Draft Outreach

草拟开发信

Research first, then draft. This skill never sends generic outreach - it always researches the prospect first to personalize the message. Works standalone with web search, supercharged when you connect your tools.
先调研,再草拟。本Skill绝不会生成通用开发信——它总会先研究潜在客户,再个性化定制消息。可独立搭配网络搜索使用,连接工具后功能更强大。

Connectors (Optional)

连接器(可选)

Execution Flow

执行流程

Step 1: Parse Request

步骤1:解析请求

Input patterns:
- "draft outreach to John Smith at Acme" → Person + company
- "write cold email to Acme's CTO" → Role + company
- "reach out to sarah@acme.com" → Email provided
- "LinkedIn message to [LinkedIn URL]" → Profile provided
Input patterns:
- "draft outreach to John Smith at Acme" → Person + company
- "write cold email to Acme's CTO" → Role + company
- "reach out to sarah@acme.com" → Email provided
- "LinkedIn message to [LinkedIn URL]" → Profile provided

Step 2: Research First (Always)

步骤2:优先调研(必选)

Use research-prospect skill internally:
1. Web search for company + person
2. If Enrichment connected: Get verified contact info, background
3. If CRM connected: Check for prior relationship
Must find before drafting:
  • Who they are (title, background)
  • What the company does
  • Recent news or trigger
  • Personalization hook
内部调用research-prospect skill:
1. Web search for company + person
2. If Enrichment connected: Get verified contact info, background
3. If CRM connected: Check for prior relationship
草拟前必须明确:
  • 对方身份(职位、背景)
  • 公司业务
  • 近期动态或触发点
  • 个性化切入点

Step 3: Identify Hook

步骤3:确定切入点

Priority order for hooks:
1. Trigger event (funding, hiring, news) → Most timely
2. Mutual connection → Social proof
3. Their content (post, article, talk) → Shows you did research
4. Company initiative → Relevant to their priorities
5. Role-based pain point → Least personal but still relevant
切入点优先级:
1. 触发事件(融资、招聘、新闻)→ 时效性最强
2. 共同联系人 → 社交背书
3. 对方发布的内容(帖子、文章、演讲)→ 体现你做了调研
4. 公司项目 → 契合对方优先级
5. 岗位相关痛点 → 个性化最弱但仍相关

Step 4: Draft Message

步骤4:草拟消息

Email Structure (AIDA):
SUBJECT: [Personalized, <50 chars, no spam words]

[Opening: Personal hook - shows you researched them]

[Interest: Their problem/opportunity in 1-2 sentences]

[Desire: Brief proof point - similar company result]

[Action: Clear, low-friction CTA]

[Signature]
LinkedIn Connection Request (<300 chars):
Hi [Name], [Mutual connection/shared interest/genuine compliment].
Would love to connect. [No pitch]
LinkedIn Follow-up Message:
Thanks for connecting! [Value-first: insight, article, observation]

[Soft transition to why you reached out]

[Question, not pitch]

1. Create draft with to, subject, body
2. Return draft link
3. Note: "Draft created - review and send"

If not available:
1. Output email text
2. Note: "Copy to your email client"

Email Style Guidelines

邮件风格指南

  1. Be concise but informative — Get to the point quickly. Busy people skim.
  2. No markdown formatting — Never use asterisks, bold (text), or other markdown. Write plain text that looks natural in any email client.
  3. Short paragraphs — 2-3 sentences max per paragraph. White space is your friend.
  4. Simple lists — If listing items, use plain dashes. No fancy formatting.
Good:
Here's what I can share:
- Case study from a similar company
- 15-min intro call this week
- Quick demo if helpful
Bad:
**What I Can Offer:**
- **Case study** from a similar company
- **Intro call** this week

  1. 简洁且信息完整——尽快切入主题。忙碌的人只会快速浏览。
  2. 不使用Markdown格式——绝不要用星号、粗体(text)或其他Markdown格式。使用纯文本,确保在任何邮件客户端中显示自然。
  3. 短段落——每段最多2-3句话。留白很重要。
  4. 简单列表——如果需要列项,使用普通短横线。不要用复杂格式。
正确示例:
Here's what I can share:
- Case study from a similar company
- 15-min intro call this week
- Quick demo if helpful
错误示例:
**What I Can Offer:**
- **Case study** from a similar company
- **Intro call** this week

What NOT to Do

切勿做以下事项

Generic openers:
  • "I hope this email finds you well"
  • "I'm reaching out because..."
  • "I wanted to introduce myself"
Feature dumps:
  • Long paragraphs about your product
  • Multiple value props at once
  • No clear CTA
Fake personalization:
  • "I noticed you work at [Company]" (obviously)
  • "Congrats on your role" (without context)
Markdown in emails:
  • Using bold or italic asterisks
  • Headers or formatted lists that won't render
Instead:
  • Lead with something specific you learned
  • One clear value prop
  • One clear ask
  • Plain text formatting only

通用开头:
  • "I hope this email finds you well"
  • "I'm reaching out because..."
  • "I wanted to introduce myself"
堆砌功能:
  • 长篇大论介绍你的产品
  • 同时提及多个价值主张
  • 没有明确的行动号召(CTA)
虚假个性化:
  • "我注意到你在[公司]工作"(这是显而易见的)
  • "恭喜你获得新职位"(无上下文)
邮件中使用Markdown:
  • 使用粗体斜体星号
  • 使用无法正常显示的标题或格式化列表
正确做法:
  • 从你调研到的具体信息入手
  • 明确一个核心价值主张
  • 明确一个行动请求
  • 仅使用纯文本格式

Hi David,
Saw Notion's AI rollout is gaining serious traction - congrats. With 5 ML roles open, seems like you're scaling fast.
Curious how you're thinking about inference infrastructure as usage grows. We helped [Similar Company] cut their AI serving costs 40% while improving latency.
Worth a 15-min call to see if relevant to your roadmap?
