Hi {{firstName}},
Welcome to {{community}}. The 60-second orientation:
- #intros — drop a 3-line intro. Most new members lurk; the ones who post in #intros usually stick around.
- #help — ask anything.
- #wins — share your work.
That's the core. Other channels exist; you'll find them when you need them.
— {{senderName}}Hi {{firstName}},
Three threads happening right now that might be your speed:
1. [{{thread1}}]({{thread1URL}})
2. [{{thread2}}]({{thread2URL}})
3. [{{thread3}}]({{thread3URL}})
Lurking is fine. But the people who get the most out of {{community}} contribute one comment a week, average.
— {{senderName}}Hi {{firstName}},
You joined {{community}} for a reason. If you've already gotten it, great — nothing to do.
If not, the fastest way to get unstuck: post your specific question in #help. Format that gets answered: "I'm trying to {{goal}}, I tried {{thing}}, I expected {{expectation}}, I got {{result}}."
— {{senderName}}Hi {{firstName}},
Three weeks in. If {{community}} has been useful, the single thing that helps us most: invite one person who'd fit.
Not an ask for many — one. The right one. If no one comes to mind, no worries.
— {{senderName}}Communities die from one-way welcome funnels. A multi-step welcome that prompts the new member to actually post (introductions, asking a question, sharing work) is what makes the community feel like a community. Avoid generic 'check out the rules' welcomes — point at one specific channel and one specific action.
