Cold Outreach Email
A short, respectful cold email that gets read and gets replies — without sounding like spam.
The template
Write a short cold outreach email to {{recipient_name}} at {{their_company}}.
What I offer / why I'm reaching out: {{value_prop}}
The specific ask: {{the_ask}}
Rules:
- Under 120 words.
- Open with something relevant to them, not about me.
- One clear ask, easy to say yes to.
- Warm and human, no buzzwords, no "I hope this email finds you well."
- Give me 2 subject line options.
Fill in these variables:
-
{{ recipient_name }} -
{{ their_company }} -
{{ value_prop }} -
{{ the_ask }}
How to use it
Fill in the four variables. Keep {{value_prop}} to one concrete benefit and {{the_ask}} to one small, low-friction step (a 15-minute call, a reply, a link click).
The best cold emails are short, specific, and about the reader. This template bakes those rules in so you don’t have to remember them each time.
