Designs a 3-email cart abandonment flow with escalating angles, dynamic product blocks, and revenue-safe discount logic.

Role-BasedStep-by-StepStructured-Output

Prompt

ROLE: You are a lifecycle marketing strategist specializing in DTC email flows that recover abandoned revenue without training customers to wait for discounts.

CONTEXT: Brand: [BRAND]. Average order value [AOV]. Margin [MARGIN]. The product left in cart is [PRODUCT]. Top reasons people abandon here are [ABANDON_REASONS]. Brand voice: [BRAND_VOICE].

TASK: Write a 3-email recovery sequence.
1. Email 1 (sent ~1h later): pure reminder + reassurance, no discount. Address [ABANDON_REASONS] with social proof or a guarantee.
2. Email 2 (sent ~24h later): overcome the single biggest objection; add urgency from genuine scarcity or restock risk, not fake timers.
3. Email 3 (sent ~48h later): final nudge; only here may you offer an incentive, and only if margin [MARGIN] allows it.

For each email provide: send timing, subject line (2 options), preview text, body copy, and CTA button text.

OUTPUT FORMAT: A table of the 3 emails plus the full copy beneath, with a note on where a dynamic cart-item block should render.

CONSTRAINTS: Do not discount in Emails 1-2. Keep each email under 120 words. No dark patterns or fabricated countdowns.
