Example prompts
Short cold email · ChatGPT
You are an expert B2B copywriter. Write a 90-word cold email to a [job title] at a [industry] company. Open with a specific, relevant observation about their world, introduce [product] and its main benefit ([benefit]), and end with a low-friction CTA (a 15-minute call). Conversational, no jargon, no 'I hope this finds you well'.
Follow-up #1 · ChatGPT
Write a 50-word follow-up email to a cold prospect who didn't reply to my first message about [product]. Add one new piece of value (a stat, case study or insight), stay friendly and low-pressure, and end with a simple yes/no question.
Break-up email · ChatGPT
Write a short, polite 'break-up' email for a prospect who hasn't responded after 3 emails about [product]. Acknowledge the timing may be off, leave the door open, and make it easy to re-engage later. Warm, no guilt-tripping.
Referral request · ChatGPT
Write a brief email asking a happy customer for a referral to others who might benefit from [product]. Lead with appreciation, make the ask specific and easy, and offer to make the intro effortless.
Re-engagement · ChatGPT
Write a re-engagement email to a lead who went cold 3 months ago. Reference our previous conversation about [topic], share one relevant update, and propose a quick call. Casual and human.
Event invite · ChatGPT
Write a 70-word cold email inviting a [job title] to a webinar on [topic]. Lead with the outcome they'll get, include date/time placeholder, and a one-click RSVP CTA. Punchy and benefit-led.

- Keep cold emails under 100 words — brevity wins replies.

- Use exactly one clear call to action.
- Tell ChatGPT the relationship stage: cold, warm, or re-engagement.
