The template

Subject: {{company}}: question about your {{pain_area}}

Hi {{first_name}},

Most {{role}} at companies like {{company}} struggle with {{specific_pain_point}}.

The typical workaround — {{what_they_currently_do}} — usually means {{negative_consequence}}.

We built {{product}} specifically to fix this. {{one_sentence_value_prop}}.

Worth 20 minutes to see if we can do the same for {{company}}?

{{sender_name}}

How to use it: Replace all {{placeholder}} variables with specific details before sending. The more specific your replacements, the higher your reply rate.

Personalization tips

  • 01Name the pain specifically — 'CRM data quality issues' beats 'data problems'.
  • 02The more specific the negative consequence, the more it resonates.
  • 03Pitch the outcome, not features.
  • 04Personalize the company observation with a real detail from their site or LinkedIn.
