A Welcome Email in email marketing is the first message sent to new subscribers who have just signed up for a newsletter, service, or product. It’s a way to greet them, confirm their subscription, and often provide a warm introduction to your brand. Welcome emails usually thank the subscriber for joining to encourage further engagement.
