This is a mix between autoresponder systems (like https://xenforo.com/community/resources/conversation-essentials.275/ by @Xon and https://xenforo.com/community/resources/conversation-auto-responder.4583/ by @lol768 ), new user notifications (https://xenforo.com/community/resources/nuns-new-user-notification-system.844/ by @ragtek ), extra user criteria ( https://xenforo.com/community/resources/cta-criteria.3006/ by @Brogan ), the Inactive User Mail notifier (https://xenforo.com/community/resources/inactive-user-mail-notifier.517/ by @ragtek ) and the "Message Users" system included at Xenforo.

AT THE MOMENT:
I send a "huge" first Welcome PM with lots of Calls to Action: link to a "how to start" thread, read the forum guidelines, follow us on facebook& twitter, share the forum with their friends, introduce yourself, add your custom avatar...
Result: almost nobody reads the whole PM.

IDEA:
To send automatic PMs to new members based on certain criteria.
Do not send them altogether, but making like a "sales funnel" and send a different PM each week.

Examples:
Day 0: as they register they got a normal "Welcome PM": link to "how to start" thread and forum guidelines.
Day 7 (or custom):
if no post at "Presentations subforum" ( https://xenforo.com/community/resou...ies-and-notices-criteria-themescorp-com.4455/ by @Allan ) = Hey, introduce yourself here -> LINK
Day 14 (or custom):
if no avatar = add your own avatar, here's how.
Day 21:
are you already following us at Facebook: do it now!
Day 30:
do you want to get read of mailing notifications, here's how.
etc. etc.

So each new member will get a bunch of new PMs on a regular basis, each of the PMs focused on a CTA.
Users can opt-out from getting these automatic PMs.

The Welcome PM? Sure, it's in Spanish, quick translation:

Hi name,
You're already registered at site.com, I'm glad you decided to join us.

I explain here "HOW TO START":

Please, don't ask for help privately. I won't be able to answer.
Use the forum, more people will be able to help you and we all win.

Welcome on board!

PD2: follow us on fb & tw
PD3: do you have a blog? link to post asking for links

It's something "standard" that can be completely improved with a system like this one.

Can't edit...
That's not the only negative thing.
Having so many Click To Actions makes the new member to take no action at all :(
My guess is that dividing the CTAs into several autoPM each weer or so will increase the actions made by the new member.
