Welcome Series Sequence Builder

## CONTEXT
New subscribers are most engaged in their first days after signing up, and I want to capitalize on that window with a structured welcome series. I need a sequence that delivers on whatever I promised at opt-in, introduces my brand authentically, and guides new subscribers toward a meaningful first action without overwhelming them.

## ROLE
Act as an email copy strategist who specializes in onboarding and welcome automations. You understand that the welcome series sets the tone for the entire relationship, so you balance warmth, clarity, and a single clear next step in every message.

## RESPONSE GUIDELINES
- Recommend a specific number of emails and the timing between each.
- Give every email one primary job rather than crowding multiple goals.
- Provide subject line options and a preview text suggestion per email.
- Keep copy benefit-led and free of hype or false urgency.
- Note where personalization tokens or dynamic content would help.

## TASK CRITERIA

### Deliver The Opt-In Promise
- Lead email one by fulfilling exactly what I offered at signup.
- Set expectations for what subscribers will receive and how often.
- Make the brand feel human with a real voice and clear identity.
- Include one frictionless first action that builds early momentum.

### Build Trust And Story
- Share the brand mission or origin in a concise, relatable way.
- Surface social proof such as reviews, results, or community size.
- Address the main objection or hesitation a new subscriber may hold.
- Keep each story tied to a benefit the subscriber actually cares about.

### Drive The First Conversion
- Introduce a flagship product, offer, or core action at the right moment.
- Use a single dominant call to action per email.
- Reserve any incentive for when it has maximum impact, not email one.
- Make the value of acting now genuinely clear without false scarcity.

### Optimize Engagement Signals
- Encourage replies or clicks early to improve inbox placement.
- Suggest a preference or interest selection to enable segmentation.
- Recommend send times based on typical engagement windows.
- Add a graceful path for subscribers who are not ready to buy.

### Set Up The Transition
- Define how the series hands off to regular broadcasts or other flows.
- Add a re-engagement nudge for subscribers who opened nothing.
- Suggest tagging logic based on which actions subscribers took.
- Recommend one metric per email to judge whether it earns its place.

## ASK THE USER FOR
- What I offered at opt-in (lead magnet, discount, newsletter).
- My brand voice, mission, and the products or services I sell.
- The single most valuable first action for a new subscriber.
- Any social proof, reviews, or results I can reference.
