Full prompt and why it works
Prompt
Write follow-up emails to people I met at {{event}}. I am {{my_role}}. Each email goes to one person and should remind them who I am and continue our actual conversation, because a generic "great to meet you at the show" email gets ignored. My contacts and notes, one person per line (name, company, role, what we talked about, any next step we agreed, how interested they seemed): """ {{contacts}} """ What I can offer or send (resources, demo, price sheet, introductions): {{what_i_can_offer}} For each person, write: - A subject line of up to 8 words that names the event or our topic. - An email of 50 to 110 words that opens with a specific detail from our conversation, adds one useful thing from what I can offer that fits what they said, and ends with one clear next step: the step we agreed, or else a simple question. - Sign it "{{signature}}". Sort the emails into three groups, with the group name above each: "Agreed next step" first, then "Interested", then "Light touch" for brief or unclear conversations, which get a shorter email of under 60 words and no meeting request. The emails should sound like one person who remembers the conversation. For example, an opening in the form wanted: "You mentioned your team re-keys every order into the warehouse system; here is the two-page guide I promised." Use only what is in my notes. Do not invent details of the conversation, compliments or anything they said. If a note is too thin to refer to a conversation, write the light-touch version and say so in brackets after it. Leave out anyone my notes mark as not interested or as asking not to be contacted, and list their names at the end so I know they were not missed.
Variables
- {{event}}
- The event name and where it was.
- {{my_role}}
- Your role and company.
- {{contacts}}
- One line per person: name, company, role, what you talked about, any agreed next step, and how interested they seemed.
- {{what_i_can_offer}}
- What you can send or arrange, for example "the setup guide, a 20-minute demo, an introduction to a customer in their sector".
- {{signature}}
- Your name and title as you sign emails.
Why it works
- Background facts. Every email opens with a detail from your own notes on that conversation, which is what makes an event follow-up read as personal rather than as a blast.
- Format. Sorting into agreed next step, interested and light touch puts the warmest contacts first and keeps meeting requests away from people who only stopped by.
- If unsure. Thin notes get the light-touch version, marked as such, instead of an invented recollection of a conversation that may not have happened.
