A first-touch email that gets replies — not unsubscribes.

When to use it
Use when contacting a cold buyer lead from a purchased list, web form, or referral with limited context. Designed to start a conversation, not push a showing.
The prompt
Write a short, friendly first-touch email to a cold buyer lead.
Lead context:
- Name: {Client name}
- Area they're searching: {Target area}
- Price range: {Price range}
- What I already know about them: {What you know about them}
My info:
- My name: {Your name}
- Brokerage: {Brokerage}

Requirements:
- Maximum 4 short paragraphs
- No hard sell — lead with one piece of useful info about the area

- Conversational tone, not corporate
- Do not start with 'I hope this email finds you well' Fill in your details
Type your details below — the prompt above updates as you type. Then copy it.
Pro tips
- Reference one specific detail from their context early — proves you read it.
- If the lead came from an open house, swap 'cold' for 'warm' and mention the address.
- After the model writes the email, ask it: 'rewrite this 30% shorter'.
