Do’s & Dont’s: Using AI in Nonprofit Email Campaigns

October 15, 2025 / Marketing Strategy / Alex Gallagher

Using AI in nonprofit email campaigns can transform how your organization connects with supporters. AI can save time and improve engagement, but it’s not foolproof. A few simple do’s and don’ts can help you make the most of this technology and avoid its pitfalls.

Why Use AI for Email Marketing?

AI can be a powerful lever in your nonprofit email strategy. Especially for small nonprofits lacking a dedicated content team, AI helps reduce the time and cost of an effective email strategy. Even just by generating the first draft of an email, nonprofits can save hours on monthly newsletters or fundraising campaigns.

Along with its ease of use, a key benefit to AI is its data-backed creativity. Depending on the prompt used, copy can be tailored for your audience, including for specific donor segments. AI tools can also reference email marketing data to optimize your campaigns.Tools like Mailchimp’s “Write with AI” draw on years of campaign data to generate content backed by evidence.

With all of its benefits, AI can certainly be a gamechanger. But it isn’t magic – AI needs the appropriate prompt and references to deliver results. Here’s how to make it work for your organization.

Writing an AI Prompt

The quality of an AI’s output depends on a high quality prompt. Here are a few tips to build prompts for nonprofit email campaigns, with examples you can use:

Be specific & contextual: Provide specifications for your email’s content, length, goals, CTAs, and brand voice in order to get the best results.
1. Example: “Write a 200–300 word fundraising appeal email to lapsed donors (those who haven’t donated in 18 months). Tone: warm, encouraging. Focus on the impact of our free community classes. Include a CTA to donate now.
Include examples: You can paste a past email and ask for a quick re-write, or provide a bullet-point outline and let AI fill in the blanks
1. Example: Write a 4-part email with the following sections: Intro, problem, solution, CTA). Each section should be no longer than 100 words and must start with a subheading.
Use follow-up prompts: Working with AI is like a conversation. Once the AI responds to your request with a draft, follow up with further prompting to refine the result.
1. Example: Good start! Condense this email’s length by 30%, make the tone more conversational, and add our tagline “Making waves in wellness.”
Repeat your successes: Before you start a draft of your next email, paste in a few previous campaigns and results. Then, ask the AI to reference what’s working in your next campaign.
1. Example: Our last 3 emails to monthly donors are pasted below. All of them had open rates around 18%, and the Giving Day email had a very high click rate of 5%. Based on those results, write a draft email in our brand voice that our audience is likely to click on.
Reference industry best practices: AI tools are generators, not dictionaries. Always remind the model to align its language with strategies already shown to boost engagement.
1. Example: Search for 10 reliable online sources that give a detailed list of data-backed email marketing best practices… Now, use those best practices to create a draft of this email.

If you take all these suggestions into account, you may find that the prompt is longer than expected. This is nothing to panic about! As you continue to use an AI model, it will build a memory of what you’ve already asked. Then, you can always reference a previous prompt again to have the AI generate a similar response.

Refining AI-Generated Content

Once you have an AI draft, you’ll need to give it a quick polish so it’s ready for your supporters. Here are a few suggestions for nonprofits that want to get their email perfect.

Check factual accuracy: AI is known to make assumptions, or even hallucinate false information. Review your content for any false assertions.
Align voice and tone: Overly-promotional language is a common complaint among AI users. Make sure the language reflects your nonprofit’s mission and personality. If you write in a warm, humble tone, tweak phrasing to match that rather than letting the AI sound overly promotional.
Inject human details: Add stories, real names, and quotes manually to give your email a heartfelt, human touch.

Some of these steps must be taken manually in your email marketing software, while others can be done using follow-up prompting with AI. In either case, be sure to give the email a final proofread before it goes out.

When AI Goes Wrong

AI is powerful, but it has risks. Knowing the pitfalls helps you avoid costly mistakes. Here are a few examples we’ve run into, plus tips to address them:

Hallucinations & fabrications: AI sometimes confidently states false facts, names, or data. This is easiest to catch and refine with a human eye.
Tone or messaging drift: Without strong prompts, AI may produce copy that’s salesy, too casual, or off-brand. Follow-up prompting can ensure you won’t alienate your donors.
Deliverability issues: Occasionally, AI can generate text that is likely to trigger spam filters. See our Deliverability Troubleshooting Guide for more tips on how to land in the inbox.

Just like a human coworker, AI can make mistakes. As you automate, keep robust proofreading procedures in place to ensure the quality of generated content. When things go wrong, a human touch is the best tool to fix them.

Generating Subject Lines with AI

Subject lines are a perfect use case for AI because they thrive on variety, brevity, and experimentation. Plus, AI can remember previous subjects you’ve generated in order to provide similar options.

Here are a few prompts you can try for your own AI email marketing strategy:

Generate 8 subject lines (5–7 words) for a donor reactivation email focused on community stories.
Suggest 10 subject line variations for a volunteer recruitment campaign. Include one with an emoji and one that asks a question
Our last subject line “Share Your Love” got a 47% open rate. Based on that success, suggest 10 new subjects for the email pasted below.

For the highest chance of success, ask for 10-15 options with varying styles. Specify strategies that you’d like the AI to use, like urgency, curiosity, or numbers. Having variety improves the likelihood that one of your subject lines will resonate strongly with your audience.

November 25, 2024 / Mailchimp How-To, Marketing Strategy / Alex Gallagher

As the holiday season approaches, it’s time to maximize your emails’ impact. Mailchimp has rolled out some exciting new features to help you craft engaging, professional emails with ease. Whether you’re fine-tuning your newsletter or boosting sales, these updates are perfect for making the most of your holiday email marketing in 2024.

1. Mailchimp’s AI Content Suggestions

Let Mailchimp’s built-in AI take the guesswork out of email creation! This powerful feature can help you generate:

Image alt text: Boost accessibility with alt text for all images & graphics.
Email copy: Quickly draft holiday promos and announcements.
Subject lines: Craft attention-grabbing preheader text

Like any AI tool, we recommend giving the generated content a quick tune-up to correct any errors or awkward phrasing. From our experience as Pro-Partners, this tool is a great way to save time, especially during busy marketing seasons!

2. Re-Send to Non-Openers in Browser

Good news: you can now re-send emails to non-openers directly in your browser, a feature previously only available on mobile. This is a great way to make sure no one misses your top-priority emails.

Pro tip: Use this feature mindfully – Re-sending too much can lead to increased spam reports and lower engagement. Focus on your most critical, time-sensitive campaigns to avoid overwhelming subscribers. For more info on sending schedules, check out our article on send frequency.

3. New Header, Body, and Footer Styling Options

Mailchimp’s new builder makes consistent email design easier than ever. As of 2024, new builder users can now separate their email into header, body, and footer sections. Then, users can set unique styles for each section. This makes it easier than ever to use alternating background colors without going block-by-block or layout-by layout.

If you spend a lot of time in the new template builder, you know this is a holiday game changer!

4. Rounded Corners, Margins and Borders

Add some pizazz to your holiday emails with Mailchimp’s updated styling options. Here are some of our favorite functionalities launched in 2024:

These features make it easier than ever to add personality & visual appeal to your holiday emails. Give them a try on your own, or book a one-on-one walkthrough.

5. Product Recommendations

This feature was actually included in the launch of Mailchimp’s new template builder, and it continues to deliver for e-commerce users! Add the block to your template, choose how many products you want to display, and Mailchimp will pull info directly from your website.

Users can choose to display:

Items a subscriber has recently viewed
Products left in a subscriber’s cart

How to Use AI in Email Marketing with icon of a head with gears in it thinking about email

How to Use AI in Email Marketing (with Prompts)

July 23, 2024 / Mailchimp How-To, Marketing Strategy / Alex Gallagher

As AI technology continues to evolve, many email marketers are using AI tools to level up their marketing. Using AI, even a novice marketer can quickly draft emails, revise copy, or develop a content strategy. From our experience as a full-service email marketing agency, we’ve uncovered several AI functionalities that help marketers soar!

How to Choose an AI Tool

Since the recent boom in AI technology, a plethora of tools have been made for seemingly every topic. There are tools to generate ad copy, blog posts, and everything in between. Ultimately, most publicly available AI generators are based on OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Rather than paying for a subscription to a language model tailored to your industry, we recommend starting with a free ChatGPT account.

Large language models are built to adapt in response to user input, so you can tailor ChatGPT’s responses to your needs without a paid subscription to a more tailored AI bot.

Drafting Email Copy with AI

In email marketing, AI often best serves as a brainstorming partner. While chatbots still run into factual errors, they can provide a great first draft that you can customize to your liking. Here are some prompts you can use to generate copy for your next email:

Generate concise copy for a nonprofit marketing email. The goal of the campaign is to boost donations, and the nonprofit organizes tutoring and classes to improve youth literacy. Please keep the copy between 200 and 1000 words and include a CTA that links to our donation page (insert URL),
Create 3 drafts of a brief marketing email for our small jewelry company. We are highlighting the spring gold collection. Please include 3 products with price and a 20% discount code.
Show me 2 drafts of a 250-500 word email promoting my company’s Labor Day sale. Include the code LABOR30 for 30% off.

As you can see from the prompts above, specificity is essential when using AI. The more clear you are about word count, tone, and content, the more likely it is the tool will generate something useful. Don’t leave your AI bot to make assumptions – They are likely to be inaccurate or give your email a less human sound. Plus, emails with a high volume of grammar and spelling errors can even cause deliverability problems down the line.

Revising Marketing Copy

After you’ve taken the first stab at writing your email copy, AI can swoop in to help you revise it. Just copy and paste the text into your AI chatbot and try any of the following prompts:

I’ve pasted copy for a marketing email above. Can you make it more concise and engaging?
Please correct the tone in the email pasted above. The tone should be friendly and direct, matching the language on [your website URL]
Our organization is working on a newsletter for our recurring donors. Based on the email pasted above, what are 5 things we should improve to follow current email marketing best practices?

As always, you’ll want to give the revised copy ChatGPT spits out a final pass and potentially make some corrections for accuracy.

If the results are not to your liking, don’t hesitate to provide some more direction. A prompt like “Looks good – Can you make it more concise?” can work wonders for your writing.

Generating Quality Subject Lines

AI tools can enhance your email marketing by generating effective subject lines. Many email marketers understand the value of A/B testing but may get bogged down by creating multiple subject variations for every email. With AI, you can quickly generate subjects that match your brand’s personality and follow best practices.

Here are some prompts you can use to generate email marketing subject lines with AI:

Create 10 engaging subject lines for a promotional email about our new summer collection. At least 7 of the options should include an emoji.
Generate 5 personalized subject lines for a follow-up email to customers who have recently made a purchase. Each subject line should be 3-5 words long.
Suggest 12 subject lines for an email campaign announcing our upcoming webinar on digital marketing trends. The subjects should be refined, professional, and formal.

Using AI to Develop a Content Strategy

AI can streamline your content strategy by analyzing audience behavior and preferences, helping you identify what content resonates most.

To use AI for a content strategy, you’ll need to provide some record of your previous campaign results. If you’re a Mailchimp user, consider exporting your campaign analytics for the AI to reference. Mailchimp’s custom reports are a great tool for retrieving your analytics data.

Here are some prompts to generate a stellar email marketing strategy with AI:

I’m pasting the open rates, click rates, and subject lines for our past 20 campaigns below. Please analyze the results and make 5 recommendations for next year’s content strategy.
Here is a list of last year’s campaigns with each email’s send date, subject line, and open rate. Based on these results, please generate a calendar of campaigns for the next year that includes elements of what worked well this year.
Please generate a list of topics for our monthly newsletter based on current trends in [your industry]. For each topic, include 3 concise subject lines and 3 CTA options.

When generating a content strategy, it can be helpful to break the project into smaller tasks. Instead of asking your chatbot to perform everything at once, prompt it to generate some topics, then subject lines, and so on.

You can even offer links to outside resources (like Pure Firefly’s blog…) that the AI should reference for best practices.

Mailchimp’s Built-In AI Tools

A handful of AI tools are available within Mailchimp to help users generate email copy and automations. These tools can be a great way to try out AI generation without creating an account on any new platform.

These are the currently available features, with more on the horizon in the coming months.

AI-Powered Journeys: Under the “Pre-Built Journeys” tab, Mailchimp offers 3 AI-generated automations to help engage new subscribers, recover abandoned carts, and encourage lapsed customers to purchase again.
AI Content Writing: When writing an email or subject line, you may see a little blue icon pop up below your text. Just click on the icon, type in a prompt, and Mailchimp’s AI will generate the text for you!
Creative Assistant: You can use the creative assistant to generate graphics for your email header or body. Just add some images, a line of text, and your brand colors, and Mailchimp will generate pleasing designs to use in any email!

For now, Mailchimp’s AI tools are available to users on the standard plan or above. If you’ve been looking for a reason to upgrade, this could be the time!

What is SubjectLine.com: Pros and Cons

December 10, 2023 / Product Reviews / Alex Gallagher

SubjectLine.com is a vital tool to ensure your emails stand out in those crowded inboxes of your receivers. Let’s talk about SubjecLine.com and examine its pros and cons to help you decide whether it’s the right choice for your email marketing strategy.

What is SubjectLine.com?

SubjectLine.com is an online platform designed to help email marketers improve the effectiveness of their email subject lines. It offers a simple and user-friendly interface, allowing users to test, analyze, and optimize their subject lines for maximum engagement and open email rates.
This tool helps marketers generate increased response rates and improved inbox deliverability.

Pros of Using SubjectLine.com

SubjectLine.com displays email deliverability and marketing results, adding and subtracting points based on subject line best practices. Here are some of its advantages:

Free to Use: SubjectLine.com is a FREE top-ranked email subject line testing tool.
Increase Open Rates: One of the most significant advantages of SubjectLine.com is its ability to boost email open rates. By analyzing your subject lines, it provides recommendations and insights on how to create subject lines that are more likely to capture the recipient’s attention. This will result in increased open rates, which is crucial for the success of email marketing campaigns.
A/B Testing: SubjectLine.com allows you to perform A/B testing with your subject lines. This approach empowers you to modify your email marketing strategies and adjust your content to the preferences of your audience.
Time and Cost Efficient: SubjectLine.com can save you time and money by streamlining the email marketing process. You can use the platform to improve your subject lines and make your campaigns more successful instead of relying on trial and error.
Learning Resources: You can learn more about the underlying effectiveness of the subject lines by consulting the educational tools and guidelines from SubjectLine.com.

Cons of Using SubjectLine.com

While SubjectLine.com has many benefits, there may be better fits for some businesses. The tool only focuses on subject lines so here are some of its disadvantages.

Subscription Costs: It may be necessary for you to sign up for a subscription plan in order to access premium features. The subscription fees can increase your marketing costs, which may not be acceptable for individuals or small businesses on a limited budget.
Limited to Subject Lines: Subject lines are the main emphasis of SubjectLine.com. Email marketing success depends on many variables, including content quality, audience segmentation, timeliness, and others. Marketers who want their email marketing campaigns to succeed should rely on more than subject line optimization.
Subjectivity: While SubjectLine.com provides data-driven insights, email marketing can still be subjective. What resonates with one audience may not work for another. Therefore, relying solely on the platform’s recommendations without understanding your specific audience’s preferences might not yield the best results.

Conclusion

SubjectLine.com is a powerful tool that can help email marketers create subject lines that capture recipients’ attention and improve open rates. Its real-time feedback, A/B testing capabilities, and educational resources make it a valuable asset for email marketing campaigns. However, it’s important to remember that subject lines are just one piece of the email marketing puzzle. To achieve the best results, it’s essential to consider other aspects of email marketing as well.

Email Marketing Glossary: 10 Terms You Should Know

November 9, 2023 / Email Basics / Alex Gallagher

Do you speak email marketing language? For email newbies, the unique terms marketers use can be a roadblock to getting started. If you want to cut through the jargon and make the most of your chosen email marketing tools, learning the language is an easy first step. Here are 10 terms to get you started on your path to email mastery.

Segmentation

In email marketing, segmentation involves dividing your email list into smaller categories based on specific characteristics or behaviors. With segmentation, you can send subscribers the most relevant information. Some common methods for segmentation include:

Interest groups
Segmentation by demographics (age, gender, etc.)
Segmentation by location
Behavior-based segmentation
Purchase-based segmentation
Engagement-based segmentation

Email marketing tools like Mailchimp provide straightforward options to begin segmenting your audience. Check out our guide to tags, groups, and segments for more info.

Personalization

Personalization means customizing email content for individual recipients. This may use a recipient’s name or past behavior, and is often simpler to set up than it sounds! Marketing platforms like Mailchimp and Klaviyo use merge tags to customize how an email will appear to each subscriber.

Deliverability

In simple terms, deliverability means keeping your emails out of spam. Several factors can impact deliverability, including domain configuration, list hygiene, and compliance with GDPR and CAN-SPAM regulations. Because deliverability is impacted by so many different variables, working with an email marketing expert is often the best way to address deliverability issues.

Accessibility

Accessibility in email marketing means designing emails everyone can enjoy. Subscribers with disabilities, especially people using screen readers, can often run into difficulties reading the content of an inaccessible email. By using alt text and high-contrast colors, email marketers can improve their emails’ accessibility and make them available to all.

Engagement

In email marketing, engagement is the level of responsiveness your audience has to your content. Some common ways of measuring engagement include click rates, open rates, and revenue. For more information, check out our article on email marketing metrics.

A/B Testing

A/B testing is the practice of sending two different versions of an email to a sample of your audience to determine which performs better. You may A/B test an email’s content, “from” name, subject line, or other elements.

Call-to-Action (CTA)

An email’s CTA prompts recipients to take a specific action, such as making a purchase or signing up. It typically takes the form of a text link or a button. Some emails may include multiple CTA’s, while others focus in on one main action.

List Hygiene

List hygiene is routine maintenance for your email audience. Marketers with good list hygiene regularly remove inactive and/or invalid email addresses. Maintaining a clean email list can help with deliverability. If you’ve never cleaned your list, try starting with a straightforward tool like Zerobounce.

Subject Lines

Subject lines are the brief text that appears at the top of an email. They typically give subscribers a glimpse of the email’s content, and can be thought of as an email’s “title.” All emails are required to have a subject line, so developing an engaging subject is essential for email marketing success.

Preview Text

Preview text is a snippet of text that accompanies the subject line. Depending on your email client, it may display slightly shorter or longer than the subject line. Preview text often contains a snippet of text from the email copy itself.

Go Beyond the Basics with Pure Firefly

Maximizing your email marketing success takes more than a grasp of the basics. Pure Firefly offers 1-on-1 training sessions on the nuances of Mailchimp strategy, template design, and campaign analytics.
