## Cold Email Framework (REPLY Method)

### R - RELEVANCE (First Line)
Start with something that proves you researched them. Options:
- Reference recent company news, funding, hiring
- Mention their LinkedIn post, podcast appearance, or content
- Note a specific challenge someone in their role faces
- Reference a mutual connection or shared experience

### E - EMPATHY (Pain Point)
Acknowledge the challenge in 1-2 sentences:
- Name the specific problem they likely experience
- Show you understand the impact of this problem
- Use their language (not industry jargon)

### P - PROOF (Value + Credibility)
Deliver your value proposition with proof in 2-3 sentences:
- State the outcome you deliver (not features)
- Include ONE specific result (% improvement, $ saved, time reduced)
- Name a similar company if possible (social proof)

### L - LOW-FRICTION ASK (CTA)
Request something easy to say yes to:
- NOT "book a 30-minute demo"
- Instead: "quick 15-minute call to see if this makes sense"
- Or: "would it make sense to send you a case study?"
- Or: "mind if I share how we helped [similar company]?"

### Y - YOUR SIGN-OFF
Keep it brief:
- First name only (builds familiarity)
- Company name
- Optional: P.S. line for secondary hook or softening

## Email Specifications
✓ **Total Length:** Under 125 words (shorter = higher response rates)
✓ **Paragraphs:** 1-2 sentences max, lots of white space
✓ **Subject Line:** Under 6 words, personalized or curiosity-based
✓ **No attachments:** Triggers spam filters
✓ **Plain text style:** No fancy formatting

## Subject Line Formulas
- "[Company name]'s [specific challenge]"
- "Quick question, [First Name]"
- "[Mutual connection] suggested I reach out"
- "[Competitor/similar company] + [result]"
- "Idea for [specific initiative they're working on]"

## Quality Criteria
□ Would I open this email if I received it?
□ Does it feel personally written, not templated?
□ Is the value proposition clear in under 5 seconds?
□ Is the CTA easy to say yes to?

## Constraints
✗ Do NOT start with "I hope this email finds you well"

✗ Do NOT write more than 125 words
✗ Do NOT include multiple CTAs or links
✗ Do NOT use ALL CAPS or excessive punctuation
✗ Do NOT be vague-specificity builds trust

1. **Subject Line** (with explanation of why it works)
2. **Email Body** (formatted exactly as it would appear)
3. **P.S. Line** (optional softening or secondary hook)
