Defines experiment types (list-only, copy-only, combined), confidence weighting, minimum sample sizes, and success criteria. Use when the user wants to improve a campaign, test a new list vs old one, or compare copy variants. Prevents the #1 learning-loop mistake — changing list + copy + offer at once and losing all signal.\n---\n\n# Experiment Design\n\nIf you change your list, your copy, and your offer at the same time, you learn nothing. This skill forces you to isolate one variable per experiment so you actually learn what's working.\n\n## Why this exists\n\nMost cold email operators run \"throw-everything\" experiments. Campaign 1 gets a new list, new copy, and a new offer. It works better. They declare victory. But they can't tell you WHY — was it the list? The copy? The offer?\n\nThen campaign 2 changes all three again. Regression. Nobody knows why.\n\nThis skill is the antidote: plan each experiment around ONE variable, keep everything else constant, and confidence-weight the results.\n\n## The three experiment types\n\n### A. List-only experiment\n- **What varies:** the list (targeting criteria)\n- **What stays fixed:** copy, offer, sending infrastructure, sequence timing\n- **What you learn:** whether this segment is a better fit than the baseline\n- **Confidence on learnings:** HIGH on targeting, LOW on copy (because copy wasn't tested)\n\n### B. Copy-only experiment\n- **What varies:** the copy (subject, body, sequence, or A/B variant)\n- **What stays fixed:** list, offer, infrastructure\n- **What you learn:** whether this copy resonates with this audience\n- **Confidence on learnings:** HIGH on copy, LOW on targeting\n\n### C. Combined experiment (use sparingly)\n- **What varies:** list AND copy (and sometimes offer)\n- **What stays fixed:** only infrastructure\n- **When to use:** launching a whole new campaign for a new ICP. You can't isolate because everything is new.\n- **Confidence on learnings:** MEDIUM on everything. Use as hypothesis-generation, not conclusion.\n\n## The Framework\n\n### Step 1: Name your hypothesis\n\nEvery experiment starts with a one-sentence hypothesis:\n\n> \"Targeting Heads of Marketing at 50-200 person B2B SaaS companies will get a higher positive reply rate than our current VP Sales baseline, because [reason].\"\n\nOr:\n\n> \"Leading with a question about their recent product launch will get a higher reply rate than our current benefit-focused opener, because [reason].\"\n\nIf you can't write the hypothesis in one sentence, you don't understand the experiment yet. Go back.\n\n### Step 2: Identify the single variable\n\nWrite down exactly what changes and what stays the same.\n\n```\nVariable: Target job title\nChange: \"VP Sales\" → \"Head of Marketing\"\n\nConstants:\n- Industry filter: unchanged\n- Headcount: unchanged\n- Geography: unchanged\n- Copy: unchanged (same 4-step sequence)\n- Offer: unchanged (same lead magnet)\n- Sending infrastructure: unchanged (same 20 domains, 40 inboxes)\n- Send schedule: unchanged\n```\n\nIf ANY constant is actually changing, stop. Either lock it down, or reclassify as a combined experiment.\n\n### Baseline sanity check — the 1% rule\n\nBefore running any experiment, confirm your baseline is healthy: **overall reply rate ≥1% after 200+ sends.** If your baseline is below 1% after 200 sends, the problem isn't your experiment — your infrastructure or copy is already broken. Run `/email-deliverability-audit` first.\n\nRunning an experiment on a broken baseline is wasted effort: you'll learn that \"both arms are bad,\" not \"which arm wins.\"\n\n### Step 3: Calculate minimum sample size\n\nThe smaller your effect, the more leads you need. Use these rough rules for cold email:\n\n| Current baseline | Expected lift | Minimum sends per arm |\n|---|---|---|\n| 1% positive reply rate | 2x (1% → 2%) | ~500 |\n| 1% positive reply rate | 1.5x (1% → 1.5%) | ~2,000 |\n| 1% positive reply rate | 1.2x (1% → 1.2%) | ~10,000 |\n| 2% positive reply rate | 2x (2% → 4%) | ~250 |\n| 2% positive reply rate | 1.5x (2% → 3%) | ~1,000 |\n\nRule of thumb: **if your test has fewer than 500 sends per arm, you can't tell signal from noise.**\n\nFor most beginners, 2,000 sends per arm is the right default.\n\n### Step 4: Build the success criteria up front\n\nBefore launching, write:\n\n```\nSuccess = positive reply rate > X% (our current baseline is Y%)\nFailure = positive reply rate < Z%\nInconclusive = between X and Z\nRequired sample: at least N sends per arm, reported after day 21 of sequence\n```\n\nDecide now — not after seeing the data. This prevents \"oh we learned something else instead\" rationalization.\n\n### Step 5: Launch both arms simultaneously\n\nSame day, same sending infrastructure split, same sequence. If your control arm sends Monday and your variant arm sends Thursday, day-of-week effects will confound the test.\n\nBest practice in Smartlead/Instantly: create two campaigns, assign each half of your inboxes, launch at the exact same time, same schedule.\n\n### Step 6: Measure at day 21\n\nWait until the full sequence (typically Day 0, 3, 7, 11 + reply grace period) has finished for ALL leads. Measuring earlier biases toward the first email's reply rate.\n\nPull metrics via `/positive-reply-scoring` skill:\n- Total sent (per arm)\n- Total replies (per arm)\n- Positive replies (per arm, classified by Claude)\n- Positive reply rate = positive replies / total sent\n\nSecondary metrics (report but don't optimize for):\n- Overall reply rate (positive replies / total sent is primary, but this shows raw engagement)\n- Open rate (if available)\n- Bounce rate (sanity check — if one arm bounces more, your list is bad, not your copy)\n\n### Step 7: Weight the learnings\n\nUse this framework when reporting:\n\n```\nExperiment: <name>\nType: List-only | Copy-only | Combined\nVariable: <what changed>\n\nResult: <winner name> at <positive reply rate>% vs <baseline>%\nConfidence: HIGH | MEDIUM | LOW (based on experiment type + sample size)\n\nLearnings (by confidence):\n  HIGH confidence:\n    - <thing you can trust>\n  MEDIUM confidence:\n    - <thing that looks good but needs replication>\n  LOW confidence:\n    - <thing you're speculating about>\n```\n\nHIGH only if: experiment type isolates the variable AND sample size meets the minimum.\n\n### Step 8: Decide what to do with the result\n\n- **Winner by ≥20% lift, HIGH confidence:** adopt as new baseline. Document. Move to next experiment.\n- **Winner by 10-20% lift, HIGH confidence:** run a replication experiment with fresh leads. If it wins again, adopt.\n- **Winner by <10% lift:** inconclusive. Run bigger next time or drop.\n- **Loser:** document WHY you think it lost. Don't just move on — the loss is a learning.\n- **Combined experiment winner:** do NOT adopt as a new baseline. Instead, split into single-variable follow-ups to figure out which part actually drove the lift.\n\n## What NOT to experiment on (at first)\n\nIf you're just starting out, **don't experiment at all** until you have a baseline from a single shipped campaign running for 3 weeks. You need a control before you can run tests.\n\nOnce you have a baseline, the priority order of experiments is usually:\n1. **List** (biggest impact — bad list kills any copy)\n2. **Offer / lead magnet** (second biggest — \"book a call\" vs a real magnet)\n3. **Subject line** (cheap to test, drives open rate)\n4. **Opener / first line** (after subject, the big lever)\n5. **CTA** (how you end the email)\n6. **Sequence timing** (Day 3 vs Day 2 follow-up)\n7. **Sequence length** (4-step vs 6-step)\n\nDon't jump to step 6 when step 1 is broken.\n\n## Common mistakes\n\n- **A/B testing inside one campaign.** Smartlead's A/B variant feature mixes the data — fine for small copy tweaks, terrible for hypothesis testing. Use TWO campaigns for real isolation.\n- **\"I'll test 3 things at once.\"** You'll learn nothing.\n- **Calling it early.** Wait 21 days minimum. Cold email replies trickle in over weeks.\n- **Changing infrastructure mid-test.** If one arm uses new domains and one uses old, deliverability skews everything.\n- **Ignoring bounce rate.** If variant's bounce rate is 2x control, the list is bad — not the copy. Disqualify the test.\n\n## Output: experiment plan file\n\nAt the end of planning, write to:\n\n```\n~/cold-email-ai-skills/profiles/<business-slug>/experiments/YYYY-MM-DD-<name>.yaml\n```\n\nSchema:\n\n```yaml\nexperiment:\n  name: <short name>\n  hypothesis: <one sentence>\n  type: list-only | copy-only | combined\n  variable: <what changes>\n  constants: <list of what stays fixed>\n\nsuccess_criteria:\n  positive_reply_rate_target: <float>\n  baseline: <float>\n  minimum_sends_per_arm: <int>\n  measurement_date: <YYYY-MM-DD>\n\narms:\n  control:\n    smartlead_campaign_id: <tbd until launch>\n    description: <what's in the control>\n  variant:\n    smartlead_campaign_id: <tbd until launch>\n    description: <what's in the variant>\n\nresults: <empty until day 21>\n  control_positive_reply_rate: null\n  variant_positive_reply_rate: null\n  winner: null\n  confidence: null\n  decision: null\n```\n\n## References\n\n- `references/sample-size-calculator.md` — longer math for power calculations\n- `references/example-experiments/` — 3 worked examples (list, copy, combined)\n- `/positive-reply-scoring` skill — how to actually measure the outcome\n\n---\n\n## What to do next\n\n**Launch the planned experiment** via `/smartlead-campaign-upload-public` (manual) or `/auto-research-public` (automated). Use the `variants.yaml` from `/campaign-copywriting`.\n\n**Then wait 21 days** before evaluating — reply rate needs that long to stabilize. After 21 days, `/positive-reply-scoring` on each arm.\n\n**Or wait:** if you don't have 2,000+ leads per experiment arm, you can't detect normal-sized effects. Build a bigger list (`/prospeo-full-export`, `/disco-like`) first.\n\n## Related skills\n\n- `/campaign-copywriting` — produces the copy variants this experiment tests\n- `/smartlead-campaign-upload-public` — launches each arm\n- `/positive-reply-scoring` — measures the outcome after 21 days\n","tagline":"Framework for running single-variable cold email experiments.
