SmartWriter.ai Review & Guide - Personalize Your Email & LinkedIn Outreach With One Liners ✍📩

What's going on guys in today's video we are going to be writing a complete blog post using an AI copywriting tool called smart Rider we're going to be doing a complete review and guide let's dive right into it [Music] all right so if you're not familiar with AI copywriting tools you will learn a lot in this video this is smartwriter.ai's website as you can see here their headline is generate thousands of personalized emails that get you eight times more replies within

Minutes using AI never waste time researching or writing writing personalized emails again automate your entire Outreach process 40 times faster and six times cheaper than humans alright so they're um kind of unique feature I would say with smartwriter opposed to other copywriting tools such as Jasper Word Hero niches I've done a lot of reviews on different tools on this YouTube channel so you can check those tools out as well but the difference between smart Rider and a lot of other tools

Is that they have this personalized Outreach feature so if you're a marketing agency a coach a consultant anyone really running a B2B business or just an entrepreneur in general you you're doing organic Outreach this could be potentially a tool that you may want to add to your Arsenal so we can see here you can do LinkedIn personalization personalized icebreakers backlink personalization and contextual pitches all right um so we'll dive into this and we'll kind of see the quality of all this

And see what we actually can generate using this personalization so obviously we are looking at their website you know this is more of an established website they got a lot a lot of reviews and you know just different features about what their tool actually does I am actually doing kind of a first reaction to this tool so you'll get to see what I actually think live of this specific tool you can see here they got a lot of reviews you can

Actually get a seven day free trial I'll leave a link in the description below their features are mainly personalized called email Outreach LinkedIn Chrome extension they have that they have deep enrichment uh personalized LinkedIn Outreach automated SEO backlink Outreach and I'm assuming a lot more but we'll have to dive in and see they have some resources a university ultimate cold email guide blogs success stories and we'll quickly look over their pricing so they're pricing on a yearly basis you get 20

Off but let's just take a look at the monthly for the basic plan it's going to cost this 50 59 bucks per month this is good for marketings marketers and uh scale up businesses so with 59 bucks per month you get 15 personalized lines per lead you get 400 leads slash credits you get full access to all AI tools email generator personalized LinkedIn Outreach use both for outreach and copywriting unlimited credit rollovers so these credits do not expire and unlimited excuse

Me unlimited projects and then of course export AI content personalizations you can do personalized icebreakers Instagram comments cold emails LinkedIn outreaches Google reviews backlink outreaches and with the other plans it pretty much just scales up the limits so for 149 bucks you get 15 personalized lines per lead you get 1200 leads and then pretty much the same sort of stuff and then for the Pro Plan is 359 per month this is for large marketing agencies or marketing teams so 3 500

Leads per month and then it looks to be the same stuff as the other plans right so plans up to 25 000 credits are also available so if you want I believe you probably have to contact them and get a custom plan but let's dive right into it my issue with a lot of these tools I did a review on another tool yesterday an AI copywriting tool that is similar as a similar feature for our business personally we need a lot

Of outflows going out our whole thing is about volume so these limits right here kind of wouldn't necessarily work for us I mean it's good maybe if you're just starting out but for me personally I mean we like to do a large volume of outflow so um you know but at the same time you're gonna get higher quality Outreach so potentially higher quality results right so let's actually dive into the back end of the tool and see what it's made of

But first quickly I'm going to show you they also have a great Facebook community so cold email and Linkedin growth hacks they currently have 2.3k members and it's an active Community right here so they are actively growing their Community their brand as well as obviously their tool and improving with different you know development Engineers engineering Etc so here is the Smart Rider AI dashboard I currently just sign up for a new account so I have the free trial of seven days

Which you like I said you can get in the link in the description below if you want to test this out with me and right here we have unlimited emails AI warm up up to 80 open rates at scale so oh I guess this is a different tool they have a smart lead so this is just for warming up your email accounts I typically wouldn't use this we use a tool called stridelades.com so it's a part of our stride Suite you

Can check that out I have uh videos going over stride leads and everything like that and uh you know you get unlimited warming up unlimited senders sequences Etc but let's look quickly at our what we have here in the dashboard and the interface so we have projects lead list Integrations profile get started our usage credits upgrade plan we have some introduction videos and tutorials over here from The Help Center we have our help center right here we have our profile uh

Get Chrome extension so you can actually download their Chrome extension and I believe this helps uh finding verifying email addresses and I guess you can personalize one-liners in seconds so that's cool that they have a Chrome extension um now there are templates let's start at the project section so we can see all templates right here if we want to look at all templates you can see every single template they have now they don't have so many templates they have a decent

Amount of templates for an AI copywriting tool but the main like I said the main difference they have is the personalized Outreach templates now I think typically majority of their users that actually use Smart writer would probably you know get it for their Outreach Outreach side of things right so backlink personalization personalized LinkedIn Outreach company based personalization personalized Google review Icebreaker generator and then you have some generic components of their AI tools so converting subject lines project title generator for Shopify

Project description blog title blog intro meta description blog outline extend topic all these different stuff Instagram YouTube pass feature Google ad headline Twitter generator etc etc and you can of course filter these by you know popular templates so we can see smart scripts smart script helps you automate AI personalization across multiple channels and 168 data points in one go so we'll test this out we'll see what this is I think this is a new feature right here and then yeah so

These are the most popular as you can see like I said the personalization and now they have this smart script thing so I don't know what this is I actually haven't seen this before this is a new feature so we'll see what this actually is in just a moment and we can see the personalization Outreach the personalized Outreach the email content e-commerce blogs content expander ideas for social platforms landing page marketing strategies um add social media content all right so we're

Gonna look at in this video mainly the a bit of the personalization the smart script and then we'll do a bit of the blogging aspect in to show you how you could actually build a Blog as long as we don't run out of credits along the way right so smart script let's see you can create a script I believe this may be so welcome to Smart script smart script helps you automate AI personalization across multiple channels and 60 data points in

One go automate routine actions so you can get back to the kind of work only humans can do create your own workflow now alright so maybe I'll just quickly see what this is about hello when I finally want to introduce you to LinkedIn if not linking the website okay so basically from what I can see here let's just try this so these are kind of like workflows you can set up they're smart scripts so you can um follow up email personalization

Um do you want to generate personalization for your follow-up emails yes want multiple emails no continue with single okay so you could set this up if you so I guess you can connect uh smart Rider to actually send emails as well for you um so workflow overview drag and drop the preference you want to Output the output to be so LinkedIn personalization using the prospect LinkedIn data so let's just say for example LinkedIn oh so I guess that you can basically

Okay so you can set this up this will use one credit so you can set this up what preference you want the output to be so LinkedIn personalization using the data then catchy personalization content based on website URL deep personalization based upon News podcast interviews and medium web stack and then personalize Google review icebreader generator perfect for offline businesses real estate so so let's see what this actually does let's just continue so you would need to upload a CSV um okay

So we're not going to do all that in this video because this is just a new feature that I'm I'm just seeing here but I believe you would upload the CSV there's a video tutorial for this it does look like a unique cool feature maybe if you want me to do a full video actually going over this you can let me know in the comments down below this is something new that they added but it does look pretty cool I believe

That you can kind of just add more data and maybe combine all the customizations into one it seems like and then generate uh content or personalized lines for you know all those specific data that we showed that I was just showing you so like you could uh when we were just at the other page where it showed the order of what the data would be generated that's what I'm thinking but I have to actually do a deep dive later on and

Kind of see um kind of see what that actually entails and how it actually works but um okay so projects you can actually set up just as a side note you can set up new project folders so this would be good for you know if you're managing different projects or clients or whatever the case may be you can do that now let's actually dive into some of the more basic tools such as the LinkedIn personalized Outreach so this works great if

You work uh you know have a LinkedIn presence if your current lead list does not fit the above try out this uh this works right okay so okay so I guess there's multiple options how you can actually import your data or your lead list you can manually add a LinkedIn URL which we'll do in this video but typically if you're going to do this at a larger scale obviously you're going to want to either do the CSV upload or the Google

Sheets so let me just click on Google Sheets here boom you could actually integrate that with Google Sheets and that will allow you not to just do manual one by one uploads of different URLs you could actually do it in bulk which would be a lot easier and then you can actually create lead list to generate personalization in just one click I believe this would be done through uh the I believe that would be done through the Chrome extension but I'm

Not 100 sure but anyways let's just do the manual option for now so I'm going to input my LinkedIn URL click add URL and then we'll we're actually going to generate this and see what we get so this will use one credit all right so what does this do by the way so configure now so this is pretty cool this is actually I like this so you can actually configure your LinkedIn personalization settings right here so select personalizations you want to

Generate based on recommendation so grab your prospect's eyes using a name they know and key complements so on LinkedIn this is basically just saying how do you want to personalize your lines on LinkedIn there's certain things that they're able to pull from the profile so like people that are that they're getting recommendations from that's a section on LinkedIn familiar familiarity so notice you're based in Sydney as well or a location have you been to Etc koi desert um heard amazing things

About it PS line so generate 10 unique personalizations that need Zero review best way uh best one used as outros as PS by the way so that's pretty interesting and cool Prospect bio so this will generate based on their bio job bio all right self-explanatory career tenure and promotions recent activity and mutual connections and then hyper personalized for Prospect file using website alert please use hyper personalize when targeting decision makers only when the targeting decision makers these include people like Executives

Directors Founders Etc all right so hyper personalized for Prospect bio using websites uh website news so if you really want to hyper personalize for like a specific client if you're doing a sniper approach or a specific Prospect you could toggle on some of these options and it would basically use different blogs that they are personalized using a recent blog slash or recent popular blog launched personalize on a company case study slash past work on news articles or mentions and on the

Website so you can toggle whatever you want on or off we're not going to do that for this video but um okay and you can actually click Advanced so you can actually do a second line outro so what type of bridging outro would you like a compliment based on the intro a question a unique thought about the problem uh the business is solving so you can choose a compliment on all observation and then pre-pen so prepend lets you inject Data before

The intro generates so you could actually inject some stuff if you wanted like uh like hi oops high and then add a variable so hi first name or or sorry full name um I see your the a you know and then job title title right but we're not gonna do that and then a pen lets you inject stuff after uh the intro line so you could do the same sort of thing if you want to have that um so I do

Like the fact that you can really hyper personalize with this tool all right anyways let's just generate copy in English and see what we get for this LinkedIn so your results will be automatically showing up here in a few seconds so while this is loading I'm curious to see how long this will take your process for this each profile usually takes about 30 a second seconds we render three at a time all right so while that is okay so it actually

Just generated so it actually was fairly quick um let's see what we get so just saw on your bio that you're the founder and CEO of executive stride which has helped or generated over 14 000 or 1400 plus qualified appointments in the last eight months I bet your company is doing well because of your hard work personalized number two just saw on your bio that you're the founder uh and CEO of executive chart.com which is helped over 100 businesses so this

Is actually outdated information but from on my profile I actually update that but uh and Executives get significant traction on LinkedIn I bet that you're doing a good job at delegating and managing your company so that's based around the bio this is based around the job description and then this is some PS lines I saw your profile so this is really cool I actually like this a lot um I actually took me quite Frank I actually kind of prefer this just

From what I'm seeing so far from the video I did yesterday on uh what was the Tool's name um it was right oh yeah right cream right yeah this is way in my opinion this is way better than right creams uh personalization lines just from what I've seen at least with white cream you just put in the like the URL and you couldn't really customize what aspect it won you wanted the AI to personalize for this you can add the customization

And then you also like I it only used one credit for this contact which is me but you can see here we got a lot of different data we got two personalized intros we got two personalized job description um lines and then we got three personalized PS lines so this is you know based on city sports team so I see your base in Canada are you a big fan of Toronto Raptors uh you know this is based on the certificate this

Is based on languages and then prospector so you could and add these as well if you wanted but so I do really like this and you can click regenerate this stuff if you like regenerate complement and then you can go ahead and click save so this saves your text edits not selected ice breakers um interesting so I guess yeah you can add some edits if you'd like let me just save you could edit and try again or you could export as

CSV just by clicking that and I believe that's just gonna download your the CSV yeah there we go all right um so yeah that's really good you can obviously upvote down vote copy or this will be added to your selected primary first line column in your CSV export so this is actually really cool I like this and when you do export it I believe it exports it with all the data um the intros all this stuff it's gonna export all these

Outlines that it's generated so that's really cool and a great feature um so yeah that's that's just the gist of the personalized lines we'll maybe do one more personal personalized line based on let's do create copy let's do um is this the URL website okay let me try this manual yeah so let's do our website right here um see what we get here so boom and click add okay and let's see you can configure this as well so this is really

Cool choose dictation I really I'm really impressed by I love that I like that I love how I'm so this is stuff you can add um to include in the AI output which is I really like that like I said this is cool because you can really personalize these lines beforehand and command the AI what you actually want to include in your personalized lines so um that is very powerful and you know a lot of other AI tools don't have this

So I think that this is a pretty cool Leaf in terms of personalized lines we'll maybe look at some more tools in the future that have this certain feature and we can see how they can compare but so far out of comparing this to right cream it's way better in terms of personalized lines um and it's just good in general I've tried a few other ones that I may do some reviews on in this channel but I do really like this

Um the only issue for me like I said is that there is those limits like you really can't scale this to like you know like it said you can do 25 000 uh a month but that's a custom plan I'm assuming that's probably gonna cost at least 500 to a thousand bucks per month which is quite pricey just for an AI tool um in my opinion so two copies are generated for each lead you have two options automate and let our

AI select the best output fast and scalable manual select your favorite output okay so so obviously since this is just one I can manually select it if you're doing a huge list like 200 or 300 uh contacts which isn't that huge but I guess for this tool um then obviously you want to do the automatic approach so let's see what we got I'm really impressed with the executive stride how executive stride has helped entrepreneurs start and scale your business it's great

To see how entrepreneurs realize their dreams of growing a business I'm really impressed how your company's ability to help entrepreneurs start and scale a business in 12 months or less it's great to see how your business teaches entrepreneurs to reach their full potential so it's not bad you know it's it's pretty decent like I mean you know it's it's personalized right it's not the best copy but it's it's good and it's personalized right and I'd say that this aspect in terms

Of the website URL personalization is a lot better than right creams you know this isn't a comparison video but just because we did that video yesterday and you can check that out as well on the channel um you know uh right cream wouldn't even work with our website for some reason so I had to use some other website but I wasn't even able to pull the data so this is a lot better of course you can export the CSV or save

So let's just save and you can export it as well right we're not going to really worry about that I guess you can do batch scheduling so automate your Outreach upload your leads to g g sheets Google Sheets set a schedule scheduler AI will auto sync personalized lines directly into Google Sheets don't let the finger so that's pretty cool I believe that uh comes through the integration so yeah you can integrate Shopify Google Suite or Google Sheets smart lead mailshake lamb

List reply IO HubSpot woodpecker snowvio Apollo IO so there's great Integrations like this tool is really built mainly around cooled email cooled Outreach LinkedIn Outreach etc etc that's why they have the Chrome extension all these Integrations and it's a good tool for that my like I said my only issue is just the limits the limits personally for our company really doesn't make sense but if you're doing you know Enterprise level deals and you're you know doing sniper targeting or if you're

Just starting out as a marketing agency or business whatever it could make sense for you right or if you want to pay like was it 350 bucks for um 3 500 leads if that's enough personalized lines for you then that's great this tool will be for you so I say in general this is a great great tool if you don't need that much credits that's my opinion the limits for me just is a reason why I probably won't be using this

Tool uh too much just because it doesn't really make that much sense all right but you know if there was unlimited credits or you know a hundred thousand fifty thousand uh you know even 25 000 for a reasonably price then it would make sense to be honest but that's just my opinion so far but also too at the same time guys you do get I believe you do get um unlimited let's see I think you do I'm gonna double check let's

See try writing a quick blog and see how much credits it uses so so far we've used two of the 15 credits oh you also get 500 email verifications a month on this plan so that's pretty cool to verify emails um so let's do some blog stuff so we will do blog title to start out so description of blog how to start a marketing agency in 2022 so I've done a lot of videos doing uh creating blogs using AI copy running

Tools using Jasper using Word Hero using pepper type different ones like that you know I have a bunch on the channel so you can check those out as well and on this channel we upload videos like this every single day so if you like content like this on how to grow your business with different tools different tactics different strategies then make sure to subscribe turn on post notifications so you stay up to date we'll be posting different stuff about different tools

Different deals lifetime deals reviews guides and just ultimate business growth strategies courses programs resources a bunch of values coming soon so stay tuned guys anyway so you can change the number of outputs to one between one to five we'll just do two and then obviously you can change your language all right just giving you some tips here so I'm so I put two outputs I wonder if that's gonna use two credits let's see okay so how to start a marketing agency

In 2022 for marketing departments so I mean like this is in my opinion not that I mean it's okay it's not that great all it literally did is just add four marketing apartments at the end of it but raise refund request I guess you can raise a refund request if it's bad AI uh 0.28 credits were used to make your content each credit represents for uh 42.86 words uh generated for you for the below output that is 12 words all right

So I think from what I can see total resulted so it almost used just under a half a credit so I don't okay so we still have two it still shows two credits only used so I we'll see we'll see if this whole blog okay so let me see if they have a long for I don't even know if they have a long form editor um so we got that title great copy blog content um We're Not Gonna worry about the

Meta description Let's do let's do the outline so blog title we'll just do and also too as a side note I just realized it only generated one result last time which was kind of weird um I did have two I believe so so this is saying it will use four point or 3.8 to 4.8 credits or something so I'm curious to see so we generated two outputs we'll just use this one I'm not gonna really read through it actually wait let's

See so what do you what to do when you are overwhelmed with work how to find and hire a digital marketing consultant how to manage outsourced contractors and virtual assistants building a strong marketing agency brand get your first two customers how to choose the best marketing agent platforms for your clients how to choose the best marketing conference for you so I mean it's okay but there's a lot of not relevant stuff in that Generation Um and then let's see with this

One so why you should start a marketing agency how to knit so this is right off the bat more relevant to how to start a marketing agency like uh like you know this stuff I mean some of this stuff isn't as relevant to that but how to Outsource everything okay so yeah for your marketing agency how to hire so this is like way better this is a way better output right here so I'm gonna copy that all right so I'll copy

That yeah so it looks like they're from what I can see it doesn't look like there is a long form editor which of course in terms of when we're speaking for blog content generating blog content that just makes this not as optimal as a lot of other tools um for blog content so let's just see so do [Music] start a marketing agency in 2022 or marketing D part events all right so basically what I did is I took that title we

Generate and I took the first subtopic section um for the outline and I put it in here um like I said it's a lot harder to do all this since there's no long form editor and you literally have to like go back and forth copying the new section the title like I can't even access the title right here I have to go back to my project and see everything so in terms of okay so let's see this output first so there

Are many congrats on your output being generated you can go ahead 50 50 personalizations extra for the next six months now I'm not going to uh there are many reasons why you should start a marketing agency but there are also many reasons why I'm working an apartment for a company would look favorable upon hiring an in-house advertising and promotion team for example a lot of companies like to go through bouts of cost cutting and other negative actions during economic depressions and

Recessions a strong business strategy that pays dividends is having your own dedicated marketing department which will help you or which will help protect your brand identity whereas Outsourcing might result in drastic changes to your brand messaging or target audience Outreach another reason in the personal cap is the personal Capital you could accuse a crew through generating viral content this is uh this type of traffic can attract potential customers to your your company or clients who can refer their friends they need

For your business when they're facing problems this has potential to build a sustainable business model that can survive ups and downs with the economy making it easier for you to grow to find any team members through economic uh find work and if work if economics suddenly go bad again in five to ten years time when most clients and then it blanks out so I'd rate this maybe a maybe a six or seven generation out of ten Maybe um you know some

Of it's relevant some of it's not as relevant some of it's oh like decent good but let me just copy this um all right so you know you can like what I would do if I was to write a full blog I have the title now I have the outline and we have the first extended topic so all you would simply do is keep that topic um like I would go to for example Notepad I would actually do this in like

A dock but let me I would place I would uh have my outline so I would have this right here like so so here are our topics our talking points and then here is our title and I would simply put just go through each talking point like I just did right here foreign and I would just go through and do the blog expander uh right there and then you would technically have your blog obviously you're gonna have to go through um

You know regenerate some content make sure it's good but you can see here like we already generated that generated a bunch of our credits used that's 10 credits we've used when we generate one two three four five things and this blog stuff right here it's okay but it's nowhere it's not I'd say like something like Word Hero Niche is where you have unlimited even like obviously Jasper is better but um you know even like Word Hero niches copy AI where you

Have higher limits for the like Word Hero niches unlimited credits unlimited Generations they have a long form editor so in terms of creating blog content I personally would not use writer AI it makes no sense in my opinion it's okay Generations um nothing too special and you know you're very limited by the credits so the credits the credits specifically are are only really good for the personalized Outreach because that is the the plus side of writer AI but in terms of

The blog creating blog content I would not use writer AI I would use one of the other tools I've reviewed on my YouTube channel uh to be honest um but yeah the personalization if you're looking if you don't need crazy limits then it's a great tool and you can really customize it so I'm not going to say anything too bad about that I think it's great they do have some cool Integrations you know you can create lead lists here scrape stop

Uh scrape LinkedIn leads through uh with their extension through you know sales Navigator and everything we have the same thing with stride lead so I this would make no use for me like I said you can check out stride leads as well I've done videos on that it's a much much more cost efficient tool that you can get that does a lot more in my opinion for that type of stuff but yeah they have some Integrations they're they are more of

An established tool which is probably why their pricing is so high in my opinion or what you you actually get like for me personally I would only use this tool if I was gonna do the personalized outreaches and I didn't need an insane amount of volume per month right because it is priced High the more volume you use but if I got this tool and was trying to do personalizations and blog content anytime you do the blog content it's using the

Credits that could be used for the personalizations which really just doesn't make sense even with the blog content it used more credits for the blog content than it actually did for the personalizations which literally makes no sense in my opinion because a lot of these companies claim that the you know the personalized lines use a you know different model and it costs a lot more whatever so um the blog content in my opinion shouldn't use more credits if it's you know

So that doesn't really make as much sense to me but anyways other than that I don't want to make this video too long that's kind of my review and guide how to use this tool some of the basics you know there's a lot more stuff you can do with this tool um it is a good tool I'm not you know gonna bash it or anything I think it's good it just has its own purpose right for me I'm not going to

Use it to write blog stuff I personally don't need it for since we do a mass amount of Outreach and the limit of personalized lines wouldn't work for me but if you don't need a mass amount of Outreach and you're just doing a small amount um like what's the lowest uh tier uh you could do 400 um personalized lines per month 1200 for 150 if you only need that amount then this could be a good tool for you and like I

Said I'll leave a link in the description if you get the yearly too there's a discount of 20 off so you do save a bit of money um so all in all that that aspect does make this pretty decent but other than that guys that is smart writer AI for you let me know in the comments down comments down below your thoughts on this tool and this video let me know if you got some value from this like I said we
