Step 2: Sequence Map

Goal: [Conversion event]
Entry trigger: [What puts someone in]
Exit triggers: [Booked / replied / unsubscribed]

Touch 1 — Day 0:  Hook / insight / curiosity
Touch 2 — Day 3:  New angle / social proof
Touch 3 — Day 7:  Case study / specific outcome
Touch 4 — Day 12: Objection handler / different stakeholder
Touch 5 — Day 17: Urgency / event
Touch 6 — Day 22: Breakup

Step 3: Email Template Per Touch

EMAIL [N] — Day [X]
Subject: [Primary] | A/B: [Alternative]
Preview text: [40-90 chars]
From: [Name / role]

[Opening — hook, not a pitch. 1 sentence.]
[1-2 sentences relevant context]
[Core message — outcome in 1-2 sentences]
[Proof point]
[CTA — one clear ask]
[Signature]

Writing Principles Per Touch

  • Touch 1: Insight > pitch. Under 100 words. Low-commitment CTA.
  • Touch 2: New angle + light social proof ("3 other [roles] at [similar companies]...")
  • Touch 3: Specific customer story framed in their world. CTA: "I can show you how in 15 min"
  • Touch 4: Different stakeholder OR address top objection directly
  • Touch 5: Legitimate urgency — event, pricing change, new feature
  • Touch 6: "I'll stop reaching out after this." Give easy out.

Subject Line Formulas

CURIOSITY: "Question about [pain] at [Company]"
DIRECT: "15 minutes for [specific outcome]?"
PAIN-FIRST: "Still dealing with [pain]?"
SOCIAL PROOF: "How [similar co] achieved [X]"
FOLLOW-UP: "Re: [previous]" / "Last one from me — [hook]"
