Episode notes
Focus Your Welcome Email On One Action
- Simplify the welcome flow and prioritize one clear action: get a reply to the welcome email.
- Move secondary asks (book sale, posts) into follow-ups to avoid overwhelming new subscribers.
Avoid Post-Signup Distractions During Confirmation
- If you use double opt-in, avoid distracting the subscriber from confirming by sending product pitches on the redirect page.
- Use a post-confirmation page for offers or show it only after confirmation to protect conversions.
Ask One Simple Question And Model The Reply
- Use a single, simple reply prompt in your welcome email and show your own answer as a model.
- Put the reply call-to-action again in the PS and include an image of your favorite card to boost replies and trust.
