When to Activate writing a cold email to an investor drafting a warm intro request sending follow-ups after a meeting or no response writing investor updates during a process tailoring outreach based on fund thesis or partner fit Core Rules Personalize every outbound message. Keep the ask low-friction. Use proof instead of adjectives. Stay concise. Never send copy that could go to any investor. Voice Handling If the user's voice matters, run brand-voice first and reuse its VOICE PROFILE . This skill should keep the investor-specific structure and ask discipline, not recreate its own parallel voice system. Hard Bans Delete and rewrite any of these: "I'd love to connect" "excited to share" generic thesis praise without a real tie-in vague founder adjectives begging language soft closing questions when a direct ask is clearer Cold Email Structure subject line: short and specific opener: why this investor specifically pitch: what the company does, why now, and what proof matters ask: one concrete next step sign-off: name, role, and one credibility anchor if needed Personalization Sources Reference one or more of: relevant portfolio companies a public thesis, talk, post, or article a mutual connection a clear market or product fit with the investor's focus If that context is missing, state that the draft still needs personalization instead of pretending it is finished. Follow-Up Cadence Default: day 0: initial outbound day 4 or 5: short follow-up with one new data point day 10 to 12: final follow-up with a clean close Do not keep nudging after that unless the user wants a longer sequence. Warm Intro Requests Make life easy for the connector: explain why the intro is a fit include a forwardable blurb keep the forwardable blurb under 100 words Post-Meeting Updates Include: the specific thing discussed the answer or update promised one new proof point if available the next step Quality Gate Before delivering: the message is genuinely personalized the ask is explicit the proof point is concrete filler praise and softener language are gone word count stays tight
