Your task is to develop a comprehensive 5-step cold outreach sequence for [COMPANY_NAME] targeting the [TARGET_PERSONA_JOB_TITLE] persona.

Touchpoint 2 (LinkedIn Message): A brief, personalized invitation to connect based on common industry challenges. 3. Touchpoint 3 (Email): The 'Value-Add' sharing a hypothetical success story or a specific ROI metric. 4. Touchpoint 4 (Email): The 'Thought Provoker' challenging the status quo regarding their current processes. 5. Touchpoint 5 (Email): The 'Permission-to-Close' follow-up that leaves the door open for future contact. Rules for writing: Keep emails under 125 words, use a professional yet conversational tone, focus 80% on the prospect's problems and 20% on your solution, and use placeholders like [Prospect Name] or [Prospect Company] where appropriate.

How to use it
Provide detailed information about your product and target audience to generate a sequence that feels bespoke and human-centric.
Tips
- Use the 'Interest-Based' CTA instead of a 'Meeting-Based' CTA (e.g., 'Would you be open to learning more?' vs 'Can we meet Tuesday at 2 PM?')
- Ensure the subject lines are no longer than 4 words and look like internal company emails.
- Include one specific mention of a competitor you have helped or a specific industry trend in the 'Value-Add' step.
- Space the touchpoints out logically: Day 1, Day 3, Day 7, Day 12, and Day 20.
- Verify that each email has only one clear call to action to avoid prospect confusion.
Information Gathering Requirements
To maximize effectiveness, define the 'Job to be Done' for your prospect. Identify the specific KPIs they are measured on, such as revenue growth, cost reduction, or risk mitigation, so the AI can anchor the value proposition in those metrics.
Output Framework and Structure
The sequence follows a 'Value-First' framework. Instead of asking for time immediately, it focuses on earning attention through relevant insights and demonstrating an understanding of the prospect's unique environment.
Context and Considerations
Adjust the tone based on the seniority of the persona. High-level executives (C-Suite) typically require shorter, more direct communication, while middle management may appreciate more detail on implementation and workflow benefits.
