Launch a Segmented Marketing Email Campaign

A permission-aware campaign whose audience, message, test, delivery, and evaluation are explicitly defined.

The process

Work it in this order.

  1. State the campaign objective and the one primary action recipients should understand or take.
  2. Build a segment from relevant, current audience attributes or behavior and preview the actual recipients before sending.
  3. Exclude unsubscribed, suppressed, invalid, duplicate, and otherwise ineligible contacts.
  4. Draft sender identity, subject, preview text, body, links, and a clear unsubscribe path; create accessible plain-text and mobile-ready versions.
  5. If testing, choose one variable, define the winning metric and test population in advance, and keep other material elements stable.
  6. Send proofs, verify personalization fallbacks and tracking links, obtain approval, and schedule for the intended audience's context.
  7. After delivery, evaluate delivery failures, unsubscribes, complaints, clicks, and downstream outcomes; document the next change.

Bring this

Inputs the cat will ask for.

  • Campaign objective and offer
  • Permissioned contact data
  • Segmentation rules
  • Brand and compliance requirements

Router + one playbook

Route first. Choose one.

Cat Paw loads one playbook per task rather than merging several. Start with this router; the remaining paths are workflow-specific candidates it can inspect.

  • Router: marketing-pack
  • skills/marketing/copywriting/SKILL.md
  • skills/marketing/launch/SKILL.md
  • skills/marketing/cro/SKILL.md

Guardrails

The boundaries travel with the prompt.

  • Send only where the organization has an appropriate legal basis and honor suppression immediately.
  • Do not use misleading sender names, subjects, or urgency.
  • Limit personalization to data collected and used for a disclosed purpose.
  • Review complaint and unsubscribe signals, not just clicks.

Done means

A checkable finish.

The final audience is previewed and suppression-clean, all message variants pass proof checks, the campaign is sent or scheduled, and its evaluation metric and review date are recorded.

AI acts. You decide.

A human brake for AI.

Latch shows every command, click, and file change before it happens — so you can say yes, no, or not yet.
