Finding customers

Outreach writer

Draft a short, personal email and LinkedIn note for each lead, built around why the timing suits them.

What the Outreach writer does

Takes the people you want to contact and drafts a short email and LinkedIn note for each, built around why the timing suits them.

  1. Works with Your tracker or a list
  2. What it does Drafts an email and LinkedIn note
  3. What you get Drafts for you to check

Who it's for

Anyone with a list of people worth contacting who wants a personal first message rather than a template, whether the list came from the Lead finder or somewhere else.

Why I built it

Writing a good first message takes longer than finding the person. I split this out of my lead agent so every draft follows the same rules: acknowledge what has happened, ask one genuine question, and leave the pitch out.

What you'll need

An assistant with Gmail connected to save drafts, and Google Sheets if you use the tracker. Without them, it gives you each message to copy.

What to expect

It never sends anything. Read every draft before you do. You know your market better than it does.

How to use the Outreach writer

  1. Copy the prompt.

  2. Open Claude or another assistant. Connect Gmail to save drafts, and Google Sheets if you use the Lead finder's tracker.

  3. Paste the prompt. It picks up leads from your tracker, or asks for your list and a reason to contact each person now.

  4. It drafts each email and LinkedIn note, checks them against its rules, and saves them as drafts for you to read and send.
