Investor Outreach

Write investor communication that is short, personalized, 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, not adjectives.
  4. Stay concise.
  5. Never send generic copy that could go to any investor.

Cold Email Structure

  1. subject line: short and specific
  2. opener: why this investor specifically
  3. pitch: what the company does, why now, what proof matters
  4. ask: one concrete next step
  5. sign-off: name, role, 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, ask for it or state that the draft is a template awaiting personalization.

Follow-Up Cadence

Default:

  • day 0: initial outbound
  • day 4-5: short follow-up with one new data point
  • day 10-12: 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:

  • message is personalized
  • the ask is explicit
  • there is no fluff or begging language
  • the proof point is concrete
  • word count stays tight
