"Create a 5-email onboarding sequence for new SaaS trial users.
Email 1: Welcome + what to do first (send immediately)
Email 2: Key feature highlight (day 2)
Email 3: Use case / success story (day 4)
Email 4: Check-in + support offer (day 7)
Email 5: Upgrade prompt (day 12)"
Nitrosend builds the sequence, timing, and sends — no manual setup in a dashboard.
"Send a password reset email to user@example.com with a reset link valid for 1 hour."
"Create a re-engagement campaign for subscribers who haven't opened in 90 days.
Subject line variants: [A] 'We miss you', [B] 'Still interested in [topic]?'
Test both, send winner to remaining list after 4 hours."
"Show me open rates, click rates, and unsubscribes for the onboarding sequence."
"Import this CSV of 2,000 subscribers from our Mailchimp export."
Nitrosend handles this automatically on signup:
- DKIM signing
- SPF record configuration
- DMARC policy
- Dedicated IP provisioning (Pro+)
- IP warmup schedule
For BYO plan users: bring your own SendGrid, Postmark, SES, or Resend account and Nitrosend routes through your infrastructure.
