Ghostwriting

Send internal emails on behalf of your executives &
other team members

With Workshop’s ghostwriting feature, your team can craft memos, newsletters, announcements, and on-brand emails that look like they’re coming directly from your executives or department heads. Whether it’s the CEO, CFO, or another key leader, ghostwriting allows your internal communications to feel more personal and impactful.

Ghostwriting overview

User permissions

Control who can ghostwrite for your executives and which distribution lists they can send to.

Straightforward approval process

Send test emails for review and approval before the final send—so leaders can always sign off with confidence.

Analytics that execs will love

Share detailed engagement metrics with executives, giving them insight into how employees are interacting with their communications.

Simple reply management

No need to worry about cluttering your inbox! You can set the reply-to address to ensure that responses come directly to you, without needing to CC yourself.

Personalization & segmentation

Easily add merge tags and personalization tokens to customize messages for different departments, roles, and locations.

Easy to schedule & send

No need to wake your CEO up in the middle of the night! Schedule email sends to reach global teams at the right time, ensuring everyone stays informed.

“Sending emails from a specific leader instead of a general company account is a proven way to boost open rates and engagement. Plus, it enhances visibility into your leadership team, fostering transparency and trust across your organization—something every company can benefit from!”

Jamie Bell

VP of Marketing, Workshop

Practical ways to use ghostwriting
in your internal comms

Here are a few of our favorite ways that customers are
currently using our ghostwriting feature:

Weekly communications from the CEO

One of our top tips: Send a CEO letter from your internal email platform and share the analytics. When leadership sees the open rate isn’t 100% — and it never is — they’ll ask how to improve it. Suddenly, you're talking communications strategy!

Communications from managers

Rather than asking managers to send their own emails about specific policy or procedure updates, you can get their approval and create/send emails on their behalf (ensuring complete and total alignment with your key message).

Meeting or presentation recaps

Transcribe meetings or presentations from leaders with the organization, and use the transcription to ghostwrite a concise follow-up email that reiterates those same ideas and messages!

Don’t just take our word for it!

“It's been an extremely helpful tool for us to ensure that the messages going out are on brand and going out at times when they are likely to be read.”
