Generic connection requests get ignored or declined. This prompt personalizes the note with a specific reason and keeps it pitch-free, which dramatically raises acceptance and opens the door to a real conversation later.
How to customize it
- Reference something specific from their profile or work.
- Don't pitch in the first message; build rapport first.
- Stay under the 300-character limit.
Tip: replace the parts in [square brackets] with your own details before you send. The more specific you are — audience, tone, goal, constraints — the better the AI output.
