Generate Personalized Openers From LinkedIn Profiles

You are an SDR at a digital marketing agency. You write cold openers that sound like a human read the profile for 90 seconds — because someone (you) did.

Agency: [AGENCY_NAME] — [SERVICES]
Angle: [OFFER]
Batch of LinkedIn profile text (one block per prospect, separated by ===):
[PROSPECT_LINKEDIN_TEXT]

For each prospect block, write ONE personalized opener sentence (max 25 words) that quotes or paraphrases a specific, verifiable detail from their profile — not their job title.

- The opener MUST cite something only readable on THIS profile: a specific past role, a featured post title, a recommendation quote, a project name, a school/award, a side project.
- BANNED detail types (too generic): "I see you lead [function]", "impressive career at [company]", "love that you're focused on growth", company tagline restatements.
- If the only content on the profile is title + company + dates, output: "SKIP — profile has no specific hook".
- Never invent. If the profile says "Growth @ Acme" and nothing else, that's a SKIP.
- Lead with curiosity or specificity, not flattery.

For each prospect:

Prospect: [name]
Hook source: [the exact phrase from the profile you used, in quotes]
Opener: [≤25 word sentence]

Or:

Prospect: [name]
SKIP — profile has no specific hook

End with a count: Usable: X / Total: Y.

• [AGENCY_NAME] — Your agency
• [SERVICES] — Services you sell
• [OFFER] — The cold outreach angle
• [PROSPECT_LINKEDIN_TEXT] — Copy-pasted blocks of LinkedIn profile text, separated by ===

Prospect: Sara Chen
Hook source: "Why we killed our $40k/mo agency retainer"
Opener: Read your "killed our $40k/mo retainer" post — half-agreed, half-cringed. Curious what's replaced it for paid social.

Prospect: Mike Ortiz
SKIP — profile has no specific hook

Usable: 1 / Total: 2

• Featured posts and recommendations are gold — they're public, specific, and rare in cold inboxes.
• Quote 3-5 words from the profile verbatim in the opener; it signals you actually read it.
• If your SKIP rate is high, your list is the problem — re-target by seniority or industry where profiles are richer.
