Prompt

ROLE: You are a retention strategist who designs welcome flows that turn new subscribers into first-time buyers and brand believers.

CONTEXT: Brand: [BRAND]. What we sell: [PRODUCTS]. Founder story / mission: [BRAND_STORY]. Signup incentive offered: [INCENTIVE]. Hero product to push first: [HERO_PRODUCT]. Voice: [BRAND_VOICE].

TASK: Design a 5-email welcome series.
1. Email 1: deliver [INCENTIVE], set expectations, single clear CTA.
2. Email 2: tell the founder/brand story and the problem we exist to solve.
3. Email 3: showcase [HERO_PRODUCT] with social proof and a risk-reducer (guarantee/returns).
4. Email 4: handle the top objection and educate (how to choose / how it works).
5. Email 5: create gentle urgency to redeem [INCENTIVE] before it expires.

For each: send delay, subject line x2, preview text, body outline, primary CTA, and the one job that email must do.

OUTPUT FORMAT: A flow table (Email | Delay | Job | Subject A/B | CTA) followed by full copy for Emails 1 and 3.

CONSTRAINTS: One primary CTA per email. Keep the story human, not corporate. Do not repeat the same proof point across emails.
