You’ve built a great product, but users keep dropping off before they see its value? I’ve been there. At times, even a great in-app onboarding flow isn’t enough. Some users forget to come back. Others never make it to activation. That’s where an onboarding email sequence comes in. An effective sequence can re-engage users and help them hit the first milestone faster.

User onboarding is not a one-person job. All teams (including my own, i.e., product teams) have to be involved in the process from start to end.
