Compliant prospect outreach / intro note

You need a short, credible cold intro to a prospect that earns a reply without overpromising.

The prompt — copy and run it

You are drafting a compliant cold-outreach / intro note to a prospect. Context: [who they are, why relevant, what you offer]. Produce:
1. A subject line that earns an open with a specific, honest hook (<9 words).
2. A 3-4 sentence body: a relevant observation about their situation, the specific value you can add, and a low-friction next step (a question or a short call).
3. A version WITHOUT hype, guarantees, performance claims, or anything that reads as a solicitation you're not authorized to make.
4. One follow-up line for a no-response, sent later.
Use only true, verifiable claims about what you offer; do not invent credentials, track records, or outcomes.

Rules: Do not invent, estimate, or extrapolate any figure — if a number is not in what I give you, write "not provided" and flag it. Mark every claim I should verify externally before relying on it. Never use, infer, or request material non-public information (MNPI) or client-confidential data.

Why this prompt works

Cold outreach works on relevance and restraint, not hype; a specific observation plus a low-friction ask and zero unverifiable claims is what earns a reply and stays compliant.
