In this post, you’ll learn how to:
Set up powerful email automations with Flodesk
Use CustomGPT to write high-converting email copy
Bring it all together to save time and grow your income
Step 1: Create Your Flodesk Account and Workflow
Flodesk is your go-to email marketing platform if you want something intuitive, elegant, and efficient. Here's how to get started:
Sign up at flodesk.com.
Choose or create an email template that aligns with your brand.
Set up a welcome sequence using their easy drag-and-drop workflow builder.
Pro tip: Keep your welcome sequence short, warm, and helpful—think “connection over perfection.”
Step 2: Use CustomGPT to Write Your Emails
Instead of staring at a blank screen, let AI do the heavy lifting.
Try this prompt:
“Write a 5-part email welcome series for women entrepreneurs aged 30-50 who feel overwhelmed, want to grow their business, and value authenticity and simplicity.”
You’ll get a full series in seconds—and you can fine-tune it to match your voice.
Step 3: Automate Your Lead Magnet Delivery
Upload your lead magnet (PDF, guide, checklist) in Flodesk and set the automation:
Trigger: New subscriber from form
Action: Send welcome email + lead magnet
Follow-up: Send the rest of your welcome series
CustomGPT can also help create your lead magnet. Just ask it:
“Outline a simple, 5-page guide for a small clothing retailer who wants to automate their business.”
Step 4: Layer in Other AI Tools
Bonus: Add Canva to design your PDF (with style), and use CustomGPT to write social media captions to promote it.
The result? An automated system that grows your email list and builds trust while you rest, parent, or unplug.
