Hey {{first_name}},

Based on your twitter feed, I gathered you are a Christiano Ronaldo fan – prompting me to reach out to you here.

What would Ronaldo be if he didn’t have the support of kick ass midfield formation of Isco and Casemiro!

I went through your profile and some of the work you have put up on dribbble and said to myself that if the design world had a Christiano, that would be you. I know you have been at {{company}} for only 6 months and this might be the wrong time to reach out to you, but I decided I will take that chance.

We are looking to fill a fantastic role to lead our clients design team. Would you be open to having a brief chat about this?

Best,

Happy Tuesday, {{first_name}}!

It has now been over six months since I last reached out to you regarding our clients’ open roles for an Advertising Creative producer.

Crazy how time flies: I hope you’ve been well!

Since then, we have successfully placed [[X]] candidates at companies like [[company 1]], [[company 2]], and [[company 3]].

I continue to be genuinely excited about connecting with you to see if there’s a true fit for you. After checking out your portfolio and what you’ve been up to since my last email, I sure do hope my timing is better now.

What do you say, are you interested in exploring some of our available opportunities? At worst, you’ll learn about some great opportunities for you at some of the top companies in the country; at best, you’ll be taking the first step towards your next adventure 🙂

Cheers,
