How does this automation work?

Bardeen's automation playbook leverages OpenAI to create email drafts tailored to a list of email addresses from Google Sheets, enhancing sales prospecting efforts. Personalization in sales emails can significantly increase response rates, and by using OpenAI's advanced language models, you can generate compelling email content at scale. This workflow simplifies the process of sending personalized emails to a list of prospects, saving valuable time and increasing the efficiency of your outreach campaigns.

Here's how this workflow automates email draft creation using OpenAI and Google Sheets:

  • Step 1: Extract emails from Google Sheets - Bardeen retrieves a table of data from a specified Google Sheets document and tab, focusing on the column that contains email addresses.
  • Step 2: Create an email list array - The playbook transforms the column from the table into an array, isolating the list of email addresses to be used for drafting emails.
  • Step 3: Compose email with OpenAI - Using OpenAI, the playbook creates a draft of an email based on a text prompt you provide. This allows for personalized and contextually relevant content for each email.
  • Step 4: Generate draft emails in Gmail - Finally, Bardeen creates draft emails in Gmail with the composed content for each recipient in the array. The subject line can also be specified to match the content of the message.
