Episode Synopsis

Ever bought a set of email templates and thought, "These don't sound like me at all"? You're not alone. In this short and practical episode, Liz Wilcox — the Fresh Princess of Email Marketing — shares her best tips for customizing templates so they sound authentic, on-brand, and totally you. Whether you're using her templates or someone else's, this episode helps you find your voice inside prewritten words. Episode Highlights Why most templates are written in a "tone-neutral" voice — and how to adapt them. The easiest trick: read your email out loud to catch what doesn't sound like you. How to add a soft pitch inside a template to match your current offers or goals. Using ChatGPT or AI tools to rewrite templates in your tone or brand voice. When to add to a template — like stories, links, or media — to make it more you. When to subtract from a template — cutting what feels off-brand or overly generic. How to match a template's objective (clicks, replies, sales) with your current strategy. Key Takeaways Personalize intentionally: Add your stories, tone, and offers to make any template yours. Read it out loud: If it sounds stiff or fake, edit until it feels natural. Soft sell confidently: Mention your products casually when they fit the content. Trim the fluff: Remove anything that doesn't align with your brand voice or energy. AI can help: Use ChatGPT to rewrite templates in your tone and style.
