A 14-day automated email sequence designed to convert free trial users into paying customers. Includes welcome email, feature highlight drips, case study delivery, objection handling, and urgency-based closing emails with A/B test variants. The sequence is built around the activation curve, not the calendar: email 1 lands within the first hour while motivation is highest, emails 2–3 push the user toward their first 'aha' action, emails 4–5 deliver social proof once they have seen the product work, and emails 6–7 convert engaged users with a deadline and a clear pricing recap. Every email includes a plain-text variant, a recommended send window, and a note on which behavioral trigger should suppress it — for example, the feature-highlight email skips users who already activated that feature. The PDF guide maps each email to the trial-day timeline so your marketing automation team can rebuild it in any tool in an afternoon.
The Problem This Solves
Most SaaS companies convert less than 5% of free trial users. Without a structured sequence, users forget about the product before the trial ends.
Who It's For
SaaS product-led growth teams, marketing automation managers, and growth hackers.
