CTMLS.ORG — MAILPOET WELCOME SEQUENCE

3-Email Onboarding Series

=========================================

 

EMAIL 1 — IMMEDIATE (upon signup)

=========================================

 

SUBJECT:

"You just made a smart move."

 

PREVIEW TEXT:

"Here's where to start on ctmls.org"

 

---

 

Hi [First Name],

 

Welcome to ctmls.org.

 

You just joined a community of

students and families who decided

to do something most people don't —

think about money before it

becomes a problem.

 

That's not small. That's everything.

 

Here's what we believe:

 

You don't have to graduate broke.

You don't have to figure this out alone.

And you don't need a finance degree

to make smart decisions starting today.

 

---

 

WHERE TO START:

 

If you want to eliminate debt

before it starts →

[The Debt Destruction Toolkit]

 

If you want to build income

while you study →

[The Student Hustle Playbook]

 

If you want to see how we

use AI to do all of this faster →

[Meet the AI Team]

 

---

 

One step at a time.

We're here for all of them.

 

— Dennis

Founder, ctmls.org

 

P.S. — "Seek excellence,

not perfection."

Start somewhere. Start today.

 

=========================================

EMAIL 2 — DAY 3

=========================================

 

SUBJECT:

"The question every student

should ask before freshman year"

 

PREVIEW TEXT:

"Most don't. The ones who do

change everything."

 

---

 

Hi [First Name],

 

Most students ask:

"What should I major in?"

 

The students who graduate ahead ask:

"How do I make sure I'm not

paying for this decision

for the next 20 years?"

 

That second question changes

how you choose a school,

apply for aid, plan your summers,

and build skills that pay.

 

It's not cynical.

It's strategic.

 

---

 

THIS WEEK — ONE SIMPLE MOVE:

 

Run this prompt in any AI

(Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini):

 

"I am a [grade level] student

in [city, state] interested in

[field of study].

Find me 5 local scholarships

I likely qualify for.

Include deadlines and

application requirements."

 

Takes 2 minutes.

Could save thousands.

 

That's what we mean by

working smarter — not harder.

 

---

 

More tools coming your way

later this week.

P.S. — The Debt Destruction page

has three more moves like this.

EMAIL 3 — DAY 7

=========================================

 

SUBJECT:

"What I learned from a

golf coach, a broken furnace,

and 40 years in the market"

 

PREVIEW TEXT:

"The same truth kept showing up."

 

---

 

Hi [First Name],

 

I want to tell you something

about why I built this.

 

As a player on a high school

golf team, my coach reminded us —

he didn't play favorites.

He played the best four.

The team won when the right

people were in the right roles.

 

As a general contractor,

I lost three weeks on a home build

because one subcontractor

didn't show. One weak link

costs everyone.

 

As a college softball coach,

I learned that offense and defense

demand different strengths.

The smartest move is putting

each player exactly where they shine.

 

The same truth kept showing up:

 

Build the right team.

Align everyone with the mission.

Then get out of the way.

 

---

 

That's what I'm doing with AI.

That's what I'm teaching here.

 

And that's what YOU can do —

starting with your own

financial future right now.

 

You don't need a perfect plan.

You need the right team

and the courage to start.

 

"Seek excellence, not perfection."

 

The Hustle Handbook is your

first set of tools.

And if you ever have a question —

just reply to this email.

I read every one.

beats an unplowed field.

Every single time.
