With that, comes a vast userbase to continuously remain engaged even during periods where product release may be slower. However, their sheer amount of modules and working sites ensures that something profitable is generally always able to be checked out. Stellar allows for product customization meaning user can entirely customize their setup down to the specific colorway and SKU. Therefore, one of the aims they came to Ascension with was email newsletters to keep users engaged with ongoing activity. Additionally, with the number of members joining and occasionally even canceling, we were contacted to set up email automation for new joiners and cancelling members.

For the welcome email automation, we provided a warm welcome to new Stellar users and information on the best tips for successes in using the Stellar software. Here were the practices that resulted in the best possible results for Stellar AIO
Professional Design: Consistent font and color schemes, clearly visible and clickable buttons, divided sections, and Stellar relevant signage gave the emails a sleek, clean feel. We took no shortcuts in ensuring that the Stellar brand was preserved throughout.
Attractive discounts: Join back customers were offered a sizeable discount of up to 40% to join back on Stellar AIO membership.

Upcoming Drop Information: Part of the email planning was directed towards informing users both past and current of upcoming drops in which they could utilize Stellar AIO for a better chance of success.
