Automated Laundry New Customer Welcome Emails
Every morning, WebRun opens Cents, finds customers who completed their first-ever order yesterday, drafts a warm welcome email with a return-visit offer in Mailchimp, and posts a new-customer summary to your Slack channel before any email is sent.

Questions, answered
Will it email new customers automatically?
No. Every welcome email is saved as a Mailchimp draft. WebRun never sends a campaign without your explicit approval.
What if a customer opted out of marketing?
It checks each customer's communication preferences in Cents before drafting. Opted-out customers are excluded and no draft is created for them.
Can the welcome offer be customised?
Yes. Set your preferred offer text (for example, a percentage discount or a free add-on) once during setup and WebRun will include it in every welcome draft.
