Spent 6 months writing AI email sequences wrong before a random subscriber pointed it out
I was using ChatGPT to write full email sequences for my ecommerce store, and the open rates were awful like 8%. Then last month a subscriber replied saying 'your emails sound like a robot read a marketing textbook.' That's when I realized I was having the AI write the whole thing from scratch. Now I just use it to rewrite my own bullet points into casual language, and my open rate jumped to 22%. Has anyone else found that AI works better as an editor than a writer?

The email sounds like a robot thing is real. People can tell when a human didn't write it pretty fast.

Right, that "robot thing" is something else. My buddy got an email from a company he likes and it just repeated the same two points over and over, no flow at all.
