Please list the steps I should take and examples of questions I could ask to gain a deeper understanding of my audience’s needs."Prompt 2: Crafting Engaging Email Content

What should I consider when writing the subject lines, opening lines, and calls to action? I'd like practical tips on making my content relatable and actionable, as well as examples of effective email templates or frameworks that I can adapt for my sequence."Prompt 3: Timing and Frequency of Emails

Hey guys, got your newsletter today :) Your prompt examples were helpful but you left out one very very very important instruction: Please craft this email nurture sequence in ways that provide value, inspire curiosity on the part of the reader, and most importantly, do not sound pitchy or pushy or salesy. They should be invitational, using words like: Would you like to?... and not be convincing or sell too early. Too many messages sell too fast and this turns prospects off not only to the offer but then people get suspicious about AI-generated messaging.
