Every email campaign needs a proper welcome series in place. This series of automated emails is the first few communications you have with your leads. They are important for making a great impression. As well, your first few emails you send to any email list are often the most opened and clicked on.
This is because when people first opt-in to an email list, they are the most engaged and ready to buy. Because of this, it’s crucial you build a strong relationship with them from the start. Make sure you have a clear cut welcome email series that’s between 5-7 emails long.
This series of emails should do that following…
- Illustrate what your products and services provide
- Build a bond or trust with your audience

Nurturing content is any content that…
- Entertains – Storytelling, Funny Videos, Parodies, Music Videos, etc…
- Entices – Deals, Discounts, Guarantees, Offers, etc…
- Educates – How To, Guides, Walkthroughs, Social Proof, etc…
Because these 3 kinds of email content are what fundamentally can build a relationship and trust with your audience quickly. So make sure any content you produce serves one of these 3 functions.
3. Deadline Sequence Emails

This creates a frame of though in your leads that signals them that if they are interested in what you’re offering, they must buy now or lose out.
4. Storytelling Email Content
