- Welcome Emails β Sent when users subscribe.
Detailed Explanation
Welcome emails are the first emails received by new subscribers after they sign up. They serve to greet the subscriber and set expectations for what type of content they will receive in future emails. A welcome email can help reinforce the decision of the subscriber to join your mailing list and can encourage them to engage further with your brand.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine walking into a new coffee shop for the first time. A barista greets you with a smile and offers you a free sample of their signature drink.
