Email Sequence Plan — The 90-Second Pipeline™ Workshop
Campaign: Practice Builders Workshop — The 90-Second Pipeline™ Offer: $17 live build session, June 3, 2026 List: One universal segment — all warm contacts, excluding workshop buyers (see Platform Setup) Cadence: 5 emails over 12 days (May 22 – Jun 2) Pattern: Taki-style — each email uses a genuinely different format Modeled on: Taki Moore's Magnetic workshop sequence Platform: MailerLite — scheduled campaigns (not automation), exclude buyers
Taki Patterns Applied
| # | Pattern | How It Shows Up |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Every email is a genuinely different format | Teaching story → System reveal → FAQ → Value stack → Urgency |
| 2 | One sentence per line | All emails. Conversation, not newsletter. |
| 3 | Teaching in every email | Even the urgency email names the pattern (one-at-a-time vs. system). |
| 4 | Personal stories carry the teaching | Email 1 opens with a real client pipeline moment. Email 2 opens with the skills/pipeline problem. |
| 5 | Subject lines: short, curiosity-driven | Under 50 chars. No "WORKSHOP ALERT" energy. |
| 6 | Personality is the differentiator | Kathryn's calm authority — pattern-revealing, not hype. |
| 7 | Hard sell comes late | Email 1 has no link. Price lives on the sales page, not in emails. |
Platform Setup (MailerLite)
These are scheduled campaigns, not automation steps. The workshop has a fixed date (June 3). Late opt-ins entering an automation would get stale urgency emails after the event. Schedule each email as a campaign on the specific send date.
One universal segment for all emails. Built in MailerLite Advanced filter — 5 OR blocks, each with the same 2 exclusions. Every campaign uses this segment.
Include (OR):
- Groups | Belongs to | Start | LTO-52 Claude Skills
- Groups | Belongs to | Complete | LTO-52 Claude Skills
- Groups | Belongs to | Start | Client Intelligence Brief
- Groups | Belongs to | Complete | Client Intelligence Brief
- Groups | Belongs to | Existing List — 52 Skills Campaign
Exclude (AND, repeated in each OR block):
- Groups | Does not belong to | Start | 90-Second-Pipeline-Workshop
- Groups | Does not belong to | Complete | 90-Second-Pipeline-Workshop
15 rows total. Exclusions must repeat inside every OR block — MailerLite evaluates each block independently. Segment screenshot saved in campaign folder (image.png).
Email 1 — Teaching Story
Send: Thursday May 22 Format: Teaching story — pattern recognition Sells: No. No link. No offer mention. Versions: One universal version (pipeline story works for both segments)
Subject line options:
- "I looked at 8 names and spotted the pattern"
- "the pipeline problem nobody talks about"
- "one at a time is the problem"
Preview text: You're looking at names. The system looks at patterns.
Angle: Open with a real moment — Kathryn looking at a client's pipeline and realizing the problem isn't that they don't follow up, it's that they follow up one at a time. The system-level view reveals patterns invisible at the individual level. Name the pattern. End soft.
Structure (Taki's "I cheat at content" pattern):
- Drop into the moment. No preamble. "I was looking at a client's pipeline last week."
- Build through specifics — how many names, what she noticed looking at them all at once vs. one at a time
- Name the pattern: three people who all needed the same nudge, two who needed a direct ask, one who should have been let go months ago
- The shift: "You can't see that looking at one name at a time."
- Close soft: "More on this Monday." No link.
CTA: Soft. No link. "More on this Monday."
[PLACEHOLDER — REAL STORY NEEDED]: Kathryn needs a real pipeline moment — either from her own practice or from a client engagement (anonymized). The story needs: how many names, what she saw looking at the whole list, what pattern emerged that wasn't visible one name at a time. Cannot be fabricated.
Email 2 — System Reveal (Announcement)
Send: Monday May 26 Format: System reveal — outcomes, structure, format Sells: Yes. First link to sales page. Versions: One universal version (pipeline pain opener works for all segments)
Subject line options:
- "what if your pipeline review took 90 seconds?"
- "I'm building something live. Bring your data."
Preview text: 60-minute build session. Your pipeline. Your outreach. Your referral asks.
Angle: Reveal the workshop — what it is, what you'll build, what you leave with. This is the announcement. First link to the sales page.
Structure (Taki's "Freestyle Rap for you" pattern):
- Opens with pipeline pain → follow-up gap (concrete, specific — names the behavior)
- Pivot: 15 names deep, you're behind before you start
- System description: reads the whole list at once, 3 skills wired together
- What you'll build (5 bullets — pipeline review, priority, approach, outreach, referral asks)
- Framework context (WIN / DELIVER / GROW — one line)
- CTA: link to sales page
CTA: Sales page link. "Reserve your seat →"
NOTE: Drafted in workshop-nurture-email-draft.md. Merged from two versions to one universal version — Version B body works for all segments. Copy QC and sentence editor passed. Three-skill system language applied.
Email 3 — FAQ
Send: Wednesday May 28 Format: FAQ / Q&A — bold questions, direct answers Sells: Yes. Link to sales page. Versions: Universal (one version, both segments)
Subject line options:
- "you probably have questions about June 3"
- "do I need to know AI for this?"
- "the two questions everyone asks"
Preview text: Quick answers. Then decide.
Angle: Handle the real objections. Bold questions, direct answers. Personality in the answers — not corporate FAQ energy. End with "still reading? You're probably coming."
Structure (Taki's "Let me clear this up" pattern):
- Open with one line: "A few questions keep coming up about June 3."
- 5-6 bold questions with direct answers:
- "Do I need to know AI?" — No. You need Claude open and a list of names. We build together.
- "What if I can't make it live?" — You get the recording. But Q&A is live-only and not recorded. The real value is building with your data in real time.
- "Is this a webinar?" — No. You'll have Claude open. You'll paste your data. You'll build the system yourself with guidance.
- "What do I need to prepare?" — 5-10 names from your pipeline. Name, how you know them, last contact, status. That's it.
- "Will you pitch me something?" — I'll show you the full framework and mention the membership. No pressure. What you build is yours.
- "Do I need a paid Claude account?" — Yes. The skills require uploads, which need a paid account.
- Close: "Still reading? You're probably coming."
- CTA: sales page link
CTA: Sales page link. Compact — after the closing line.
Email 4 — Value Stack
Send: Saturday May 31 Format: Value stack — every component listed Sells: Yes. Link to sales page. Versions: Universal (one version, both segments)
Subject line options:
- "everything you get on June 3"
- "here's what you're building Tuesday"
- "60 minutes. your data. this is what you leave with."
Preview text: The full breakdown — build session, outreach, framework, recording.
Angle: List every component with a one-line description. Make it concrete — not "you'll learn" but "you'll build." The math isn't about comparing to the price (it's $17, the math is irrelevant). The math is about what the output is worth — a prioritized pipeline, personalized outreach, and referral asks for every name.
Structure (Taki's "posting like it's cardio" pattern):
- Open: "Here's exactly what happens on June 3."
- Component list (each with one-line description):
- 60-minute live build session — your pipeline, your data, your outreach
- The 90-Second Pipeline™ — three skills wired into one system, installed and working when you leave
- Personalized outreach for every contact — different strategy per person, ready to send
- Referral asks — identified and written for the right contacts
- WIN / DELIVER / GROW framework — the full map, nine systems, four levels each
- Q&A after the build — stay on for tactical questions (not recorded)
- Build session recording — reference if you can't make it live
- Bridge: "One follow-up to a stalled prospect. That's all this needs to pay off."
- CTA: sales page link
CTA: Sales page link. Direct.
Email 5 — Last Call
Send: Monday June 2 (day before) Format: Urgency — short, stakes-based Sells: Yes. Link to sales page. Versions: Universal (one version, both segments)
Subject line options:
- "tomorrow at noon"
- "last call — June 3"
- "your pipeline list ready?"
Preview text: Build session is tomorrow. Bring your names.
Angle: Short. Name the choice: keep following up one at a time, or build the system tomorrow. No re-explaining the offer. No value stack repeat. Just the decision.
Structure (Taki's "typing quietly so I don't wake him" — short, creative):
- 4-6 sentences max
- Name the status quo (you'll keep following up when you remember to)
- Name the alternative (tomorrow we build the system that handles all of them at once)
- CTA: sales page link
- Close: "See you at noon."
CTA: Sales page link. "See you at noon." Close.

Buyer Sequence (Separate Automation — MailerLite)
Buyers are excluded from the nurture sequence above. They get their own cadence, triggered by joining group "Start | Workshop-90 Second Pipeline."
Trigger: Joins group "Start | Workshop-90 Second Pipeline" (ThriveCart webhook) Platform: MailerLite automation (not scheduled campaigns — buyers can purchase any time)
Pre-Workshop (Show-Up)
| Timing | Format | Job | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Delivery | Immediate | Confirmation + pre-work | Zoom link + pipeline list instructions ✅ exists |
| Pre-work nudge | 3 days before (May 31) | Short reminder | "Is your list ready?" Re-state the pre-work. Remind: Claude open. |
| Day-before | 1 day before (June 2) | Short | Zoom link. Have your list. Have Claude open. |
| Day-of | Morning of (June 3, 10am ET) | One line | "2 hours." Zoom link. Nothing else. |
Pre-workshop emails are operational — no selling, no personality. Their only job is show-up rate with data ready.
Post-Workshop (Membership Bridge)
| Timing | Format | Job | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Recording + recap | Evening of June 3 or June 4 | Delivery + recap | Recording link. Name what they built. Reinforce walk-away value. |
| Membership bridge | June 4 or 5 | Framework reveal | Nine systems, four levels. What they built = Level 3 (Delegate) of one system — three skills wired into one workflow. Membership builds the rest. $27/mo locked for workshop buyers. |
| Rate lock expires | June 6 or 7 | Short urgency | Workshop rate expires [date]. After that, standard pricing. |
Post-workshop sequence maps to Deiss CVO — $17 workshop is the SLO, membership is the core offer. The bridge email is the critical conversion point.
Status: Not yet drafted. Pre-workshop reminders are simple (draft when sequence dates are locked). Post-workshop bridge needs membership offer details confirmed (Jules/Reid).
Non-Buyer Post-Sequence
Non-buyers who didn't purchase get nothing further about this workshop after the nurture sequence ends June 2.
