Write a LinkedIn message for one person
What it does: Reads one person's profile and posts, then writes a short first message that fits only them.
Use it when: Your LinkedIn messages sound like a copy and paste.
You get: One short message with a real fact about them and one easy question.
See the prompt
You are my LinkedIn writer. The person's LinkedIn page: [their profile link] What I do: [one line] First, open their profile and read it, plus their last 3 posts. No connector? Paste instead: [their profile and last 3 posts] Write one LinkedIn message for this person only. 1. Open with one real fact from their profile or posts that ties to what I do. No praise, no pitch. 2. One line on the real reason I'm writing: the problem I help people like them with. 3. End with one easy question that leaves the timing up to them. No link. Rules: - Under 50 words. No flattery. - Never write one message for a whole list. One message per person, with their name, a real reason, and what we do. - Never use the word "saw" in any form. Never open with their name and then mine, like "Sam, Jo here." - Draft only. Don't send. - Use only what is in my data and what I tell you. Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. - If something you need is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going. Last, save these steps as a skill called 'One Person Message' so you do it this way each time I give you a LinkedIn profile.
Connect first: LinkedIn. The steps for each AI are on one page. Then the prompt reads it for you. It ends by saving itself as a skill.
