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
