Skill instructions

Cold Email Writer

What it does

Produces a short, specific cold email that earns a reply — personalized opener, one clear value point, one ask — plus subject-line options to test.

When to use

  • "Write a cold email to [prospect]", "draft first-touch outreach", "cold email for this list".

Inputs

Prospect (name/role/company) and the offer or reason for reaching out. Optional: tone, desired CTA, sender details.

Workflow

  1. Find a hook. One relevant, specific detail about the prospect or company (role, recent news, a likely pain) from HubSpot context or quick web research.
  2. Frame the value in one sentence tied to that hook — their outcome, not your features.
  3. Write the email: under ~90 words, conversational, one ask, easy yes.
  4. Add 2-3 subject lines of different styles (curiosity, direct, value).
  5. Output the email + subjects, paste-ready.

Output

**Subject options:** [A] / [B] / [C]

[Opener with the specific hook]
[One value sentence]
[One clear, low-friction ask]
[Sign-off]

Notes

  • No verifiable hook? Use a credible role-based pain and keep the personalization honest — never fabricate a "saw your post" claim.
  • One email, one ask. Sequences belong in follow-up-email-sequence-writer.
