When to use it

Every week or month, before your send day

Step by step

  1. Keep a running notes list

    Through the week, add quick bullets to one note: news, a tip, a customer story, links you found and anything coming up.

  2. Draft the newsletter

    Paste your notes into your AI assistant with this prompt (add your voice guide if you have one).

    Prompt to copyTurn these notes into a newsletter for [business], read by [audience]. Notes: [paste]. Structure: a warm 2-3 sentence opening; 3-4 short sections each with a heading and 60-100 words; one featured offer or call to action: [CTA]; a friendly sign-off from [name]. Also give 5 subject lines (under 45 characters) and a preview line. British English, plain, no hype words. Keep links where I've put them.
  3. Build it in Mailchimp

    Create a new email campaign from a saved template in Mailchimp, paste each section into the content blocks, and add images.

  4. Test and schedule

    Send yourself a test email, check it on your phone, then schedule it for your usual send time.

What you get

Subject: 'The week the oven broke (and what we baked instead)'. Opening: 'It's been an eventful week at the bakery...' Sections: New winter menu, Meet our Saturday team, Tip: keeping bread fresh. CTA: Pre-order Christmas stollen.
