Member Onboarding Message Sequence for a New Community
Welcome new members and help them take a first step.
Added October 15, 2026. Written with AI assistance and checked for clarity and placeholders; not reviewed by a lawyer, accountant, clinician or other professional. How these prompts are made
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
[VERIFY] is an editorial flag, not a blank to fill. Wherever the prompt shows [VERIFY], check that item against a reliable source before you use it (what [VERIFY] means).
Write a welcome sequence for new members of [COMMUNITY_NAME]. Purpose of the community: [PURPOSE]. Rules and norms: [NORMS]. First actions we want: [FIRST_ACTIONS]. Channels: [CHANNELS]. Draft four messages: an immediate welcome (under 80 words) with one clear step, a day-2 message pointing to the rules and the best place to ask a question, a day-5 message inviting a small contribution (an introduction or a reply), and a day-14 message asking what is helpful and what is missing. Add subject lines, personalisation points, a plan for quiet members, and a tracking table (joined, first post, replies) with the arithmetic for activation rate. Respect consent and opt-out rules [VERIFY]. Add the full text of the welcome message (about 70 words) and the day-5 prompt, plus a worked activation calculation: 120 joined, 42 posted or replied within 14 days, so activation is 35 percent. Suggest an experiment to compare a personal message from a moderator with the automated one, and what not to send (long rules lists in the first message).
