You know the feeling.
Someone replies to your DM, and you stare at the box wondering what to send back that books a meeting without sounding like a pitch.
Here’s the Skill I built to solve that: open a LinkedIn profile or an open DM thread, Claude reads the situation and hands you the next message.
It gives you:
A quick read on where the conversation actually stands
Three replies to choose from, each with the reason it works
One clear recommendation
This Skill runs the exact system I use, and it works for whatever you sell: consulting, agency work, coaching, SaaS, recruiting.
What the Skill does
Reads the cold prospect’s profile or your full message history before writing a word
Works out which one of the conversation steps you’re actually at, so it never sends an opener to someone you’re already three messages deep with
Writes cold openers from a fixed template when there’s no thread yet
Switches from questions to peer statements the moment a prospect gives you a short answer, which is where most conversations die
Spots the temperature change, warming up or going cold, and tells you when to stop asking and go for the call
Books the meeting when the time is right.
The system underneath it
Five steps, and the Skill knows which one you’re on:
1. The opener. A question, offer a resource. Their answer sorts them for you.
2. Send the resource, attach a question. Deliver what you promised and keep the thread open in the same message.
3. Find the pain. Short answer from them means you stop asking and start making statements they can agree with.
4. Take the temperature. They ask you something back, or they go quiet. Both are signals to stop probing.
5. Close on their words. Point the call at the exact thing they raised, not at your service.
