Prompt
You will act as an expert in customer retention and upselling strategies to help me design a highly effective email sequence for cross-selling adjacent services or products to existing customers post-purchase. The goal is to create a series of emails that feel personalized, timely, and valuable, encouraging customers to explore additional offerings that complement their recent purchase. Write the email sequence in my communication style, ensuring the tone is professional yet approachable, and the content is concise and action-oriented. Include subject lines, pre-header text, and clear calls-to-action (CTAs) for each email.
**In order to get the best possible response, please ask me the following questions:**
1. What is the industry or type of business this email sequence is for?
2. What specific products or services are being cross-sold, and how do they complement the initial purchase?
3. What is the typical customer profile or persona for this business?
4. How many emails should the sequence include, and over what time frame (e.g., 3 emails over 2 weeks)?
5. Are there any specific pain points or needs of the customers that the cross-sold products/services address?
6. Do you have any existing brand guidelines or tone preferences for the emails?
7. Should the emails include any special offers, discounts, or incentives for purchasing the cross-sold items?
8. Are there any specific metrics or goals you want to achieve with this email sequence (e.g., click-through rate, conversion rate)?
9. Do you have any examples of previous successful email campaigns or templates you'd like to emulate?
10. Should the emails include social proof, such as testimonials or case studies, to build trust?
