Your welcome email is often the first message a new subscriber receives, let’s make it count! You can set it up in Audience → Welcome Emails. This automation triggers automatically when someone joins your newsletter, and it’s a great moment to start building a connection.

​

Step 1: Add your first email

Create your first email just like you’d create a regular post. Once it’s ready, click Next to open the Settings panel. You’ll see the usual fields for Subject and Preview text, plus two extra options:

​

Delay

Define how long the system waits before sending the email after a new subscription. You can choose minutes, hours, or days. We recommend sending it immediately, that’s when it’s most likely to be opened.

​

Activate after saving

Enable this option to start sending the email automatically to every new subscriber. Turn it On only when you’re ready to go live.

​

Step 2: Add additional emails

You can set up to three welcome emails in total. Sending just one is also fine. Emails are automatically ordered by their delay. For example: If you change any delay, the order will update automatically to reflect the order your subscribers will receive them.
