Emails That Sell
This is how I write my emails, and the campaign I use to warm people up, get them to register, and invite them in. I teach it inside Profitable Scaling, and I promised it to you on the September call.
Use it with my swipe emails and your Brand Voice Guide, and AI will write emails that sound like you instead of sounding like me. Or like AI.
The one rule: connect through story and teaching first. Only make an invite or a sale when it ties directly to a story or a teaching.
Get ready before you write
Have these ready before you paste any prompt. If you've done your Brand Voice Guide, most of this is already in your report.
- Your audience. Who they are, their number one pain and their number one desire.
- The offer. The promise, what they get, the price, the deadline and the link.
- Proof. Two to five testimonials or results. Long ones are fine; AI will pull what it needs.
- Objections. The five most common reasons people say no, or more.
- Stories. Three short ones: your own, a client's, a moment with the cards.
- Your credibility. A short bio.
- Your links. Your ambassador links from My Links.
- Guardrails. Words to avoid, and promises you will and won't make.
Tell AI the goal, the vibe and the length
The goal
The vibe
I like mine to sound like a journal and be story-driven, because that's a lot how I write.
The length
AI makes everything short. If you want a thousand words, tell it a thousand words.
What goes in every email
- Subject lines. Ask for three to six. Ask for 15 when you want to test what works.
- A hook that catches their attention.
- Context and promise. Why this matters to them.
- A teaching point in three to five sentences.
- A story or testimonial that goes with the teaching point. Real and specific.
- A tangible takeaway they can use the moment they read it.
- An objection reframe. Given the teaching point, what's the hesitation, and how do you flip it?
- A credibility line. One short line on why you're the one to trust on this teaching point.
- One call to action. It doesn't have to be "buy." It can be "reply to this," "do this journal prompt," or "go talk to this person."
- An engagement question so they reply.
- A teaser for the next email. "In the next email, I'm going to tell you…"
The campaign
Warm them up first, then get them to register, then invite them in. For you as an ambassador, the registration push is how you get people into the free Frequency Reset (or a webinar), and the invite emails bring them into the deck, the series or the retreat.
- Reintroduce yourself and give a gift of value, with a quick-win reply prompt.
- Bust a myth, with a story and one simple action.
- A deeper teaching, with proof, and a link to a free resource.
- Flip an objection with a case study. Soft invite.
- Recap their wins, and a cliffhanger into what's next.
- The big promise and what they'll get.
- A story and its lessons.
- Objections and proof.
- Your credibility and what happens inside.
- Objections, quick FAQ, and the link.
- The 24-hour reminder.
- Last chance: what they'll miss.
- The problem and the way through.
- A case study.
- Handle the biggest objection.
- Behind the scenes, or pure value.
- A second case study and what it's worth.
- A lightning round of FAQs.
- Last chance.
Every one of these ends with the invite.
If you've been sending a lot of sales emails, run the five warm-up emails and sell nothing before your next push. Every campaign needs an objection handled somewhere. If you don't know which objection goes in which email, run the objection builder below.
The prompt to copy
Upload or paste your Brand Voice Guide report, my swipe emails and your prep list from Step 1. Then paste this and fill the brackets.
One email at a time
When you only need one email, use this instead.
Run these first
Story and teaching ideas
I used this for two talks to similar audiences and got two completely different sets of stories. One of them was about a DJ turning the knobs to the frequency of the room, which I tied to my singing bowls. I would not have thought of that without the generator.
Subject lines
Objection reframes
Your one-liners
Write these once and paste them into every prompt.
Your audience
"[Who they are] who struggle with [their #1 pain] and want [their #1 desire] without [the thing they want to avoid]."
The offer
"Get [specific result] in [timeframe] with [what they get], so you can [the core benefit]. Details: [your link]."
Your credibility
"I've helped [who, or how many] get [a real result], and I bring [your years, training or certifications]."
Calls to action
- "Save your seat for [event] on [date and time]: [link]"
- "Hit reply with YES and I'll send you the details."
- "Start here: [free resource]: [link]"
- "Book a 10-minute call with me: [link]"
Engagement questions
- "What's the number one thing that slows you down with [topic]?"
- "If I could solve one problem for you this month, what would it be?"
- "Reply with a number from 1 to 10: how dialed in is your [thing] right now?"
How long it takes to read
Check it
- The goal is singular and obvious.
- There's one clear call to action.
- There's a specific story or proof.
- One objection is handled cleanly.
- There's a takeaway they can try now.
- The credibility line is in.
- The engagement question invites an easy reply.
- It sets up the next email.
- Every link works, and the dates and times are right.
- The tone matches the vibe you picked.
- Nothing is over-promised.
Then ask AI to check itself. Like a good employee, it does its best and still short-circuits sometimes.
My guardrails
- No gimmicks, no emojis.
- Never let it invent facts. It will make up stories and testimonials if you don't tell it not to.
- Tell it the length, and hold it there.
- One call to action, one question.
