What is a Welcome Email?

A welcome email is the first message sent to a customer after they register their email address with your store.
Customers typically register their email address during membership sign-up at checkout or when subscribing to a newsletter.
It serves as the first point of communication with the customer and greatly influences the first impression of your company or brand.
Sending a welcome email as soon as possible after email registration helps create a positive impression.
With StoreCRM, a welcome email can be sent automatically just one minute after email registration.
To send a welcome email, you must be subscribed to the Standard Plan or higher in StoreCRM.

What to Include in a Welcome Email

Subject Lines and Design for Welcome Emails

Subject lines like “Get a special gift with your registration!”, “[Limited Time Offer]Coupon you can use right now,” or “A special gift just for you, [Name]” are effective. Including benefits, urgency, and personalization helps encourage email opens.
Design your email to be easy to navigate and read.
Place clear and visible call-to-action (CTA) buttons to guide user behavior.

Welcome Email Example

Subject: Thank You for Registering with [Store Name]! Enjoy Your [Benefit] Right Away!
