Introduction
Announcing our new and improved system emails! We have made some crucial improvements in our email design and messaging to motivate users to take action, including:
An updated email template design
The time emails are sent is now based on the user's location to optimize open rates
Content for four crucial emails
Why it matters: For many users, customized system emails provide critical nudges that can lead to higher matching rates and mentorship engagement levels.
The following four crucial emails nudge participants to complete two important steps:
Requesting a mentor (in self-match programs)
Scheduling the first meeting
Requesting a Mentor
In self-match programs, mentees can review mentor matches and send requests to start a mentorship. The first update was made to a system email that reminds mentees to request a mentor.
If they have not sent a request 3 days after joining the program, they are sent an email reminding them it's their turn to send a request. Another reminder is sent on day 10.

Schedule First Meeting
The first meeting is an essential step in every mentorship. These updated system emails nudge mentors and mentees to schedule the first meeting if they haven't in the early days of their mentorship.
