The Proven 5-Step Email Flow I Add to Every Website I Build
Why This Flow Works:
Every site I build has one job: turn traffic into something.
Sales, sign-ups, demo requests — but too many brands stop at “Visit Complete.”
This 5-step email flow changes that.
It’s designed to:
Capture visitors when they’re most engaged
Keep momentum going across 10 days
Convert quiet sign-ups into real results
It’s the same framework that helped one client 4× their opt-ins, boost first-sale revenue by 31%, and cut support tickets dramatically — all from a few strategic emails.
Day 0 — Welcome & Deliver Value Instantly
Timing: Within 60 seconds of sign-up
Your first email is the most opened — make it count.
Confirm they’re in
Instantly deliver what they signed up for (checklist, lead magnet, demo link)
Keep it short. Include ONE CTA — ideally to a blog, demo, or product page
💡 This is your hook. If they bounce now, you’ve lost them forever.
Day 2 — Problem → Story → Solution
This is your trust-builder. Tell a real story.
Start with a relatable pain your client’s audience faces
Walk them through the “before → after”
Explain how your client’s product/service helped
Close with a soft CTA: “Hit reply if this sounds familiar.”
📖 People don’t buy products. They buy stories they recognise themselves in.
Day 4 — Teach One High-Leverage Insight
Don’t sell here. Share something useful.
A small mistake you see all the time
A mini case study
A quick tactic that works
Bonus: include a visual (chart, screenshot, mockup)
📌 Example:
“Most brands ask for name, email, phone, and company size. We dropped to just one field — and conversion doubled overnight.”
This frames your client as the expert — not the salesperson.
Day 7 — Make the Offer (With Proof)
This is the ask — but done right.
What result are you promising?
Who else got that result? (social proof)
Why now? (create urgency)
Keep the CTA simple: “Book a free audit” or “Reply to claim this offer”
🧠 Pro Tip:
Add a P.S. with a tight summary of the offer — for the skimmers.
Day 10 — Reminder + FOMO Nudge
Final call. Don’t let them forget.
Reinforce what they’ll gain
Mention that time or availability is limited
Clearly repeat the offer from Day 7
Remind them why this matters
🔥 Example:
“Most visitors don’t buy the first time. But with a smart follow-up? They come back — and convert.
