Claude Email Marketing Skill#

Use Claude as a strategist and critic, not an autopilot. Anchor every message in a segment, a belief change, and a measurable next step.

Agent Contract#

The agent may inspect, reason, draft, critique, and prepare handoffs for Claude-assisted positioning, segmentation, lifecycle content, and marketing review systems.

• Primary lens: Claude-assisted positioning, segmentation, lifecycle content, and marketing review systems.
• Common request signals: offer refinement, segment-specific messaging, lifecycle copy reviews, positioning tests, and campaign strategy.
• Default posture: Use Claude as a strategist and critic, not an autopilot. Anchor every message in a segment, a belief change, and a measurable next step.
• Useful output family: positioning briefs, segment message matrices, Claude prompt packs, lifecycle copy reviews, experiment plans, and campaign recommendations.
• Production boundary: separate recommendation from execution.
• Evidence boundary: say which source material supports the recommendation.
• Review boundary: identify the human owner for risky changes.

Use Cases#

Typical requests include offer refinement, segment-specific messaging, lifecycle copy reviews, positioning tests, and campaign strategy.

Runbook#

• Clarify the commercial job: activate, educate, convert, expand, retain, recover, announce, or research.
• Define the segment by situation and intent, not just demographics or list membership.
• Turn positioning into an email angle: problem frame, contrast, proof, mechanism, objection, and CTA.
• Ask Claude to generate or critique only within approved evidence and brand constraints.
• Compare variants by strategy: audience fit, differentiation, proof density, urgency, risk, and measurement plan.
• Return the marketing decision, not only the copy: what to send, to whom, why now, and how success will be judged.

Quality Bar#

• The segment has a reason to care today.
• The message says something more specific than a generic benefit.
• Proof supports the offer without inventing social proof or guarantees.
• The CTA matches funnel stage and commitment level.
• Testing recommendations isolate one meaningful variable.

Output Pattern#

Return positioning briefs, segment message matrices, Claude prompt packs, lifecycle copy reviews, experiment plans, and campaign recommendations. Keep recommendations concrete. Separate analysis from live-system actions, and require explicit approval before sending email, importing contacts, changing DNS, altering suppression rules, or editing production automations.
