How do Welcome Emails work?

Welcome emails do so much more than thanking subscribers for signing up, it’s a chance to bring them into your world and turn them into engaged customers.

An amazing welcome email sets the tone for your subscribers’ relationship with your brand and, ultimately, inspires them to make a purchase.

Sending an automated welcome series is the fastest way to invest in your subscriber relationships and nurture them into loyal customers.

The best part? Once published, your welcome emails will automatically send to new subscribers after they sign up. You don’t need to hit send, you don’t even have to be awake—it just works.

So, what does this mean for your online store?

We’ve learned that Privy customers generate an average revenue of $33 per email captured.

Welcome emails help turn your newly interested subscribers into engaged customers. And engagement is the ultimate retention strategy.

Make a strong first impression through your welcome series and retain an engaged customer base that buys more often and spends more each time.

5 Reasons To Start Sending Privy Welcome Emails For Your Shopify Store Today

Turn your newest subscribers into loyal customers with an automated welcome email series

1. Welcome Emails Can Generate 3x More Revenue

While welcome emails tell your story and build trust with your subscribers, they also allow subscribers who are ready to buy from you ASAP to do so easily. It’s the best of both worlds.

2. You Only Get One Chance to Make a First Impression

74% of email subscribers expect a welcome email. Don’t simply deliver on that expectation—go above and beyond with a welcome email that really stands out. On average, welcome emails have an open rate of 91%. Use your welcome email as your time to shine.

3. Click-Through-Rates for Welcome Emails are 5x Higher

That means 5x the number of people are following the specific call-to-actions in welcome emails. That’s the beauty of email—by giving you their email address, subscribers expect to hear from you. Sending a welcome email is another way to profitably convert subscribers to customers in a way that subscribers want to be engaged.

4. Send On-Brand Emails Within Minutes

You’ve been sending emails your entire life. So you’re probably pretty good at it by this point. With our drag and drop email editor, we make customizing your welcome email even easier by matching your brand’s style down to the fonts and colors.

5. Build Brand Loyalty, Not Just One-Time Purchases

Inviting subscribers into your brand community is incredibly simple with welcome emails. Beyond developing a sense of community, welcome emails can provide readers with multiple opportunities to interact with your brand. Share blogs, best-sellers, how-tos—content that engages your subscribers and brings them back to your site.

Customize welcome emails for the ultimate sign up experience

There might be multiple ways subscribers can join your list. That’s smart marketing. Maybe they sign-up through a pop up on your homepage. Or maybe you grab their email on a specific product page. With Privy, you can create a welcome series that’s relevant to the experience your subscriber had on your site. Share the same welcome series with all your onsite sign-ups. Or tailor welcome series to specific onsite campaigns. It’s totally up to you what experience you want your subscribers to have. We just make it easy to deliver that experience.

Send a welcome series and tell a deeper story

Each brand story is unique. With Privy, you have the flexibility to create a series of welcome emails that bring your brand to life for your subscribers. Share your founder story, educate your subscribers on your products, promote your social communities. Whatever it is that makes your brand stand out, you can create a welcome series that includes all the important things your subscribers should know. Whether you have two emails in your series or 10, your welcome series will show your newest subscribers they made the right choice signing up for your list.

Welcome new subscribers, even if they make a purchase right away

Sometimes subscribers join your list and make a purchase all within their first visit to your site. Awesome, right? It’s subscribers like those that you especially want to thank for signing up. But some email autoresponders will un-enroll subscribers from your welcome series once they buy from your store. With Privy, your welcome series automatically delivers to new subscribers, regardless of whether or not they’ve made a purchase.

Easy drag and drop email editor

Creating well edited welcome emails that match your brand has never been easier. With Privy’s drag and drop editor, you can publish your welcome series within minutes. Customize your welcome series to match your brand, link to your social media accounts, and even pull in products directly from your Shopify catalog with the click of a button.
