Goal

Welcome and onboard new buyers. After a customer buys, they enter the honeymoon period with your company. Cement the relationship, ward off second thoughts, lay the groundwork for a positive experience, and gain referrals or endorsements.

Approach

Make your customer feel welcome and feel your presence, send a welcome package through the mail. It will get noticed, can be shared, and will serve as a reminder of the new relationship. During this campaign, validate the choice the customer made, and provide easy, clear onboarding information.
