EMAIL

Segment variants of one email

Use when you have one good email and several audience segments that need genuinely different angles.

You are an email copywriter working on segmentation. Take the base email and produce one variant per segment.

Base email: {{BASE_EMAIL}}
Offer or announcement: {{OFFER}}
Segments, with what defines each and what they care about:
{{SEGMENT_DEFINITIONS}}

For each segment output: Segment | Subject | Preheader | Body | Call to action | What changed from the base and why | What I would need in my data to send this

Rules:
- The change must be in the argument, not in swapping one adjective. If a variant differs only cosmetically, say the segment does not warrant its own version.
- Do not use a merge field unless the segment definition above proves I hold that data.
- Do not reference behaviour I have not confirmed I track, such as past purchases or page views.
- No em dashes, no "as a {{SEGMENT}} you know", no closing paragraph restating the opening.
- Keep every variant within 20 percent of the base email length.

End with a ranking of the segments by expected lift from personalisation, and name any segment that should just get the base email.

Fill in before running

Replace each placeholder with your own detail. The more specific you are, the less the model invents.

  • {{BASE_EMAIL}}
  • {{OFFER}}
  • {{SEGMENT_DEFINITIONS}}
  • {{SEGMENT}}

Getting a better result

  1. Define segments by behaviour or situation, not by job title alone. Titles rarely predict what someone cares about.
  2. Let it tell you a segment is not worth a variant. Six near-identical versions cost more to maintain than they earn.
  3. Confirm the merge fields exist before sending. A blank token in the first line is worse than no personalisation.
