Implementation Guide

Messaging Approach

These emails use the same neutral messaging strategy as the Meta ads (delivered at tt-strike-ads.melleka.app). Key rules:

  • Never use the word "strike", "union", "labor", or "walkout"
  • Use phrases like: "school schedule changes", "unexpected day off", "kids home from school"
  • Focus on the parent's pain point (disruption, falling behind) and Teachertainment's solution
  • Empathetic and supportive tone — never political or divisive
