Generate Personalized Sales Email

Part of the Sales Email Generator template

Prompt
Write a personalized cold outreach email for the following prospect.

Prospect Information:
{{prospect_info}}

Product/Service:
{{product_info}}

Email Goal:
{{email_goal}}

Write an email that:
1. Opens with something specific to them (not generic flattery)
2. Connects their situation to a relevant pain point in 1-2 sentences
3. Briefly introduces how you can help (focus on outcome, not features)
4. Ends with a low-friction call to action
5. Is under 150 words - busy people won't read more

Avoid:
- "I hope this email finds you well"
- "I'm reaching out because..."
- "I'd love to pick your brain"
- Listing features or company history
- Multiple CTAs or options
- Exclamation marks (more than one looks desperate)
- Buzzwords like "synergy", "leverage", "revolutionary"

Format:
Subject: [Short, specific, creates curiosity - under 50 characters]

[Email body - 3-4 short paragraphs]

[Sign-off]
[Your name]

Also provide:
**Why this approach:** [1 sentence explaining the personalization angle]
**Best send time:** [Recommendation based on their role/industry]

Example

Input

Prospect: James Miller, CTO at DataSync (50 employees, seed stage). They use n8n heavily based on job postings. He tweeted about workflow errors costing them a client last week. Product: n8n monitoring tool. Goal: Get him to try free tier.

Output

Subject: That client workflow issue you mentioned

James,

Your tweet about the workflow error that cost DataSync a client hit close to home. At seed stage, every client relationship is make-or-break, and silent n8n failures are brutal.

We built a monitoring layer specifically for n8n that catches these issues before they reach clients. Most teams set it up in under an hour and immediately see which workflows are silently failing.

Would it be useful to run this on your setup? Free to try, no call needed to get started.

Best,
[Your name]

**Why this approach:** Direct reference to his public pain point (the tweet) shows we understand his specific situation, not just sending mass emails.
**Best send time:** Tuesday-Thursday, 8-9am local time. CTOs at startups often do email before the day gets chaotic.
