Overview

Designs automated email series such as a welcome sequence after sign-up, a lead nurture series, product onboarding or a re-engagement run for inactive subscribers. You describe who gets the emails, what starts the series and the goal; it returns a plan with timing and exit conditions, then each email with subject line, preview text, body and call to action. It suits founders and marketers who send email through a tool such as Mailchimp or Kit.

It plans the whole series, with timing and exit rules, before writing any copy, and it keeps a list of AI-sounding phrases to leave out.

Try these first

Start with the first one: it is a small task you can check easily.

  1. My product is [product] and people sign up for [reason]. Outline a five-email welcome sequence with timing. No full copy yet.First try · outline only

  2. Write email 2 of the sequence in full: subject line, preview text, body and call to action.

  3. Plan a three-email re-engagement series for subscribers who haven't opened anything in 60 days.

  4. Here are the emails we send today: [paste list]. Which lifecycle emails are we missing?

Good to know

Plan a welcome series for new subscribers, then draft each email. The skill sets the order, timing and exit conditions first and writes subject lines, preview text and body copy per email.

Limits

  • It writes the plan and copy; setting up the automation, segments and sending happens in your email tool. Timing and length guidance are starting points to measure, not results.
