About this episode

What if AI could help you write better emails without making you sound like a robot? 

In this Empire Exclusive episode, Allison Hardy chats with AI expert Kinsey Soderberg about how to use AI tools (like ChatGPT) in a way that actually amplifies your authenticity, without sacrificing your voice.

Kinsey breaks down the exact ways she uses AI to boost email engagement, open rates, and connection with her audience, all while keeping things human-first, creative, and actually fun! If you're even a little AI-curious, but you don’t want to lose the human-ness in your emails, this episode’s going to blow your mind (and possibly overhaul your inbox strategy).

TAKEAWAYS:

  • You don’t have to choose between using AI and sounding like yourself. Kinsey shares how her “human-first” approach ensures every email reflects your voice, not ChatGPT’s.
  • Kinsey’s “Quick Grab Prompts” are fun, swipeable prompts that she uses in her emails that skyrocket engagement and get your email list excited to hear from you.
  • Kinsey reveals her sneaky-smart “Scrolly Box” trick for delivering long prompts without cluttering up your emails, and how ChatGPT helped her build it.
  • Discover why “Catch the Latest” sections might just outshine the classic PS (!) and how short, punchy CTAs are outperforming wordy end-of-email pleas.
  • Kinsey gives tactical tips to ditch the dreaded em-dash, beat the cliches, and make ChatGPT sound more you than you might on your own.
