Template FAQ

When should the first welcome email be sent?

The first welcome email should be sent immediately after signup or purchase — within minutes, not hours. Engagement is highest in the first 48 hours, and a delayed welcome email misses this critical window. Dewx sends welcome emails instantly upon trigger.

How many emails should a welcome sequence have?

A 4-6 email welcome sequence over 10-14 days is optimal. This template uses 4 emails at strategic intervals: immediate, Day 2, Day 5, and Day 10. Each serves a distinct purpose from warm greeting to product education to engagement check-in.

What makes a great welcome email?

A great welcome email is personal, sets clear expectations, delivers immediate value, and has one clear call-to-action. Avoid overwhelming new customers with everything at once. This template progressively introduces features and resources across the sequence.

Should I personalize welcome emails?

Absolutely. Personalized welcome emails generate 6x higher transaction rates than generic ones. At minimum, use the customer's first name and reference their specific plan or purchase. Dewx's AI can generate uniquely personalized welcome content at scale.
