How does this skill ensure my outreach doesn't look like a generic template?

This skill enforces a 'strict personalization audit' that rejects any sentence which could apply to more than one prospect, ensuring your messages avoid the 'template' feel that triggers spam filters.

Which AI platforms and CRM tools is this skill compatible with?

The skill is framework-agnostic and designed for use within LLM interfaces like Claude or Cursor; you can then copy the generated text directly into CRM tools like HubSpot, Salesloft, or LinkedIn.

What exactly is included in my purchase of the Cold Outreach skill?

You will receive the proprietary skill configuration and a detailed implementation guide that enables the agent to enforce specific word counts, structures, and personalization constraints.

Can I use this skill to generate bulk email sequences from a CSV file?

No, this skill is purpose-built for high-value, quality-over-quantity outreach; it requires a unique observation for every prospect and will refuse to generate generic copy for bulk lists.

Does the skill help with follow-up messages, or only the initial cold contact?

Yes, the skill includes a specific module for three-touch follow-up sequences that use unique angles rather than the standard, low-value 'just checking in' approach.

How does the skill handle the different length requirements for Email versus LinkedIn?

The skill automatically adjusts its architecture based on your selection, enforcing a 90-word limit for emails and a strict 60-word limit for LinkedIn to maximize readability on mobile devices.

Cold Outreach: Personalised 4-Touch Sequences

I have drafted a 4-touch email sequence focused on the recent desktop app launch. I have applied the strict word count and structural rules, ensuring no generic flattery is included.

Outreach Sequence: Linear Growth

Touch 1 (Day 1)
Subject: new desktop app
Hi Sarah, noticed the new Linear desktop app just hit the store yesterday. Usually, a major platform shift like that introduces new friction points in the onboarding flow that impact week-one retention. I helped Slack reduce churn by 12% by running a specific retention audit on their desktop transition. Worth a 2-line reply on whether churn metrics for the new app are on your radar?

Touch 2 (Day 4)
Subject: re: new desktop app
Sarah, following up on the app launch. I put together a 2-point checklist on how Slack handled their deep-link transitions to keep users from dropping off during the install. Happy to send the PDF over if you think it would help the growth team.

Touch 3 (Day 9)
Subject: retention angle
Sarah, separate from the desktop launch, I saw your recent quote about Linear's focus on "keyboard-first" growth. We found that optimizing hotkey discoverability for power users increased daily active usage by 15% at Vercel. I'd be interested to see if that same logic applies to your current retention roadmap.

Touch 4 (Day 16)
Subject: closing the loop
Sarah, I'll stop here. If churn or retention audits become a priority for the desktop app later this year, I'm one reply away.

About this skill

One observation about the prospect, one relevant result, one low-friction ask. Everything else is deleted.

When to use it: Use it when you want to reach out to a company or person you have no relationship with, or ask for outreach/prospecting messages.

What you get: Touch 1 + touches 2–4, each with subject (email) or opener (LinkedIn), labeled with send-day. Then a personalisation check: list every sentence that is specific to this prospect. If fewer than 2, rewrite.

Works with Claude Code, Claude Cowork, Claude.ai Projects, Cursor, Codex CLI and any agent that reads SKILL.md. Markdown only: no scripts, no network access, no API keys.

Install: unzip into ~/.claude/skills/ and restart Claude Code, then describe your situation and the skill loads by itself.
