We’re digging back into the AKNF archive for this classic session of Retention Bootcamp. In this episode, Jordan and Eric break down the welcome experience, from merchandising to education to lifestyle content, and show you how to craft a sequence that drives first purchases, shortens time-to-buy, and boosts 30-day purchase rates.

If you’ve been leaning too hard on coupons or sending “one and done” welcomes, this replay will give you a proven framework for building sequences that actually sell.
