Cold Outreach Email Writer

Write a short outreach email that sounds like a person — opens with why you're writing to them specifically, makes one ask, and makes it easy to say no.

The prompt

Write a cold outreach email to the person described below. Under 120 words. Open with a specific reason I'm contacting them rather than a generic compliment, make exactly one clear ask, and give them an easy way to decline. No flattery, no buzzwords:

RECIPIENT:
{{recipient}}

WHAT I WANT:
{{goal}}

Works in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other assistants. Replace the highlighted placeholders with your own content.

How to use it

Fill {{recipient}} with who you are writing to and why them, and {{goal}} with the one thing you want. The email stays short and opens with a reason specific to that person.

Tips for better results

  • Add one true, specific detail about the recipient.
  • Ask for a single clear next step.
  • Send from your own words. Edit until it sounds like you.
