Welcome Email Campaign

Make a strong first impression by automatically sending helpful information when a customer signs a waiver, makes a purchase, creates an account, etc. Welcome Email Campaigns allow you to share tips, instructions, general information, and what to do next while your brand is still fresh in their mind. You can also include vouchers, discount codes, and links to your website to check out other products like memberships, bookings, and more. These campaigns are highly effective because they engage new users right from the start, setting the tone for a great customer relationship.

Prerequisites:

Create email template(s) or SMS templates that include a warm greeting, onboarding instructions, optional vouchers or discount codes, and calls to action linking guests to your website for memberships and bookings.

Aluvii Customers See Strong Results from Welcome Email Campaigns

Operators who implement welcome email campaigns often see higher initial engagement, smoother customer onboarding, and increased early conversion rates. By combining a warm greeting with helpful resources and a special introductory incentive, operators can successfully guide new users toward their next booking or bounce-back purchase. When paired with built-in tracking in the Growth Marketing Module, you can clearly measure how many introductory purchases and return visits are driven by your welcome campaign. Here's how you can do it.

  1. First, we assume you already know how to create a campaign.
    • Campaign Format - You can either choose Email or SMS
    • Data Source -  Guest account
    • Subject Line: Keep it warm and welcoming. Examples include: “Welcome to {{BusinessName}}! 🎉 Here’s a Little Something to Get Started” or “We’re Thrilled to Have You – Check Out What’s Next!”
    • Email Sender:  Select one of your preconfigured email senders.
    • Campaign Channel:  Select the appropriate campaign type (e.g., General or Promotion).

  2. Next, create the Rules & Definition

    • Campaign Type:  Select On a Repeating Schedule.
    • Email Recipient:  Select Account Owner.
    • Email Template:  Select your welcome email template.
    • Discount Code: You will only have the option to modify this if you have added the discountcode merge tag on your email template. For more info and detailed steps, you can view this article: Discount Code Per-Recipient
  3. Next, set your schedule
  • Date & Time to Send Email: Send shortly after account creation (recommended: same day or 1 day after account created date).
