How BoysClub does email marketing that converts
1. the $14,500 group chat
Objective
This email aims to engage subscribers with a mix of cultural commentary, crypto news, and community-driven product picks while reinforcing Boys Club’s brand voice as irreverent, insider-y, and community-first. It also subtly drives app downloads and referrals through embedded CTAs.
Why this works
The email masterfully blends high-stakes crypto drama with absurd cultural moments to create a tone that feels like an insider group chat, making complex topics digestible and entertaining without sacrificing credibility or edge.
How to implement
By featuring real-time tweet screenshots and unfiltered product reviews with zero affiliate bias, the campaign builds authentic trust with readers who crave unfiltered opinions over polished marketing, turning subscribers into loyal community participants.
Pro Tip
The 'Blessed by the Boys' product section lacks visual hierarchy, adding a small badge or icon next to the featured RNW cleanser would draw the eye and reinforce its 'staff pick' status without adding clutter. • The footer’s 'Get the app' and 'Start writing' buttons compete for attention with no clear priority; repositioning 'Get the app' as the primary CTA with a bolder color or larger size would better align with the campaign’s growth objective.
2. regulatory capture gf, roman empire bf
Objective
This email aims to engage subscribers with culturally relevant, intellectually stimulating content while subtly promoting community interaction and brand loyalty through humor, commentary, and visual storytelling. It also encourages social media followings and app adoption.
Why this works
The email brilliantly blends high-concept cultural commentary with irreverent humor, making complex topics like regulatory capture and AI performance feel accessible and entertaining without sacrificing depth or credibility.
How to implement
By curating viral tweets and community-generated AI art, the campaign transforms passive readers into active participants, fostering a sense of belonging and shared cultural literacy that strengthens brand affinity beyond transactional engagement.
Pro Tip
Add a clear, visually distinct CTA button above the fold, such as 'Read the TLDR Now', to reduce scroll friction and immediately guide readers toward the core content, especially since the current 'Subscribe' CTA appears too late and lacks urgency. • Include a brief, punchy summary or 'Why This Matters' blurb under each tweet or AI image to help readers quickly grasp the cultural or intellectual relevance, reducing cognitive load and increasing retention of key ideas.
3. It's so over
Objective
This email aims to re-engage subscribers with a punchy, culturally relevant tone while highlighting key crypto and Web3 happenings, driving clicks through humor, insider commentary, and community-driven events. It also subtly promotes brand loyalty via referral incentives and apparel.
Why this works
The email brilliantly blends irreverent humor with deep industry insight, making complex crypto topics feel accessible and entertaining, a winning combo for retaining Gen Z and millennial audiences who crave both substance and personality.
How to implement
By embedding real-time cultural moments like tweets and NFT drops into the newsletter’s structure, it transforms passive reading into an active, social experience that encourages sharing and discussion beyond the inbox.
Pro Tip
Add a visual countdown or urgency indicator next to the SmartCon RSVP link to boost last-minute conversions, since 'Last min RSVPs' implies scarcity but lacks visual reinforcement to trigger immediate action. • Reposition the 'Share The Boys' CTA higher in the email, perhaps after the TLDR section, to capitalize on reader momentum before they scroll past; currently, it’s buried below non-actionable content, reducing its conversion potential.
4. bigger than taylor and travis
Objective
This email aims to engage subscribers with a blend of tech news, cultural commentary, and community-generated content, positioning Boys Club as a culturally aware, forward-thinking brand that blends AI developments with pop culture relevance.
Why this works
The email brilliantly frames AI advancements through the lens of pop culture, using Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce as cultural anchors to make complex tech developments feel accessible and entertaining to a broad audience.
How to implement
By including real community-generated AI images and humorous social media snippets, the campaign builds authenticity and encourages user participation, subtly reinforcing that Boys Club is a platform where fans and creators co-shape the narrative.
Pro Tip
Add a secondary CTA above the footer, such as 'Download the AI Image Generator' or 'Join the Chatroom', to capitalize on the community-generated content section and drive immediate, relevant action. • Include a brief visual timeline or infographic in the TLDR section to illustrate the progression of multimodal AI developments, helping readers quickly grasp the significance without needing to parse dense paragraphs.
5. AI hardware stuns in new selfie
Objective
To engage subscribers with curated, culturally relevant tech and pop culture updates while subtly reinforcing BoysClub’s brand as a hub for cutting-edge AI and digital lifestyle content. The email aims to drive app downloads and newsletter retention through entertainment and exclusivity.
Why this works
The email brilliantly blends high-tech innovation with pop culture by spotlighting AI hardware at fashion week, making complex tech feel accessible and exciting through celebrity and runway context.
How to implement
By curating viral tweets and community-generated AI imagery, the email transforms passive readers into participants, subtly encouraging social sharing and reinforcing the brand’s role as a cultural tastemaker in tech.
Pro Tip
Add a countdown timer or urgency cue near the 'Get the app' CTA to leverage FOMO, especially since the email references time-sensitive events like the November 9th AI Pin reveal. • Reposition the 'Subscribe' button higher in the email, perhaps after the TLDR section, to capture early interest before readers scroll past, increasing conversion from casual skimmers.
6. I'm not mad I'm just disappointed
Objective
The email aims to engage subscribers with a mix of cultural commentary, crypto news, and community highlights while reinforcing brand identity through humor and insider tone. It also subtly drives referral behavior and app adoption by tying social sharing to exclusive merch rewards.
Why this works
The email masterfully blends irreverent humor with timely crypto commentary, creating a distinctive voice that feels like an insider newsletter rather than a corporate broadcast, which builds loyalty through authenticity and shared cultural references.
How to implement
By featuring user-generated content and community shoutouts under 'Blessed by the Boys,' the campaign turns passive readers into active participants, subtly encouraging engagement while reinforcing social proof and brand belonging without overt sales pressure.
Pro Tip
The CTA 'Share The Boys' is visually prominent but lacks urgency or social proof, adding a counter like '1,200 friends already shared' or a time-sensitive reward (e.g., 'First 50 sharers get a free hat') would boost conversion. • The 'Tweets of the Week' section, while entertaining, interrupts the narrative flow between crypto news and community highlights, reordering it after 'Blessed by the Boys' would create a smoother emotional arc from insight to community to action.
