What Are Drip Campaigns?

Drip campaigns are automated sequences of emails sent over time based on triggers or schedules. Unlike one-time campaigns, drip sequences deliver the right message at the right moment in the customer journey.

Think of them as your always-on sales and support team—nurturing relationships while you focus on building your business.

Always Working

Sequences run 24/7. Every subscriber gets the same experience, perfectly timed.

Personalized

Each subscriber starts their journey when they sign up. It’s personal, not mass.

Measurable

Track performance at each step. Identify and fix drop-off points.

Set & Improve

Build once, refine over time. Each iteration gets better results.

Common Drip Campaign Types

Templates that work for almost every business

Welcome Sequences

Introduce new subscribers to your brand and deliver immediate value. A well-crafted welcome sequence dramatically improves engagement.

  • Day 0: Welcome + set expectations
  • Day 1: Deliver lead magnet
  • Day 3: Share best content
  • Day 7: Soft pitch

Onboarding Sequences

Guide new users to their “aha moment"—the point where they truly understand your product’s value. Good onboarding reduces churn.

  • Step 1: Account setup complete
  • Step 2: First key action
  • Step 3: Power feature intro
  • Step 4: Success check-in

Re-engagement Campaigns

Win back inactive subscribers or users. Remind them why they signed up and what they’re missing.

  • Email 1: "We miss you”
  • Email 2: What’s new since you left
  • Email 3: Special offer
  • Email 4: Last chance

Post-Purchase Sequences

Continue the relationship after the sale. Reduce buyer’s remorse, encourage reviews, and set up repeat purchases.

  • Day 0: Thank you + tracking
  • Day 3: How to get the most out of it
  • Day 7: Request a review
  • Day 14: Related products
