We also created a number of sub-pages, specific to the new product launch, which drove registration and lead generation by offering a a free trial of the new product. There were also "Cappuccino" branded email streams that followed new registrants/users on an established schedule of "check-ins" covering the weeks it takes to start a smoking cessation program.
