One campaign. One game changing AI personalization strategy.

Hey, Patrick here.

Bobby is a ghostwriter for professionals who want to publish books that grow their brand.

Consultants. Coaches. Founders.
All experts with a story, but no time (or ability) to write it.

Bobby knew his clients were out there.
But when he tried cold email, it flopped.
Why?

Because sp*mming 500 CEOs with the same message about "writing their book" felt… desperate.
And worse it didn’t work.

His reply rate was brutal.
His list was solid.
But his strategy?

Just another generic sales email buried in a busy inbox.

The Shift: Give Before You Ask

When Bobby came to us, he didn’t want another “angle.”
He wanted something that stood out.

He wanted to stop sp*mming prospects and send them emails that felt real and personal.

So we got to work.
Instead of telling prospects what he does...
We showed them what their book could be.

Here’s what we did:

  1. Pulled a list of professionals who’d benefit from a book (think: execs, advisors, SaaS founders)

  2. Fed their background info into AI

  3. Generated a personalized book title idea + a compelling hook for the premise

  4. Dropped it into a cold email that looked like this:

Hi Alex—Saw your work with [Company] and wondered if you’ve though about writing a book. Thought you might enjoy this book idea:
“From Founder to Framework: Building Scalable Systems That Run Without You”
Based on your background, that’s a book that could open doors fast.
If the idea resonates, are you open to a quick chat?

– Bobby

No push.
No fluff.
Just immediate value in the inbox.

The Results?

Campaign #1 (just 1,324 leads):
✅ 22 positive replies (1 in 74)
✅ 7 booked meetings
✅ $20,000+ in closed business—with more in play

Bobby stopped begging.
He started serving.

And AI powered personalization made it easy to do it at scale, without burning his list or sending the same thing to everyone.
