Membership Welcome Sequence

What This Guide Covers

  • How to build a short onboarding sequence for new members instead of a single welcome email that gets forgotten
  • How to use Claude to write each message in the sequence, spaced out over a new member's first few weeks
  • How to make sure the sequence actually gets them to their first class, not just welcomes them in theory

Why This Matters

The first two weeks of a new membership are when most cancellations quietly get decided. A short sequence spread across the first few weeks does more of the actual work than a single welcome email.

Case Study

Solace Yoga Loft

Solace Yoga Loft replaced a single automated welcome email with a three message sequence, a welcome and booking prompt on day one, a check-in after the first class, and a light nudge toward a second booking if none had happened within a week.

Result: New members were noticeably more likely to attend a second class within their first month.
