Write an Onboarding Email Sequence
Create a 7-email onboarding sequence that activates new users and reduces churn in the critical first 30 days.
The Prompt
Write a 7-email onboarding sequence for new users of the following product. Each email should: - Have a specific goal (activation step to complete) - Be sent at the right time (trigger-based or time-based) - Drive ONE action, not multiple - Be short (under 150 words) and skimmable Email sequence: 1. Welcome (immediately after signup): set expectations + first action 2. Day 1 if inactive: drive toward first key action 3. Day 3 activation: celebrate if active / nudge if not 4. Day 7 check-in: ask for feedback + share a tip 5. Day 14 feature education: introduce a high-value feature they haven't used 6. Day 21 social proof: customer story relevant to their use case 7. Day 30 milestone: celebrate progress + introduce upgrade path Product: [YOUR PRODUCT] First key activation action: [THE ONE THING NEW USERS MUST DO] Common early drop-off reason: [WHY PEOPLE DISENGAGE]
Example Output
Day 1 email (subject: 'Your first comparison is one click away') — 90-word email that acknowledges signup, explains the single action to complete (add your first API provider), provides a direct link to that specific step, and ends with 'It takes 60 seconds. Here's why it's worth it' with a one-line value statement.
