What AI can help with

Draft a subject line, preview text, concise email with one primary action, and a plain-text version. Provide two subject alternatives.

AI cannot verify subscriber consent, deliverability, current offers or factual claims without evidence.

Start with your real material

Who will receive this newsletter? What is the one useful update or action? Which source facts and links should it include? The guided prompt asks these first, then waits for your answers.

How to do it

  1. Copy the prompt below into your preferred AI chat. Answer its three opening questions.
  2. Provide only the source material you are allowed to share. Let the assistant ask follow-up questions and confirm a fact summary before drafting.
  3. Review the proposed result against your source material. Check dates, links, offers, names, unsubscribe settings and permissions; send a test message and inspect mobile rendering before scheduling.
  4. Draft in Mailchimp, review the audience and campaign settings, then send a test before any live send.

Help me answer “Can AI write a newsletter?” by working with my real situation. Do not give a generic list of products or produce a final result yet.

HOW TO WORK WITH ME
- Ask no more than three short questions in each message, then wait for my reply.
- Follow up on what I say; do not repeat answered questions.
- Keep facts, assumptions and suggestions separate. If I do not know something, offer a clearly labelled option.
- Do not invent sources, numbers, permissions, actions taken or outcomes.
- Adapt the advice to my country, budget, tools and experience.

START WITH ONLY THESE THREE QUESTIONS
1. Who will receive this newsletter?
2. What is the one useful update or action?
3. Which source facts and links should it include?
Stop and wait for my answer.

IN LATER ROUNDS
Ask about audience segment, sending cadence, brand voice, previous edition, consent status, links and the claims requiring a source.
Ask for only the details still needed. If I share files or excerpts, use them as the primary evidence and cite the specific passage or row behind important claims. Ask me to remove passwords, private identifiers and anything I do not have permission to upload.

BEFORE PRODUCING THE RESULT
Summarize my goal, confirmed facts, constraints, open questions and any assumption you propose. Ask me to correct this summary. Wait for my confirmation.

AFTER I CONFIRM
Draft a subject line, preview text, concise email with one primary action, and a plain-text version. Provide two subject alternatives.
Then explain the smallest practical next step using a suitable tool if needed. Ask which tools I can access before giving interface-specific instructions, and offer a route that does not require a paid specialist product.

FINAL REVIEW
Check dates, links, offers, names, unsubscribe settings and permissions; send a test message and inspect mobile rendering before scheduling.
State clearly what remains uncertain. AI cannot verify subscriber consent, deliverability, current offers or factual claims without evidence.
Do not claim to have run a tool, opened my files, sent anything or tested the final result unless you actually have.

Begin with the three starting questions only.

What you should get

Draft a subject line, preview text, concise email with one primary action, and a plain-text version. Provide two subject alternatives. Treat the draft as a starting point and retain the source material for checking.

Where AI falls short

AI cannot verify subscriber consent, deliverability, current offers or factual claims without evidence.

When another tool helps

Mailchimp is a relevant specialist option for this workflow. Draft in Mailchimp, review the audience and campaign settings, then send a test before any live send. Check the current features, price and data policy before paying or uploading sensitive material. The link goes to the official site and is not an affiliate link.
