What Is an Email Welcome Sequence?
An email welcome sequence is a series of emails that are automatically sent to new subscribers after they sign up for your email list. The purpose of a welcome sequence is to introduce yourself, build rapport, and make a good first impression with your new subscribers.
A typical welcome sequence is made up of 3-5 emails, and is sent over the course of a week or two. The first email in the sequence is usually an introductory email, followed by 1-2 emails that provide more information about your business and what your subscribers can expect from being on your list. The last email in the sequence is typically a CTA (call-to-action) email, inviting your subscribers to take some sort of action, such as signing up for a free trial or downloading a free eBook.
Welcome sequences are an excellent way to nurture your new subscribers and turn them into loyal fans and customers. If you’re not already using a welcome sequence, now is the time to start!
How to Set Up an Evergreen Welcome Sequence
If you’re new to ConvertKit, or email marketing in general, you might be wondering how to set up an automated welcome sequence. Here’s a quick guide to get you started!
First, create a new sequence in your ConvertKit account. Give it a name and description, then choose the “Evergreen” option.
Next, add a series of emails to your sequence. You can use our pre-made templates, or create your own from scratch. Just make sure each email has a clear purpose and Call-to-Action (CTA).
Once you’re happy with your sequence, it’s time to set up the automation. In the “Automation” tab of your sequence, choose the “Welcome Sequence” trigger. This will send your first email as soon as someone subscribes to your list.
And that’s it! You’ve now created an automated welcome sequence that will help engage and convert your new subscribers into loyal fans!
Getting Subscribers into Your Welcome Sequence
The first step to getting subscribers into your welcome sequence is to create a signup form. You can do this by going to the Forms tab in your ConvertKit account and clicking the “Add New Form” button.
Once you’ve created your signup form, you’ll need to add it to your website. The easiest way to do this is to use the ConvertKit WordPress plugin. Simply install the plugin and then add the form to any page or post on your site.
If you’re not using WordPress, you can still add your signup form to your website by copying and pasting the code that ConvertKit provides. Once you’ve added the code to your site, anyone who fills out the form will be automatically added to your welcome sequence.
Now that you have a signup form on your website, it’s time to start building out your welcome sequence. To do this, go to the Sequences tab in ConvertKit and click the “Create Sequence” button.
On the next page, you’ll need to give your sequence a name and description. Then, click the “Add Email” button to start adding content to your first email.
In the email editor, you can add whatever kind of content you want. Just keep in mind that every email in your welcome sequence should aim to build rapport, trust, and credibility with your subscribers. Once you’re happy with your email, click the “Save & Exit” button.
Customizing an Opt-In Form
Welcome new subscribers to your ConvertKit account with an automated email sequence! You can customize your opt-in form to match your brand, and set up your sequence so that new subscribers automatically receive a series of welcome emails. In this article, we’ll show you how to create an automated email welcome sequence in ConvertKit.
First, log in to your ConvertKit account and go to the Forms tab. On the Forms page, click the “New Form” button.
Give your form a name, then select a template from the “Choose a Template” drop-down menu. The templates are designed to be mobile-responsive, so they’ll look great on all devices.
Once you’ve selected a template, it’s time to start customizing your opt-in form! You can add or edit the form fields, change the font and color scheme, add a logo or background image, and more. When you’re finished customizing your form, click the “Save” button.
Now that your opt-in form is complete, it’s time to set up your automated email sequence! To do this, go to the Sequences tab and click the “New Sequence” button.
On the next page, give your sequence a name and description. Then, under “Sequence Type”, select “Automated”.
Now it’s time to add some emails to your sequence! To do this, click the “Add Email” button. On
Customizing a Landing Page
If you’re using ConvertKit to create an automated email welcome sequence, you can customize your landing page to match the look and feel of your brand. To do this, go to theLanding Pages tab in your account and click on the button for “Customize This Page.”
This will open up the page editor, where you can change the background image, add your own logo, and modify the text to match your brand voice. Once you’re happy with your changes, click on the “Save” button at the top of the page.
Now when people visit your landing page, they’ll see a page that looks like it was made just for them!
How to Build Your Welcome Sequence
Assuming you’re starting from scratch, the first thing you need to do is create an opt-in freebie. This is the lead magnet that will entice people to sign up for your email list. Once you have your opt-in freebie, you need to create a landing page to host it. A landing page is a standalone web page that has one purpose: to get people to sign up for your email list.
Once you have your opt-in freebie and landing page set up, it’s time to create your welcome sequence. A welcome sequence is a series of emails that are automatically sent to new subscribers after they sign up for your email list. The goal of a welcome sequence is twofold: first, to introduce yourself and build rapport with your new subscriber, and second, to show them the value of being on your email list by delivering great content that they can’t get anywhere else.
Creating a welcome sequence in ConvertKit is easy. First, head over to the Sequences tab and click “Create Sequence.” Then, give your sequence a name and description, and select the type of sequence you want to create: either an automated or broadcast sequence. Automated sequences are sent out automatically based on certain criteria that you set (for example, when someone subscribes to a specific form), whereas broadcast sequences are manually triggered by you (for example, when you want to announce a new product launch).
