3. Send me a test of every email.
4. Ask me before anything goes live, before you change DNS, before you import contacts and before you connect my booking tool.

Set up these five email flows for your practice.

Start with these five flows, in this order, then send one short email a week. If you already have a welcome email, your agent checks what exists and builds only what is missing.

Then set it up for the businesses you back.

Ask support to switch on the Clients page, then create an account for each business you advise or fund and run this plan in it. Each business owns its account and picks its own paid plan, and you keep a seat they can remove. The partner program pays 40% recurring commission on every client you refer, on any plan (terms apply).

How to run it.

  1. 1

    Copy the prompt

    Paste it into Claude or ChatGPT. Your agent reads your site first and asks only what it cannot find, such as how your booking tool fits in.

  2. 2

    See your flows built

    It confirms the plan in one message, then builds all five flows as drafts in your own voice.

  3. 3

    Review, test, go live

    Your agent sends you a test of every email and switches on only the flows you approve.

Set up with Nitrosend

Your agent connects Nitrosend, reads your site for your look and voice, and drafts the five flows. If you advise, coach or fund several businesses, you set up each one the same way from the Clients page.

Start free Free to start: 5,000 emails up front, then 500 free every month. No card needed.
  • Bookings from your calendar tool can start a flow, and your agent asks before it connects anything
  • Every business you set up owns its account, and you keep a seat they can remove
  • Unlimited contacts. You pay for what you send

What your agent reads.

The skill is a plain text file you can read before you run it.

Read the skill file
skills/coaches.mdplain text
  1. One message to confirm the plan and how your booking tool fits in
  2. Five flows, with timings and the job of every email
  3. A test of every email and every link

The numbers to measure against.

The plan on this page comes from the Email Marketing Bible, the open-source email skill we maintain: 908 sources, 49 practitioners and 19 industry playbooks. No one publishes solid benchmarks for coaching practices, so these are the closest sourced numbers. Read the Email Marketing Bible.

Lets Me Focus on My Practice

I can focus on what’s most important for my practice without having to understand everything about email marketing.

“Just being able to say what you want and have it happen is quite a shift.”

Grow Brave StudiosJacqueline du Plessis, Workshop host

“I’ve tried GoHighLevel four times. When I got to this part, it was just too many clicks and too many steps to just create a flow. So I can’t wait to create a flow through Claude Code.”

TalonKim Stewart, Marketing Manager

“I migrated from MailerLite because I didn’t want another dashboard, and the drag-and-drop builder was so tacky. I just set it up once, and now Claude knows which template to use. My emails are 90% created automatically now. It saves me time.”

Questions people ask.

What emails should a coach or consultant set up first?

Discovery call confirmation and reminders, lead magnet delivery with double opt-in, a nurture sequence that ends in a call booking, client onboarding, and a testimonial and referral ask, in that order. Call reminders come first because they protect calls already on your calendar. Once those are live, send one short email a week.

Can Claude or ChatGPT set up email marketing for my coaching business?

Yes. Paste the prompt on this page into Claude or ChatGPT. It reads a short skill file, connects Nitrosend, works out how your booking tool fits in, builds the five flows as drafts and sends you a test of each. You approve what goes live.

Do I have to switch from Kit or Mailchimp?

Not all at once. Your agent builds the five flows in Nitrosend as drafts, and nothing sends until you approve it. When you are ready, it brings your subscribers across with their unsubscribes, after your yes. Your booking tool keeps sending its own invites and reminders.

Will my agent send anything without asking me?

The prompt tells it to build drafts, send tests only to you, and ask before anything goes live, before DNS changes, before importing contacts and before connecting your booking tool. For a hard stop on top of that, turn on Safe Mode in Nitrosend and every send waits for your approval.

How often should a coach email their list?

At least once a week. Ian Brodie, who writes about email for professional services, advises short weekly emails over one long monthly newsletter, because a monthly cadence gets you forgotten. Keep each email to one idea and one clear next step. Your agent drafts the first one as part of the setup.

What does it cost?

Free to start: 5,000 emails up front, then 500 free every month. No card needed. Contacts are unlimited on every plan, so a growing list of subscribers and past clients costs nothing to store. You pay for what you send. Starter is $20 a month for 20,000 emails.

Five flows. One prompt.
