Welcome Flow

Purpose:

This welcome flow was designed to introduce new subscribers to the brand, establish product trust, and encourage first-time purchases through educational and benefit-focused messaging.

Flow Diagrams

Flow Overview

Trigger

The flow is triggered when a customer is added to the email list. Re-entry is disabled to ensure subscribers only receive the welcome sequence once. A profile filter excludes customers who have already placed an order to maintain relevance and prioritize first-time customer acquisition.

Conditional Split

A conditional split checks whether the subscriber has placed an order since entering the flow. Subscribers who complete a purchase exit the remaining welcome sequence to prevent redundant promotional messaging and create a more relevant customer experience.

Sequence gradually addresses common customer concerns while positioning the stain remover bars as a simple and effective introduction to eco-friendly cleaning products.


Subject: Welcome to BunchaFarmers — Here’s 10% Off
Preview: Natural cleaning essentials, restocks, and subscriber-only offers.
Intent: Welcome new subscribers and encourage first purchase conversion with a 10% discount and product introduction.


Subject: Natural products should still work. Ours do.
Preview: See why 3,300+ Amazon reviewers made the switch.
Intent: Build trust through product performance messaging and customer proof


Subject: Change starts with something small

SQL Implementation

Step 1: Get all users who joined the email list

SELECT 
  s.customer_id,
  s.email,
  s.flow_start_date,
  COUNT(o.order_id) AS orders_since_flow_start
FROM subscribers s
LEFT JOIN orders o
  ON s.customer_id = o.customer_id
  AND o.order_date >= s.flow_start_date
GROUP BY 
  s.customer_id,
  s.email,
  s.flow_start_date;
  
Step 2: To find people who should exit after Welcome #1

SELECT 
  s.customer_id,
  s.email
FROM subscribers s
JOIN orders o
  ON s.customer_id = o.customer_id
WHERE o.order_date >= s.flow_start_date;

Step 3: To find people who should continue to Email #2 and #3

SELECT 
  s.customer_id,
  s.email
FROM subscribers s
LEFT JOIN orders o
  ON s.customer_id = o.customer_id
  AND o.order_date >= s.flow_start_date
WHERE o.order_id IS NULL;
