Cold Outreach

Description

Master cold email, LinkedIn, and first-touch prospect outreach. Use when crafting outbound sequences, social touches, or follow-ups that must earn fast responses.

What this skill does

1. 1Builds outbound sequences using the SPARK flow: subject hook, personalized opening, problem agitation, relevant value, and single CTA.
2. 2Generates email templates (Observation and Insight, Problem/Solution, Referral) and LinkedIn scripts for connection and post-accept touches.
3. 3Designs 3-touch follow-up cadences over 14 days with new angles at each step rather than simple bumps.
4. 4Diagnoses low open or reply rates by auditing subject lines, openers, value props, and send timing.
5. 5Provides industry-specific angle cheatsheets (SaaS, e-commerce, financial services, healthcare) and a personalization trigger sheet.

When to use

• Building outbound sequences for a new persona or segment where no templates exist yet.
• SDR or founder-led outreach has low reply rates and needs a structural diagnosis.
• Personalizing cold email or LinkedIn outreach at scale without sounding generic.
• Designing a follow-up cadence for a sequence that goes quiet after the first touch.
