i had a call yesterday with a customer whose reply rate had dropped from 5% to sub 1%. he assumed it was the infrastructure. it wasn't. it was copy fatigue. he hadn't changed his hooks in months.
we come up with about 10 hooks a week internally. that's the cadence that keeps our sends fresh across 250,000+ inboxes and millions of monthly cold emails.
this swipe file is the exact system we use to do it.
how to use it:
- start with the Copy Fatigue Diagnostic if you already have campaigns live. it tells you whether your copy is the problem before you change anything else.
- rotate through the Hook Templates by tension pattern when you sit down to write. one hook per pattern, not ten variations of the same one.
- run the 10-Hooks-Per-Week Prompt Template every monday. block one hour, produce the week's rotation, schedule them in.
- use the Industry-Trend Awareness prompts to spot the next TikTok-shop-affiliate level shift before your competitors do.
steal all of it. fill in the brackets. ship it this week.
