1. SHORT
5 Lines or Less Whitespace is your friend Imagine they are reading it on their phone / not big screen

2. PERSONALIZED
Bare Minimum use their name Take the time to “get it right” The more personalization points the better Test using first name in Subject Line

3. ABOUT THEM AND NOT YOU
Not a Resume Even Your Mother Doesn’t Care about your Awards WIIFM - What’s In It For Me? Display an Understanding of their Issues

4. OFFER VALUE
Value is Relative Value = Insight/New Ideas “Filter the Firehose”
![Page 11: Outbound Lead Gen - Messaging](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022030204/58a983f41a28ab412d8b4c13/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
5. CALL TO ACTION
Don’t be Vague Make it Easy - “Just hit Reply” Follow-up with CTA reworded in PS Ask for Less Earlier in Cadence

MESSAGING & TONEDon’t Beg, Plead, or Apologize
Don’t Use 5 words, when 3 will do
Poke them in the Eye
Shit Sandwich (You’re Great - You Suck - You’re Great)
Fun & Playful generally Trumps Serious & Grave (test)
