Post-Signup & Post-Purchase Flow Prompt
Prompt
Design an onboarding flow after conversion. Conversion type: [free trial / purchase / demo booked / newsletter] Product: [describe] Flow goal: [what should happen in first 7 days?] Today's reality: [what happens after someone converts?] Biggest drop-off: [where do people disengage earliest?] Please design: 1. Day-by-day flow for first 7 days 2. Email 1: immediately after conversion (subject + body) 3. Email 2: Day 2-3 (educational or activation) 4. Email 3: Day 5-7 (social proof or feature highlight) 5. The success milestone that signals someone is 'activated'
Why it works
Asking for a day-by-day 7-day flow rather than a generic sequence produces a specific activation timeline that can be directly implemented in an email or in-product tool. Including 'today's reality' forces an honest assessment of the gap between current and ideal, which prevents the AI from designing a perfect-world flow that ignores existing constraints. The 'biggest drop-off' input focuses the design on the highest-leverage intervention.
Watch out for
Onboarding flow design requires knowledge of your actual user behaviour — the AI will design a logical sequence but cannot know where users actually disengage without analytics data. Run this prompt after reviewing your onboarding analytics so you can give the AI real drop-off signals rather than assumptions about user behaviour.
