What is a drip campaign?
An automated email
marketing campaign that
sends a number of emails
to a prospect over a
period of time
Why Email Drip?
• “No” is usually “No, not right now”
• Need a way to be at the top of mind when the
“No” becomes a “Yes”
• It is difficult to time it perfectly so that you are in
front of your prospect exactly when they need
you
• It is also difficult to share all the information that
you want to communicate at one time
