Onboarding email

Onboarding emails greet new subscribers, often as a series, to create a positive rapport and market a company’s products and services. They’re great for teaching potential customers more about your brand.

Email marketing professionals should write onboarding emails, tailored to specific user interests and demographics and a convincing call-to-action (CTA).
