Fun fact:

Like any card-carrying movie fan, I went to see The Odyssey on opening weekend.

I’m a big Christopher Nolan fan…

And reviews were stellar.

So I went in with pretty high expectations.

Now, I don’t want to spoil anything…

But the very first scene is someone banging a wooden staff against a table…

… and the sound of that in the theater was positively DEAFENING.

Literal assault on my eardrums.

One that unfortunately did not let up for the rest of the movie.

I probably had my ears covered for 50% of it.

If not more.

Not fun given the 3-hour runtime lol

Which, in the end, made it REALLY hard to enjoy.

All because ONE dimension (the volume) was cranked so far past comfortable it drowned out the writing, acting, cinematography, etc.

In other words:

One jarring flaw can bury an A+ piece of content.

Which also applies to your inbox…

Because your emails have “knobs” like this too…

Especially if you’re using AI to write them…

One of which is:

How many AI "tells” there are.

The em dashes everywhere…

The unfettered “it’s not X, it’s Y” framing every time you make a point…

You know the signs.

Point is, you can write a killer story that tees up a top-performing offer…

Yet if the delivery makes them wince…

They cover their ears (i.e. delete, archive, or tune out) long before they ever reach the good part.

To make matters worse:

You usually can't hear it yourself.

Because YOU (or your AI) are the one who wrote it.

And it usually looks fine to whoever hit generate.

Luckily, though:

This is the one part that’s easy to fix…

If you grab a copy of my new Email Storyselling Skill Stack, that is.

Why?

Because not only does it build an incredibly rich voice profile based on your writing samples…

But it also runs a silent 15-point audit on every draft that hunts those “tells’ down and scrubs them before you ever lay eyes on it.

So what Claude prints out actually reads like you wrote it.

Not ChatGPT in a dress and heels.

Sound good?

I hope so.

The Skill Stack is normally $500.

But you can grab it for 70% off until August 3 at midnight.

Which comes out to just $150.

At that price, all it takes is one or two sales to get an ROI.

Yet you’ve lifetime access + updates to the entire stack.

So if you’d like to “AI-proof” your emails so your subscribers stop tuning out and start buying from you on a daily basis…
