The problem it solves

When someone signs up on your website, the moment to make a great first impression is right then, not two days later. Without an automatic welcome, new subscribers often go cold before you ever follow up.

Who it fits

An ecommerce store, SaaS company, or course creator wanting to convert new signups faster.

How it works

  1. Starts the moment someone submits your website signup form
  2. Adds the subscriber to your Mailchimp list
  3. Sends a personalized welcome email with a discount code through Gmail
  4. Still sends the welcome email even if the Mailchimp step fails
What you get

New signups who feel welcomed instantly

You give every new subscriber an instant, personalized welcome email with a discount code the moment they sign up on your site.

What you get

A subscriber added to your email list and a welcome email with a discount code delivered instantly.

What you need

A Mailchimp account and a Gmail account with API access.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
