Onboarding and Trial Alerts
Onboarding and Trial Alerts
Overview
SellerOps sends a series of automated emails during your onboarding and trial period. These keep you informed about your account status and help you get the most from your trial.
Onboarding Emails
Welcome Email
- Trigger: Account creation
- Content: Welcome to SellerOps, next steps to connect your TikTok Shop
This is the first email you receive. It includes a link to start the TikTok Shop connection process.
Shop Connected Email
- Trigger: TikTok OAuth authorization completed successfully
- Content: Confirms your store is connected and monitoring has begun
Once you authorize SellerOps to access your TikTok Shop, this email confirms the connection is live.
First Order Synced Email
- Trigger: SellerOps successfully pulls your first order from TikTok
- Content: Confirms monitoring is active and shows your current order count
This email means Watcher is actively tracking your orders. Deadline alerts will now fire as orders approach their dispatch deadlines.
Proof Moment (Activation)
After your initial order sync, SellerOps shows a “proof moment” page. This analyzes your last 14 days of orders and highlights what Watcher would have caught.
- Near-miss orders (shipped within 4 hours of the TikTok deadline)
- Total order value protected
- Average order value
Your Late Dispatch Rate (LDR), the percentage of orders shipped after the deadline, is calculated from this historical data. The proof moment demonstrates the value SellerOps provides from day one.
Trial Period Emails
During your 14-day trial, SellerOps sends reminders as your trial approaches its end date.

| T-5 Reminder | 5 days before trial ends | Trial users | Early notice. Subscribe to continue monitoring. |
| T-2 Reminder | 2 days before trial ends | Trial users | Urgent. Trial ending soon. |
| T-0 Notice | Day trial expires | Trial users | Trial ends today. Subscribe now to keep your alerts active. |
Template selection may vary based on your near-miss count during the trial. Guard keys (trial_reminder:{accountId}:{templateKey}:{dateKey}) prevent duplicate sends.
