Hi {{first_name}},

[[Mutual connection name]] recommended I get in touch.

I recently helped [[referral’s company]] hire for a similar role to the [[position]] that you are currently recruiting for. I’m getting in touch to see if you’d be open to a quick discussion to see if I can offer you the same service?

I am flexible with my availability. Let me know when works for you.

Regards,

Hi {{first_name}},

It was a pleasure talking with you last night at [[event name]]. It was so interesting to learn [[something you learned about that person or their business that stuck out to you]]. As for grabbing a coffee some time, I'd love to take you up on that!

Do you have any availability this or next week? Good times for me are [[let the good times roll here]], but I will be glad to work around your schedule. Let me know if there are any days or times that work for you.

Best,

[[your name]]

Hi {{first_name}},

Hope all’s well :)

I noticed that you mentioned [[company name]] in one of your recent articles. Thanks for referencing us. [[explain why you liked the article]].

Small request; can you add a link to the mention?

I’d appreciate that. If there’s anything I can do for you, please let me know.

Best,

Hi {{first_name}},

It was great to meet you last night at the [[event name]]. I enjoyed our conversation afterward — particularly [[describe a specific aspect of the conversation]].

[[Provide something of value here]].

Stay in touch,

Hey {{first_name}},

It's been a while! It looks like you've been doing some exciting things since we worked together at [[company]]. How is your [[current job]] going?

I'm sure things are busy, but is there a day soon when you might be free to catch up over lunch or coffee? It'd be great to reconnect. I hope you've been well.

Take care,
[[your name]]

Hey {{first_name}},

Haven't heard back yet, so I'm assuming this isn't a priority at the moment.

Please feel free to reach out if that changes. Would love to give you a quick look at the platform and show you what agencies like [[AGENCY 1]] and [[AGENCY 2]] have been able to do for their clients using Cloutly.

Until then, all the best.

Hey {{first_name}},

I'm doing some research about how businesses in [[lead's industry]] are acquiring customers, and their primary concern is the difficulty (and expense) of ranking in Google and [[more specific industry pain point]].

Is this something that you're also challenged with at {{company}}?

Some [[lead's industry]] businesses have told me they focus on inbound marketing - things like blogging, ebooks, and webinars - and others have told me they rely strictly on PPC and paid traffic.

If you have a couple of minutes, would you be open to hopping on quick call? I'd be interested to see where {{company}} fits within this spectrum. It shouldn't take more than 10 or so minutes and I can share with you some of the tactics that other businesses like yours have been using to great success

Let me know what works for you!

Cheers,

Hi {{first_name}},

It seems like {{company}} has recorded a phenomenal growth over last couple of quarters.

At [[your agency name]], we specialise in recruiting top class sales talent for B2B firms. We’ve recently placed great sales leaders at firms like Salesforce, Oracle, Nutanix. We have a history of identifying top sales talent which has resulted in 98% of our placements hitting their quota in their very first year.

I would love to speak with you to understand your recruiting plans for this quarter and see how we can help you build your A-team. Let me know if you’d be up for a quick chat tomorrow at 5PM?

Kind regards,

Hey {{first_name}},

How are things going with {{company}}? I noticed that over the last month you've been investing in Facebook and Google advertising. At [[your company]], we help organizations like yours ensure that their media budget is being best spent and optimized for results. I think there are a few areas in which you could improve your current paid media spend.

Here are a few simple opportunities you may be overlooking:
> [[Tip 1]]
> [[Tip 2]]
> [[Tip 3]]

We put together a case study about how we helped [[Similar Company]] find success using paid media. Would you be interested in checking it out? They went from a [[XX]] click-through rate on their advertisements to [[XX]]. Let me know!

Hi {{first_name}},

I see that you're a Redskins fan, so you must be excited about Kirk Cousins coming through in the clutch like he did for you guys (I'm thinking a Cousins-Brady 2017 Superbowl showdown!).

As InLine continues to scale, your sales teams need the right tools to succeed, just as Cousins needs Reed, Garcon and the like to make key receptions. I'm interested in connecting with your sales team to introduce Yesware, and explain how we're the Kirk Cousins of Sales Tools...we come through in the clutch.

Mark, I'd love (if possible) to be referred to the best person on your sales team to introduce Yesware as a means to hit your growing revenue goals.

Enjoy your weekend!

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,
