Build your first Welcome Message


Why Welcome message?

Welcome message has a great impact on how users perceive your application - you can set up a very friendly and human tone of conversation. On top of that - it is really easy to create one with Usetiful!

Benefits:
  • Introduce your product from human perspective and let users know you appreciate them
  • Activate your users with call-to-action 
  • Get your Usetiful ready for more complex opportunities

Build the modal

  1. In the Overview menu, click on "Add tour"

  2. Tour name - Give your Welcome message a name so you can find it later

  3. Let's keep it simple - page targeting should remain "All pages", trigger should remain to "Launch automatically". You can change these settings anytime later. Click "Continue".

  4. Usetiful creates the first example modal for you. Click inside of the modal and update the content! Pro tip: Include pictures or video!
