The secret prompt for writing the best cold sales email with ChatGPT

I’m sure by now you’ve tried ChatGPT and various other AI extensions and tools to generate emails. While they all do a good job of compiling the structure of the email and forming the right sentences, they struggle to capture the right message on their own. You are then obviously left with no choice but to edit the version provided by ChatGPT.

I know you’ve already concluded that it is better to use your original email draft and then pass it to ChatGPT to proofread for spellings or grammar, rather than having ChatGPT write the email from scratch. Well, if that is all you have settled for then, you are not alone.

At SuperRep, we started with the same experience. But we were on a mission to generate emails at scale in a hands-free manner, capturing the correct message, tone, and subject, while hyper-personalizing the entire email to the individual.

Why the mission to hyper-personalize cold sales emails?

Simply, I am just helping myself. I've been receiving cold sales emails too. I'm personally sick of receiving those template-based, scripted emails trying to sell me technology. Frankly, many of those things were actually very relevant to my personal or business needs. But despite the good research the BDRs did to identify my profile and effort to write me those emails, I was not compelled to engage or respond. There was something about those emails that made me feel I'm just a cell on that Excel sheet, and trust me, that's not a good feeling. Sadly, that's the case with 99% of emails. But those 1% of emails that were well-researched and crafted just for me - I found I had a tendency to engage and respond, of course provided the product or service pitched was relevant to my needs.

Why this? Cause template based emails make me feel I'm just a cell on that excel sheet…

So we've been on a mission to write hyper-personalized emails using ChatGPT for about three months. We arrived at the following prompt formula that works magically for us. And not just us.
