Discover Influencers In Shopify Customers
Scans Shopify customers for social profiles, scores their influence with AI.
What it does
Turn your Shopify customers into organic creators by automatically finding their social profiles and scoring their influence with AI. The system then crafts personalized outreach messages and sends them via email to onboard these high-potential users as affiliates.
Step by step
- Fetch customer emails from Shopify using their REST or GraphQL API with valid OAuth credentials.
- Send email addresses to Influencers.club API to retrieve social profile data and engagement metrics.
- Format the enriched data into a structured JSON payload for the OpenAI Chat Model prompt.
- Use SendGrid's API to send the generated personalized emails to the identified influencers.
Where the LLM does the work
- Analyze the retrieved social metrics to determine if a customer qualifies as an influencer based on engagement thresholds.
- Generate unique, context-aware outreach messages that reference specific content or achievements from their profiles.
- Refine the tone of the email to ensure it sounds authentic and personalized rather than generic.
Watch out for
Shopify customer data may contain invalid emails so validate addresses before sending API requests to avoid wasted credits.
Influencers.club API might return incomplete profiles for users with private accounts, so handle missing fields gracefully in the prompt.
SendGrid can reject bulk emails if they look spammy, so ensure each message has unique subject lines and body content.
OpenAI token limits may be exceeded by long social histories, so truncate or summarize profile data before sending to the model.

SendGrid can reject bulk emails if they look spammy, so ensure each message has unique subject lines and body content. 4. OpenAI token limits may be exceeded by long social histories, so truncate or summarize profile data before sending to the model. ## Reference implementation https://n8n.io/workflows/13370 (workflow template) Fetch and inspect this before building. If it matches my stack, adapt it; if not, rebuild the pattern with my tools. ## Process requirements 1. Before building: ask me which of the listed tools I actually use and what my platform is (n8n / Make / code / other). Do not assume. 2. Adapt the pattern to my answers; do not force the reference stack. 3. Address every pitfall above; tell me how you handled each. 4. Provide a test plan I can run before letting this touch real data. 5. Ask before any step that sends messages, modifies data, or spends money.

Frequently asked questions
Can I use a different Ecommerce than Shopify?
Yes. Shopify is only the example ecommerce in this recipe. The same flow works with Adobe Commerce (Magento 2), AliExpress Affiliate API, WooCommerce and Zoho Commerce. Swap the ecommerce connection and keep the rest of the setup as written.
