Email Sequence

Describe a goal — get a lifecycle email sequence, email by email.

How it works

Corpus-grounded (lifecycle/direct-response email via the marketing cluster). Designs a 4–7 email arc (welcome → value → proof → offer → nudge) — each with timing, subject + preview, single purpose, body outline, and one CTA — plus success metrics and the riskiest assumptions.

You bring

{ goal, audience?, cluster? }

You get

{ sequence_summary, sequence_goal, emails[]{step, timing, subject, preview, purpose, body_outline[], cta}, success_metrics[], riskiest_assumptions[], grounded_in, provenance }

example output

Goal: "onboard new trial users of a team time-tracking SaaS to their first logged week," for newly-signed-up team admins.

Email Sequence — Trial Onboarding (Time-Tracking SaaS)

Goal: Get a newly-signed team admin from signup to a full week of tracked time across their team — the activation moment that predicts conversion.

Audience: Team admins (ops/PM leads) who just started a 14-day trial.

Body outline — Email 3 (the value email)

  • Open on the surprise: "Most admins underestimate meetings by half."
  • Link straight to their own team's first weekly report.
  • Name one decision the report unlocks (rebalance workload).
  • One CTA; no secondary links.

Success metrics

Open rate per step, click-to-activation rate (Emails 1–2), report-view rate (Email 3), and the sequence's trial→paid conversion vs. the no-email baseline.

Riskiest assumptions

  • That "first logged week" is the true activation metric (validate against retained accounts).
  • That admins, not individual users, are the right audience for the swap to paid.
  • That a 5-email cadence over 12 days isn't too dense for this buyer.

Grounded in lifecycle / direct-response email principles (one job per email, single CTA) — marketing cluster.
