You even got a welcome email template to follow along.
Today, we’ll be looking at welcome email examples from top blogging experts and learn from the pros!

When I first started out
At the beginning, I didn’t really give much thought to my welcome email. It was just a welcome email that I sent out to all my subscribers, you know, just because I had to.
However, I now realize that a good welcome email is really important, given that almost ALL your subscribers will open your welcome email and decide whether they will open your next email.
Following the welcome email template I provided in the last post is a great starting point – but today, we’ll be diving into specific welcome email examples so that you’ll learn nifty tricks from a wide variety of experts.
We’ll look at 10 top experts and “spy” into how their welcome emails are like!
Are you ready?
