I believe the followup is crucial to creating active affiliates. When someone first signs up as a new affiliate, they are bombarded with emails. By sending an initial contact email, sometimes this can get lost in the new affiliates inbox.
If the followup is sent out between 2 - 4 days after an affiliate signs up, the odds of them reading the email are higher.
This also gives the new affiliate a chance to learn a little about SFI prior to help being offered by their sponsor. All too often sponsors will email new affiliates straight away letting them know to contact them with any questions. Most new affiliates will not even know what questions to ask for a few days.
If you can remember your first few days with SFI, there's so much information being sent to you it's very easy to forget about an email from a sponsor. But by sending a welcome after they've had some time to digest SFI, I believe it's much more beneficial to the affiliate then.
