremental revenue from abandon flows.

The mechanics: Checkmate identified more shoppers, triggered more flows, and compounded value across app, cashback, ads, email, and SMS - turning anonymous traffic into identifiable, convertible buyers.

Checkmate delivered:

4x more shoppers identified
2x abandon flow revenue (from lowest-priority position)
Improved ROAS through better identity coverage
Lower CAC, stronger LTV through deeper lifecycle engagement
Cross-channel compounding across retention and acquisition

Where Black Crow preserved existing reach, Checkmate expanded it - and translated that directly into measurable incremental revenue.
