The Flow
Email 1/Day 0 - Immediately
Introduce yourself (e.g. “Thanks for stopping by the site”), make an offer. Explain how your brand is different. Try to humanize your brand, if possible, with casual photographs of you around the office.
Email 2/Day 1 - 6 to 24 hours later
Send your offer again and remind them! Send your “best sellers” and “best-of” content
Email 3/Day 2 - 24 hours later
Send another value-loaded piece of content. Really position yourself and/or your brand as an expert in your field; give away the single best tip or trick you have.
Unsubscribe all Non-Openers at this point but keep the rest in the flow
Email 4/Day 3 - 24 hours later
Send another value-loaded piece of content. Let others validate your brand by showing your customers testimonials and reviews!
Email 5/Day 4 - 24 hours later
Create a “Limited-Time” offer and wrap up your sequence.
Evergreen - After the Series
If and only if they interacted with your series (clicks OR opens), put them into your normal email marketing! They like you, and they know you. Just keep the conversation open.
