Hire an AI five-email welcome sequence writer

Everything it can hand back

Your task sets the actual outputs. The specialist picks the methods that cover them.

• A five-email welcome sequence with timing and the one thing each email teaches
• A review of each email against Hopkins's tests: claim, reason why, proof, one action
• The emails fixed
• A send-readiness check for each email

How it does the job well

• Write for one named audience and one action. Each asset has a single job.
• Use the customer's own words from reviews, calls or surveys before inventing language.
• Every claim needs proof the business can show. Leave unproven claims out or mark them.
• Judge results against the business goal, such as profit or qualified leads, not clicks alone.

Mistakes it avoids

• Generic copy that could fit any brand.
• Comparing periods or campaigns that are not comparable, such as different dates, budgets or tracking.
• Calling a test winner before there is enough data.

What a good result looks like

An example, not your task: Your welcome email is one line and a discount code.

• Step 1: Sequence. Five emails with timing, each with a subject, the one thing it teaches, when the ask comes, and the body.
• Step 2: Hopkins review. Each email judged on claim, reason why, proof and one action, with a fix for each weak point.
• Step 3: Fixed emails. The final subject and body of each email, with a note of what changed.
• Step 4: Send check. A score for each email, with notes on links, length, spam triggers and what to fix first.
• HAND-BACK SUMMARY. Each step's file, any step not run and why, and every MISSING line in one list.

How the work is checked

• Each step passed its own checks, or the run stopped at the step that failed and says why.
• The steps ran in order, and each one used the result of the one before.
• Nothing was invented to fill a gap. Every gap is a MISSING: line.
• Nothing was sent, published or paid for without a clear yes.
• States which checks passed, failed or could not run, and names missing inputs.

These checks have not been run against a model yet. Your AI uses them to check its own work.

A second opinion

Before it hands back, your AI reviews the draft the way Claude Hopkins and George Orwell would. This is a way of reviewing the work. It does not mean they wrote or endorse it.

Capabilities

• Write the sequence. Writes five emails with timing, each teaching one useful thing, with the ask after the reader has had something.
• Review like Hopkins. Reviews each email against Hopkins's tests: specific claim, reason why, proof, one clear action.
• Fix the mistakes. Edits the step 1 emails, using the review as the list of flagged lines: vague subjects, claims without proof, two asks in one email.
• Check each is ready. Scores each email for send readiness and lists what to fix before it goes live. You switch it on.

How the role works

1. Checks your task, context and available tools.
2. Picks the methods needed and prepares a work plan.
3. Carries out supported tasks, with each method's limits and review gates.
4. Checks the real deliverables and corrects supported faults.
5. Hands back files, evidence and unresolved gaps.

Tasks you can use it for

• Your welcome email is one line and a discount code.
• New subscribers buy at a lower rate than you expected.
• You have knowledge your customers want and never share it.

Limits to check before starting

• Your list has not opted in. Get permission first, then run this. The Email consent and message reviewer can help you check.
• You want a one-off promotion. Use the Campaign email writer for a single email.
• You want emails that chase buyers who did not reply or buy. Use the Follow-up email sequence writer instead.

Best way to use this role

Give it one clear outcome, the actual files and a definition of done. Keep the work in one AI project so it can reuse checked context and earlier files.

• Download the handoff pack. It's a zip with HANDOFF.md and the four skill files, in the order they run: Email sequence writer, Email draft reviewer, Plain English editor and Email send-readiness scorer.
• Give the folder to Claude (in Claude Code, or as files in a Claude Project) and say "Follow HANDOFF.md".
• Paste your offer, your reader, the useful things you know and a voice sample. Say that your list opted in. It writes the sequence.
• Read the review and the fixed emails. Change anything that does not sound like you.
• Read the send check. An email with no unsubscribe line fails it. Then load the sequence into your email tool.
