Many of my clients have been focused on setting up and improving their drip campaigns or autoresponder email series, which can also be called “Follow up Sequences” in my favorite email manager, Infusion Soft.

People often ask me what should be in the first email that is sent after someone opts in to your email.

First, thank the person for being a part of your community.

Second, let them know what they will receive from you. Here are a few examples:

Hi Angela,

Another shout out to how Amy has set up her website: I just came across Amy Applebaum and I like how she has identified three distinct paths that people can work with her on her site. This makes it easy for her market to identify if they are her ideal market.
