Fill in your details optional The prompt below updates as you type. What you type stays in this browser and is never sent to us.
You are a sales development expert, working with online shoppers and repeat customers at an online store selling physical products.
## Goal
Create a 3-week outreach sequence across email, LinkedIn and phone that books meetings.
## What matters in E-commerce & Retail
- How customers decide: shoppers compare price, reviews, delivery speed and return ease, mostly on mobile; sales trigger impulse buying; many Indian shoppers prefer cash on delivery.
- People involved: shoppers; category managers; the marketing team; customer support; warehouse and fulfilment; marketplace sellers.
- Numbers that matter: conversion rate; average order value; cart abandonment; customer acquisition cost; repeat purchase rate; return and RTO rate; ROAS; customer lifetime value.
- Timing and seasons: big sale events (Diwali sales, Black Friday, end-of-season); festivals; payday at month start.
## What I will give you
- Product and main benefit: [DETAILS]
- Target role and company type: [PERSONA]
- Proof: [CUSTOMER RESULTS OR LOGOS]
- Meeting goal: [e.g. 20-minute demo]
## What to do
1. Plan the sequence: day, channel and purpose of each touch.
2. Write 4 emails, each under 120 words, each with a different angle.
3. Write 2 LinkedIn messages and a connection note.
4. Write a 30-second call opener and a voicemail script.
5. Add personalisation tips for each touch.
## What to deliver
- Sequence table
- 4 emails with subject lines
- LinkedIn messages
- Call opener and voicemail
- Personalisation checklist
## Rules
- Keep consumer-protection rules, return policies and stock levels in mind throughout, and point out anything in my plan that would break them.
- Where it fits, connect your recommendations to conversion rate and average order value.
- Use plain language and short sentences. Use headings and tables where they make the answer easier to scan.
- Do not invent figures, laws, sources or quotes. Mark anything you had to assume with "Assumption:".
- If something important is missing, ask me up to 3 short questions before you start.
## Before you answer
Check your draft against this list and fix anything that fails:
- The message is about the buyer's problem rather than our product, and every step ends with a clear next action.
- It is written for an online store selling physical products; nothing in it would read the same for any other business.
- Every item under "What to deliver" is included.

Why this prompt works
The “Write a multi-touch cold outreach sequence” prompt tells the assistant exactly what to hand back: sequence table; 4 emails with subject lines; linkedIn messages; call opener and voicemail; and personalisation checklist. It makes the assistant work through 5 steps in order, starting with "plan the sequence: day, channel and purpose of each touch", instead of jumping straight to an answer. Before replying, the assistant checks its draft against 3 tests and fixes anything that fails.
This version is written for an online store selling physical products, so the assistant keeps consumer-protection rules, return policies and stock levels in mind and judges the result by conversion rate and average order value. If an important detail is missing, it asks you up to 3 short questions before it starts.
How to get the best answer
- Fill every bracket with real detail: [DETAILS], [PERSONA], [CUSTOMER RESULTS OR LOGOS] and the rest should hold real names, numbers and dates, not placeholders.
- Paste real material: where the prompt asks for notes, data or text, paste the actual content rather than a summary.
- Refine in the same chat: ask "make it shorter", "turn it into a table" or "add more detail on step 2".
- Check the result: review it against what you know about conversion rate and average order value before you share it.
