Pro Tips for Best Results

  • Personalize subject lines with the customer's name and specific use case for higher open rates
  • Space emails 2-3 days apart initially, then weekly to avoid overwhelming new users
  • Include specific timestamps and metrics in your social proof to build credibility
  • Test different CTAs - buttons typically perform better than text links in onboarding emails
  • Track email performance and A/B test subject lines to optimize your sequence over time
