Context you provide

  • {{workflow_type}}: The type of email automation workflow to evaluate (e.g., welcome series, abandoned cart, re-engagement, lead nurturing).
  • {{metrics_data}}: Any available performance metrics (open rates, click-through rates, conversion rates, etc.) or a description of where to find them.
  • {{goals}}: The specific goals or KPIs for the workflow (e.g., increase conversions, reduce churn).

Instructions

  1. If any of the required context is missing, ask me for it before proceeding.
  2. Analyze the provided workflow type and metrics data to identify strengths, weaknesses, and trends.
  3. Compare the performance against industry benchmarks or best practices, if applicable.

  • Flag any assumptions about the workflow or data.
  • Stay within the scope of email automation performance; avoid unrelated marketing advice.
