You’ve made it to the end of the Email Storytelling with ChatGPT series—and now it’s time to tie it all together. This wrap-up isn’t just a summary. It’s a powerful toolkit you can use over and over again to write better, more human, more persuasive emails.
Below, you’ll find all the essential prompts from the series, organized by purpose, plus a few new bonus tips to help you create your own storytelling workflow.
đź§° The Core Prompts (Your Storytelling Toolbox)
- Story Starter Prompt: “Write an email that starts with a short, vivid personal story and connects it to this offer…”
- Make It Human Prompt: “Rewrite this email to sound more conversational, like it’s coming from a trusted friend.”
- Emotional Hook Prompt: “Add curiosity, urgency, or emotion to the opening line to hook the reader.”
- Simplify Prompt: “Rewrite this email to be clear and concise, written at a 6th-grade reading level.”
- Real-Time Rewrite Prompt: “Rewrite this with more storytelling, energy, and personality—but keep the core message intact.”
These aren’t just tricks. They’re tools. Each one can transform a flat email into something compelling—and most of the time, you can see the difference immediately.
⚙️ How to Use This Toolkit in Your Workflow
- Start with your goal. Is it to inform, sell, connect, entertain?
- Write your first draft fast. Don’t overthink it.
- Run it through your prompts. Use ChatGPT to rewrite, refine, and humanize.
- Pick the best version—or blend them. You’re in control. Use what feels right.
- Test and tweak. Add CTAs, subject lines, and emotional hooks last.
This approach helps you write faster, improve quality, and maintain your voice—even if you’re not a “natural” storyteller.
đź’ˇ Bonus Prompt: The Story Swap
Prompt:
“Replace the opening of this email with a story that better matches the reader’s emotion or current situation.”
Sometimes the story is fine, but the angle is off. This one helps realign your email to meet your reader where they are.
📌 Save It, Use It, Share It
You now have a plug-and-play storytelling system that can work for any email—from onboarding to promotions to weekly newsletters. Keep it bookmarked. Use it often. Share it with your team or VA.
And remember: people ignore boring emails. But they read (and share) stories.
