New Member Auto Emails

I would imagine that there either is already something that can do this that I'm not seeing, or hopefully someone can tweak something that already exists to do this for me (which I'm willing to pay for).

I'm building a site now, and I want to be able to set it up where when someone joins, they'll get a welcome email with some basics about how our site works and an ask to check out the page where you can invite friends, and then have another email that goes out a couple weeks later, with some other information and another ask to invite friends... automatically going out in the same way for each new member.

How can I make this work?

Thanks in advance.

The first part can be done using the Dolphin email templates. If you go to Admin -> Settings -> Email Templates you will see the templates for all the default Dolphin emails. You can edit the one titled "Profile activation message template" and change it to say anything you like. That is the one every member gets after their profile is activated. The two week follow up and friend invite reminder could be accomplished with a little custom coding. A simple script that loops through the database nightly and compares the current date to the join date, then sends an email if the difference is 14 days would do the trick. Then create a cron job to run the script nightly.
