Readers have learned to spot AI-written email in the first line. “I hope this email finds you well”<\/em>, “In today’s fast-paced world”<\/em> and the same three-part structure every time. The problem isn’t AI, it’s asking for a whole sequence in one go<\/strong> with nothing specific to say. The email prompts in our text library<\/a> work differently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below: how to plan the sequence first<\/strong>, give the model real material and ban the usual phrases. It pairs well with the brand voice rules<\/a> from our previous post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan the sequence before writing a word<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Decide what each email is for before asking for copy. A simple outline works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Email 1 (day 0):  Welcome. One quick win they can get today.\nEmail 2 (day 2):  The most common mistake new users make.\nEmail 3 (day 5):  A short customer story with one real number.\nEmail 4 (day 9):  Feature they probably haven't found yet.\nEmail 5 (day 14): Ask for a reply: what are they trying to do?<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Write one email at a time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Write email {{email_number}} of a 5-part onboarding sequence.\n\nPurpose of this email: {{purpose}}\nFacts you may use (do not invent others):\n{{facts}}\n\nUnder 120 words. One link, one call to action.\nSubject line under 45 characters, no clickbait.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
The facts<\/code> field is the key. A real number, a real customer quote or a real feature name is what makes an email sound like it came from a company and not a template.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ban the clich\u00e9s by name<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Add a short list of phrases the model must not use. Being explicit works much better than “avoid clich\u00e9s”:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n
  • “I hope this email finds you well”<\/li>\n\n\n
  • “In today’s fast-paced world”<\/li>\n\n\n
  • “Don’t miss out”<\/li>\n\n\n
  • “Unlock”, “elevate”, “supercharge”<\/li>\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \n\n
    Specific beats clever. A real number beats both.<\/p>\n\nEmail marketer, SaaS team<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
    Read them in order<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    Before sending anything, read the whole sequence top to bottom. Repeated openers, a call to action used twice and the same story told twice are easy to miss one email at a time and obvious when read in a row.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
