#36Chapter 05 — Email Marketing & Nurture Sequences
Write a personalized email template for [CAMPAIGN TYPE — e.g., post-webinar follow-up, onboarding sequence email 3, product launch to existing customers].

Use these merge field placeholders exactly as written:
- [FIRST_NAME] — recipient's first name
- [COMPANY] — their company name
- [PAIN_POINT] — their primary challenge (we segment by this)
- [RECENT_ACTION] — their last engagement with us (e.g., "downloaded our pricing guide," "attended our webinar on X")

**Context:**
- Our product: [WHAT YOU SELL]
- This email's goal: [SPECIFIC CTA — book a demo, start a trial, read a case study]
- Brand voice: [YOUR TONE]

**Rules:**
- Keep the email under 200 words
- Use [FIRST_NAME] once (in the greeting). Don't overuse it — repeating someone's name feels like a sales script
- Reference [RECENT_ACTION] naturally, not as a surveillance report
- [PAIN_POINT] should appear as empathy, not assumption — frame it as "if you're like most [ROLE] dealing with [PAIN_POINT]..." not "we know you're struggling with [PAIN_POINT]"
- Write the subject line with one merge field maximum
- Write the preview text (no merge fields in preview — it often renders broken in clients)
