Why ChatGPT alone won’t write your welcome sequence


Hi Reader,

Here’s the thing about email: numbers matter, but so does how your emails feel.

Dan, who runs a local bike shop, used Babs the Welcome Email Muse to re-engage his list. His open rate jumped to 56% and click rate to 4.3%. That’s strategy at work: cleaner lists, stronger deliverability, and more people opening the door back into his business.

But it’s not just numbers.

Monique put it best:

“Compared to ChatGPT alone, Babs delivered better tone, flow, and results. She helped me create a warm, reflective welcome sequence… one that truly sounded like me. It felt like co-writing with someone who understood my work, my heart, and my reader. I’m genuinely proud of what we made together.”

And here’s why: your lead magnet is just the invitation.

What happens after someone signs up is where the relationship really begins.

Those first 3–5 emails are the path that:

✨ Reassures + delivers their freebie
✨ Introduces you and your values
✨ Offers support with a quick win
✨ Guides them to the next step

When you skip these, even the best freebie fizzles out.

That’s where Babs comes in. She isn’t ChatGPT — she’s strategy plus soul.

Instead of spitting out generic drafts, she helps you write a welcome sequence you actually feel proud to send — one that connects and converts.

Because the best emails aren’t just opened. They’re remembered.

To your email marketing success,

P.S. Not sure if your welcome emails (or freebie) are really doing their job? That’s exactly where Babs can help.

Thinking, “Kathy, I’m ready to take action with my emails...I just need a smart place to start”...
