Email marketing prompts that do the work
Copy-paste prompts for Claude, ChatGPT and other AI assistants that don't stop at writing. Connected to Audienceful, your assistant builds the audience, sets up the automation and schedules the send, and you approve every step that matters.
Free up to 1,000 contacts. The MCP server and AI agent are included on every plan.
- Step 1
Connect Audienceful once
Add our MCP server to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini or Cursor. It takes a minute and works on every plan.
- Step 2
Paste a recipe
Each recipe is one prompt. Your assistant works out the steps and calls the right Audienceful tools to carry them out.
- Step 3
Review and approve
Automations arrive paused, bulk changes show a count first, and nothing sends until you approve the exact recipients.
Automations
Build an abandoned cart flow with AI
“Set up an abandoned checkout flow for my Shopify store: an email when a checkout is abandoned showing the products they left behind, a reminder a day later, and a final email two days after that with the code COMEBACK10. Leave it paused so I can review it.”
Create a welcome sequence with AI
“Create a three-email welcome sequence for new subscribers: a warm welcome right away, our three most popular posts after two days, and a soft pitch for our paid plan after five days. Match the tone of our recent newsletters and leave it paused.”
Set up post-purchase emails with AI
“Build a post-purchase flow for Shopify orders: a thank-you email as soon as an order is fulfilled with tips for getting the most out of what they bought, then a review request seven days later. Tag them 'review-asked' after the second email. Leave it paused.”
Build a trial-to-paid sequence with AI
“Build our trial emails from Stripe. When a trial starts, send a welcome with our three setup steps, then a nudge three days later to connect an integration. Separately, when a trial is about to end, send a reminder with what they'll lose. Tag trial users 'trial-nurture'. Leave both paused.”
Campaigns
Run a win-back campaign with AI
“Find customers who've bought from us before but haven't ordered in the last 90 days. Tell me how many there are, write a win-back email with 15% off using the code WELCOMEBACK, send me a test, then schedule it for Thursday at 10am to that group.”
Turn blog posts into a newsletter with AI
“Turn my last three blog posts into this week's newsletter. Start from last week's issue, write a short intro, then a section for each post with a two-sentence summary and a Read more button. Send me a test when it's ready.”
Write a re-engagement campaign with AI
“Find subscribers who haven't been active in six months, write a short 'still want to hear from us?' email with one button to stay subscribed, send me a test, and schedule it for Tuesday at 9am Eastern to that group.”
Write a product launch email with AI
“Write a launch email for our new product from the announcement below. Use our theme: a hero with the headline, three feature highlights, and a button to the product page. Send a test to me and marketing@example.com.”
Plan a Black Friday email campaign with AI
“Plan our Black Friday campaign: an early-access email on Wednesday at 9am to customers who've spent over $200 this year, the main sale email to everyone on Friday at 8am, and a last-chance email on Monday at 10am that excludes anyone who has bought since Friday. Start from the holiday sale template and show me each send before scheduling it.”
Audiences and lists
Clean your email list with AI
“Clean my email list: find contacts who have hard bounced or haven't engaged in six months and stop emailing them. Show me how many that is before you change anything.”
Find your top customers with AI
“Who are my best customers? Build an audience of everyone who's spent over $500 with us in the last year, tell me how many there are, and draft a thank-you email giving them early access to our next sale.”
Segment inactive subscribers with AI
“Build two audiences: subscribers who haven't been active in the last 90 days, and subscribers who opened at least one of my last three newsletters. How many people are in each?”
Import contacts from a spreadsheet with AI
“Import the attached CSV of webinar attendees. Map the 'Company' column to a new company field, tag everyone webinar-oct, and let me know when it's done.”
Reporting and design
Analyze email campaign performance with AI
“How did my last five emails perform compared to my average? Which links got the most clicks, is my deliverability healthy, and how much revenue have my recent emails driven?”
Restyle your email theme with AI
“Restyle our email theme to match our new brand: background #FAF7F2, text #1F2937, buttons #1F2937 with 8px rounded corners, headings in Georgia and body text in Avenir. Then send me a test of our last newsletter so I can see it.”
Prompts that execute, not just write
Search for “ChatGPT prompts for email marketing” and you’ll find hundreds of prompts for subject lines and newsletter drafts. They’re useful, but the AI stops at text. You still build the segment, set up the flow, paste the copy and schedule the send.
These recipes are written for an assistant that’s connected to your email platform through an email marketing MCP server. Each one shows the prompt, the tools your assistant calls, and what you end up with. It’s what we call agentic email marketing.
New to it? Start with the Audienceful MCP server, or try the same prompts with the AI agent built into Audienceful.
FAQs
- What makes these different from other email marketing prompts?
- Most prompt lists help an AI write copy that you then paste somewhere. These prompts are for an assistant connected to your email platform, so it builds the audience, creates the automation, drafts the email in your editor and schedules the send. You review and approve the result.
- Do these prompts work in ChatGPT and Claude?
- Yes. Connect Audienceful to Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude Code or Cursor through our MCP server, then paste any recipe. You can also use them with the AI agent built into Audienceful, without connecting anything.
- Can the AI send emails without asking?
- No. Before any send, your assistant has to show you the recipients and timing, and your approval works once, for exactly those people. New automations are created paused, and bulk contact changes show a count first.
- Is it free?
- The MCP server and the built-in AI agent are included on every Audienceful plan, including Free, which covers up to 1,000 contacts. Using the MCP server doesn't use Audienceful AI credits.
