Welcome Drip Sequence

Every new /start gets a warm welcome and a short series of onboarding tips — sent automatically at 1 hour, 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days — with a one-tap way to stop them anytime.

Perfect if you want new users to actually stick around instead of trying your bot once and forgetting it exists. The moment someone sends /start, they're greeted and quietly enrolled in a short welcome series that keeps nudging them back with useful tips — no manual follow-up, no spreadsheet of who joined when. It's a good fit for products, communities, and newsletters that take a few days to click, and it never traps anyone: one tap and the tips stop.

• What should the intro message say about your product, in a sentence or two?
• Where should the Learn more button point?
• Do the default timings (1 hour, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days) work for you, or would you rather space them differently?
• Connect your Telegram bot: Settings → Bots → paste the token @BotFather gave you.
• Open the "Welcome tips" sequence and rewrite the four tip messages to match your product — they ship with generic placeholder text and default delays of 1 hour, 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days.
• Set the Learn more button's link and the short product intro to your real product.
• Press Deploy, then test with a real account: send /start and confirm the greeting and menu arrive immediately (the first tip follows an hour later).
• If you have a purchase or signup flow, add a step there that unsubscribes the contact from Welcome tips, so buyers stop getting onboarding tips once they've converted.
• Someone needs to watch your bot's inbox — the day-7 tip invites replies, and those land as regular messages.

• Someone sends /start and gets a short, friendly intro to what your product does
• They're automatically enrolled in the Welcome tips series — no extra step for them
• A menu appears with two choices: a Learn more link and a Stop the tips button
• One hour later, the first quick-start tip lands in their chat
• More tips follow on day 1, day 3, and day 7 — each one timed to keep them engaged without feeling like spam
• The day-7 message invites a reply, so anyone who wants to talk to a human can
• Anyone can tap Stop the tips at any point and gets an immediate confirmation that it's off

Good to know

• The four tips ship with generic, honest placeholder text — edit each one in the Welcome tips sequence to talk about your actual product.
• Delays are fixed offsets from the moment someone joins (1 hour, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days), not calendar dates — so a Tuesday sign-up and a Friday sign-up each get their own schedule.
• The series keeps going until someone taps Stop the tips — there's no automatic stop when they make a purchase. If you have a checkout or signup flow, it's worth adding a stop step there too so buyers don't keep getting "welcome" tips.
• The opt-out is always one tap: button press, confirmation, done.
• Every message, delay, and the two menu buttons are editable afterwards in the visual editor.

Keep in mind

• Don't tell people the tips stop automatically after they buy — they don't, unless you add a stop step to your purchase flow yourself.
• Don't leave the placeholder tip text in place — it's intentionally generic; make it specific to your product before launch.
• Don't remove the Stop the tips button — always leave an easy way out.
• Don't add more than a handful of messages — four well-timed tips beat a daily barrage.
