Cold Email That Gets Replies
Under 90 words, one specific ask, no 'hope this finds you well' — the anti-spam cold outreach formula, in two lead-in variants.
Prompt text
Write a cold outreach email to [target persona, e.g. "Head of Growth at a Series A SaaS company"] about [what you're offering]. Rules: - Subject line under 6 words, no clickbait, sounds like a human wrote it - First line must be specific to them (reference something real about their company/role), not a generic compliment - State the value in one sentence — what's in it for them, not a list of your features - One specific, low-friction ask (a 15-min call on a specific day, or a yes/no question) — not "let me know if you're interested" - Total length under 90 words — cold emails get skimmed, not read - No exclamation points, no "I hope this finds you well," no attachment mentioned in the first email Give me 2 variants: one leading with a question, one leading with a specific insight/observation about their business.
