Cold Email Copywriting Framework

Learn how to write converting cold emails.

Prospi automatically personalizes your cold emails using AI-generated details about your leads. To get the best results, you also need to bring your own offer, lead magnets, and case studies. This framework shows you how to put it all together.

Two Types of Variables

Prospi AI Variables - generated automatically from lead data:

  • ##{{Name}} - first name

  • ##{{Target Audience}} - who they serve

  • ##{{Pain Point}} - main challenge

  • ##{{Company Mission}} - their mission

  • ##{{Product/Service Name}} - what they sell

  • ##{{Benefit}} - value they provide

Your Own Inputs - you define these in your campaign setup:

  • [Your Offer] - what you're selling

  • [Lead Magnet] - a free resource or incentive

  • [Case Study] - proof of past results

Your emails combine these variables with your own text to create messages that feel personal and relevant at scale.
