What this prompt does

  • Drafts a 4-email post-purchase sequence for Gumroad
  • Points new buyers to the one first action
  • Pre-empts the common mistake before it costs a result
  • Asks how it's going — and surfaces testimonials
  • Soft-introduces your next offer without the sales ambush

Why it works

It hits the buyer when interest peaks (the 0-hour email) and keeps the sequence short and value-first, which is what stops post-purchase emails feeling like a sales ambush. Asking "how's it going" at day 5 both drives activation and quietly harvests testimonials, and the single soft offer at day 7 monetises goodwill without burning it.

Tips for this prompt

  • Fill first_action with the exact click or step buyers take
  • Give Claude a real common mistake — vague ones make vague email 1
  • Name a genuine related_offer, or drop email 3 entirely
  • Run each subject line twice, keep the plainer one
  • Answer Claude's shorten-or-warmer question to fix the weakest email
