One year with us, thank you

Marks a one-year customer anniversary with genuine gratitude before inviting them to share their longer-term experience.

A one-year anniversary is a built-in reason to reconnect, and a long-tenured customer carries unusual credibility when they speak up. This template works because it pairs milestone gratitude with a prompt for the kind of deeper, lived-in words that newer prospects find deeply reassuring. Take it, fire it on the anniversary date, and make it yours.

Subject
A year with {{product}}, {{name}}
Email body
Hi {{name}},

It has been a whole year since you joined {{product}}, and I just wanted to stop and say thank you. A year is a real vote of confidence.

If you have a moment to mark it, would you share what this year with {{product}} has been like, in your own words? What it helps you do now that it did not before. A few honest words are plenty, no perfect wording needed, and a quick video works beautifully too.

We are a small team, and hearing from someone who has been around a year carries real weight for the people just starting out. Thank you for the year, {{name}}.
{{sender_name}}
The placeholders

Swap these in for your own details

{{name}}The recipient's first name. Falls back to a friendly greeting if you do not have it.
{{product}}Your product, service, or business name.
{{sender_name}}Your name. It also becomes the From name and the reply-to address.
{{link}}The link to where they leave their words. It becomes the button in the email.
Why this one works

What makes this a good ask

  • Anniversary milestone gives a natural, warm reason to reach out
  • Long tenure adds credibility to the words you collect
  • Prompt about a year of use yields depth, not a quick blurb
  • Gratitude-led so the milestone feels celebrated
