Email marketing is the foundation of any digital business. Whether you’re launching a product, nurturing leads, or simply keeping your audience engaged, your email list is one of the most valuable assets you own. But let’s be real—writing emails can feel hard!
That’s why, in this episode I sat down with Meg, one of the KSA’s in-house copywriting queens, to walk through the 5-Part Email Copy Framework that makes writing emails so much easier (and more effective!).
Why Email Marketing Matters
Before we dive into the framework, let’s address the big question—do people actually read emails anymore? YES. In fact, studies show that email marketing generates an average ROI of $42 for every $1 spent.
Unlike social media, where algorithms decide what gets seen, you own your email list. That means you have direct access to your audience, and when done right, email marketing can work for you—even while you sleep.
But the problem? Many business owners feel overwhelmed by email marketing. They don’t know what to write, how often to send emails, or how to actually get people to open and engage with their messages.
That’s where the 5-Part Email Copy Framework comes in!
The 5-Part Email Copy Framework
Whether you’re writing a sales email, nurture email, or launch sequence, this framework keeps your emails structured, clear, and high-converting.
1️⃣ Hook – Grabbing Attention Instantly
People get hundreds of emails a day. If your email doesn’t hook them in right away, they’ll move on.
Ways to hook your reader:
- Start with a bold statement or statistic (“Did you know 90% of people never open their emails?”)
- Open with a relatable question (“Ever feel like writing emails is a total headache?”)
- Use a short, punchy sentence to draw them in
2️⃣ Value – Give Them a Reason to Keep Reading
Nobody opens an email just to be sold to. Instead, focus on providing real value before making your pitch.
Ways to add value:
- Share a quick tip or insight
- Offer a solution to a common problem
- Tell a short, engaging story
3️⃣ Connection – Make It Personal
One of the biggest mistakes in email marketing? Writing like a robot instead of a real person. Your readers want to hear from you, not a corporate-sounding email.
Ways to build connection:
- Write like you’re talking to a friend
- Share a personal experience
- Use conversational language
4️⃣ Offer – Present Your Product or Service
Now that you’ve hooked them, delivered value, and built connection, it’s time to introduce your offer. The key? Make it feel natural.
Ways to introduce an offer smoothly:
- Relate it back to the problem you’re solving
- Show them why it matters
- Keep it clear and simple (no over-explaining!)
5️⃣ CTA (Call to Action) – Tell Them What to Do Next
Every email should have one clear action step. Whether it’s reading a blog, buying a product, or signing up for a webinar, make it easy for them to say “yes.”
Ways to improve your CTA:
- Use strong, action-driven language (“Join now!” vs. “Click here”)
- Make it stand out visually (bold text, buttons, links)
- Place it more than once in longer emails
Final Thoughts: Use This Framework in Your Next Email!
