Investor Outreach
Write investor communication that is short, concrete, and easy to act on.
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
1. Personalize every outbound message. 2. Keep the ask low-friction. 3. Use proof instead of adjectives. 4. Stay concise. 5. 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
1. subject line: short and specific 2. opener: why this investor specifically 3. pitch: what the company does, why now, and what proof matters 4. ask: one concrete next step 5. 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
