Inputs to customise

  • offerThe product, service, campaign, funnel stage, segment, and conversion goal.
  • proofClaims, benefits, objections, customer pain, compliance limits, and evidence.
  • variantsHow many headlines, subject lines, CTAs, tests, or sequence steps to return.

Quality checks

  • Does the email open with a specific, named pain — not a generic opener like 'I hope this finds you well'?
  • Is the email body under 150 words with exactly one CTA?
  • Is the proof point specific (a result, a number, a named customer type) rather than a vague credibility claim?
