FACE-TO-FACE FUNNELS Synthesia (Video) ChatGPT (Words)

Cold email is a cemetery—unless a “human” greets them first frame.

Prospects skim walls of text. A 12-second talking-head that says their name? They watch, they reply. But recording dozens of clips a day? Impossible. Solution: ChatGPT writes the personalised script, Synthesia renders a lifelike avatar that nails their name, company, and pain point. You install this workflow for sales teams and charge for the results—meetings booked, pipelines fattened.

One-liner promise: “Video emails that feel 1-to-1, produced at 50-per-hour scale.”

Pulse Check (proof it works)

Video thumbnail beats plain text

Vidyard benchmark (2025): emails with a smiling thumbnail lift click-through 2.3×. Synthesia gives you the smile without the webcam.

Scripts matter more than camera

Lavender’s 100M-email dataset: emails under 125 words with a first-line “you” statement get 40 % more replies. ChatGPT writes those in seconds.

Translation: friendly face + tight copy → replies → revenue. Your bundle supplies both in a lunch break.
