The prompts
Prompt 1
My goal is to craft a cold outreach sequence that gets replies. To start, let's get the targeting right. I'm focused on the {job title, e.g., 'Head of HR at a UK-based finance firm'} and the key result I deliver for them is {describe the specific benefit, e.g., 'reducing employee onboarding time by 50%'}. Please use this information to create a single, powerful value proposition statement.
Prompt 2
With that value proposition as our foundation, let's map out the strategy for the sequence. Before writing any copy, please outline the logic for a 3-email follow-up. For each email, simply define its unique purpose, making sure each one builds logically on the last.
Prompt 3
The strategic outline for the sequence is exactly what I was looking for. Please go ahead and compose the full 3-email sequence now. Write each message to align perfectly with its defined purpose, giving each a compelling and non-generic subject line, and ending the final email with a clear, low-pressure call to action.
