What are welcome series email campaigns?
A welcome email series is a sequence of emails that are automatically sent after a user has opted-in (subscribed to your email list). Usually this happens when they purchase a product or download a free resource.
It’s a marketing strategy that takes advantage of when your new dream customers are most excited. With their trust in your brand at an all-time high, it’s the perfect time to introduce yourself, show off your awesomeness and even incentivise them to buy again.
Why is a welcome sequence important?
Despite most businesses focussing on social media (64%) and websites (55%), studies have shown that email marketing dominates the digital marketing landscape. Hubspot’s 2021 study showed, in terms of return on investment (ROI), that email has a staggering 4,200% ROI. Crazily, social media comes in a distant 2nd with an estimated average of 28%.

Email marketing ROI – get proven results.
Email marketing can help you see real results with very little investment.
How is this possible?
With Facebook boasting over 1 billion active users, Twitter 255 million, it’s understandable to think social media is the most effective way to extend your brand’s reach.
On the other hand, in 2020, 306.4 billion emails were sent, and there are approximately 4 billion email users right this very second.
And the number is climbing.
If you think about it, it’s not that surprising. Every app, online shopping cart or subscription needs an email address. It has become the currency of the web; anybody who’s online has an active email address.
So when it comes to expanding your brand’s reach and boosting awareness, there’s no channel quite like email.

& there are roughly 4 billion email users right this very second.”
Re-incentivise, educate and engage your dream clients.
Sending an automated welcome email series <insert link to email marketing service page> is an easy way to greet new subscribers, build upon their trust in you, and introduce yourself.
We all want to keep our business as personalised as possible; no one’s a fan of generic emails.
The great thing about a welcome sequence is it’s entirely customisable, offering you a powerful way to introduce yourself to your dream customers without investing a large amount of time or effort.
On average, sending a series of welcome emails creates
51% more revenue than a single welcome email.
Tips and tricks for great email campaigns
Strategy First – Set Goals:
Before you get stuck into using our welcome email cheat sheet, you need to get clear on your goals. Typically when you welcome a new subscriber you allocate different goals to different emails in the sequence.
- Promotional
- Nurturing relationships
- Looking for feedback
- Educational
- Informational
- Awareness
“it doesn’t matter how optimised your emails are if you can’t see the results of your effort
– not to mention measure whether an email is helping you hit your goals.”
Email marketing goal examples:
- Customer Relationship Nurturing: While attracting new customers is essential, so is nurturing relationships with people who already trust you and are interested in your products.
- Upselling, Converting and Cross-sells: Customers who have bought before are more likely to do so again than people who have only just found your business. You can do so by upselling your services or directing your qualified leads towards other products.
- More information: Just because they have bought from you once doesn’t mean they’ve become your number 1 fan. By offering more info you build trust, your authority and develop long term customer relationships.
- Feedback to help improve your business: the best place to find out what people want is straight from the horse’s mouth. Collecting customer feedback shows you value their opinions and that they’re important to you. By asking your clients for feedback, you communicate that their views are important to you and used correctly, it can boost your business significantly.
Personalisation and Segmentation
You want your customer to feel like you’re talking to them specifically. While our email marketing cheat sheet will help you set up a fully automatable campaign and hash out all the fundamentals, it still needs to feel personal.
Personalisation:
Personalising the content of your emails is crucial to making your dream customers feel heard and seen.
- Include a first name in the subject line and email. Using your dream client’s name is a simple technique that creates trust and helps establish a long-term relationship.
- Use their known data to wish them a happy birthday and a discount. This excellent opportunity to offer a highly personalised message along with a personalised offer.
Segmentation:
As email marketing platforms become more adept at collecting data and gaining insights on your dream customers, sending the right content to the right individual becomes easier.
With an intelligent email marketing platform, you’ll be able to set and forget email campaigns and send each contact the email most relevant for them.
Of course, to do this, you’ll need specific tools:
- Dynamic content: This will replace static copy, change it for whether they’re a boy or a girl, or even something as simple as including their name.
- Engagement scoring: further segmenting your contacts by how they engage with your brand. For example, you can include an early CTA, like a promotional offer, in your initial welcome series email. You can segment based on whether or not they took advantage of it.
- Behaviour-based triggers: sending emails to contacts based on their behaviour.
