Outreach

"Based on my research, here are contacts at {company}: {list from research} Who would you like to reach out to?"

Step 2: Determine Message Type

Ask the user which type if not clear from context.

Step 3: Generate Using 3-Part Structure

Part 1: Hook (about THEM, not you)

Reference something specific about the company, their work, or a recent event.

Bad: "I'm really interested in your company" (about you) Bad: "I'd love to connect" (generic) Good: "Your team's work on {specific project/launch} caught my attention" Good: "I noticed {company} just {recent event from research}"

Part 2: Proof (one quantifiable thing about you)

One sentence. One number. Directly relevant to their world.

Bad: "I have 10 years of experience in marketing" Good: "I grew organic traffic 3x at {Company} in 8 months" Good: "I managed a $2M portfolio with 98% client retention"

Pull the most relevant proof point from the user's profile that connects to the target company's needs.

Part 3: Proposal (low-pressure ask)

Bad: "Can you refer me?" (presumptuous) Bad: "I'd love to pick your brain" (vague, one-sided) Good: "Would you be open to a 15-minute chat about what {team} looks for?" Good: "I'd appreciate any advice on standing out for the {role} opening"

Step 4: Output

## Outreach: {Contact Name} at {Company}

**Platform:** {LinkedIn connection / LinkedIn message / Email / Follow-up}
**Context:** {role or department}

---

{the message, properly formatted}

---

**Character count:** {n} / {limit for platform}
**Tone:** {Professional / Warm / Direct}

Step 5: Offer Variations

"Want me to:

• Adjust the tone? (more formal / more casual / more direct)
• Write for a different platform? (email instead of LinkedIn)
• Draft a follow-up for if they don't respond in a week?"

Rules

• NEVER draft messages that misrepresent the user's background
• NEVER suggest the user claim a connection that doesn't exist
• NEVER draft overly flattering or sycophantic messages
• Keep LinkedIn connection requests under 300 characters (hard limit)
• Every message must contain something specific (not a template)
• If no company research and no web search available, be honest: "This message would be stronger with specific company context. Consider researching them first."
