Rewriting

Remove spam triggers from a draft

Find wording and formatting that looks like spam in a cold email, and rewrite it plainly.

The prompt
Review this cold email for anything that makes it look like spam or marketing:

{{email}}

1. List each problem: hype words ("free", "guaranteed", "act now"), all caps, exclamation marks, too many links, image-heavy layout, pushy pressure.
2. Rewrite the email plainly without them, keeping the meaning and the question.
3. Keep {{tags}} exactly as they are.

Return the list, then the rewritten email.
Example of what it writes
Problems: 'FREE audit' (caps, hype), 'Act now!!' (pressure, exclamation marks), three links.

Rewritten: Hi {{firstName}}, I put together a short audit of where Northwind loses search traffic. Want me to send it over?

How to use this prompt

  1. Copy it into any AI tool, such as ChatGPT or Claude.
  2. Replace each {{field}} with real details about you and the person you're writing to. The more specific they are, the less generic the result.
  3. Check every fact, name and number in what comes back: AI can sound sure about things that aren't true.
  4. Cut it down if it runs long. A cold email reads best under about 75 words.
  5. Send it to yourself and read it on your phone before anyone else sees it.
