SDR Outreach Cadence
An SDR outreach cadence design prompt covering a multi-channel touch timeline, email/voicemail templates, LinkedIn touchpoints, and a breakup email. Use it when building an SDR outreach sequence that needs multi-channel, multi-touch structure.
What it does
This prompt designs multi-channel SDR outreach sequences for sales development. Given the target persona, company size, industry, product/service, conversion goal, sequence length, channels (email, phone, LinkedIn, direct mail), and value proposition, it generates a complete cadence timeline, email templates for each touch, voicemail scripts, LinkedIn touchpoints, and A/B test variations. It provides a fully worked 14-day, 9-touch cadence mixing channels: a Day 1 value-led introduction email, a Day 2 LinkedIn connection request referencing the email with no pitch, a Day 3 introduction call with a voicemail fallback, a Day 5 value-add email sharing content with no ask, a Day 7 follow-up call with a new angle, a Day 8 LinkedIn engagement touch (like/comment, no direct pitch), a Day 10 social-proof email with a case study and clear meeting CTA, a Day 12 final call attempt creating urgency, and a Day 14 breakup email that leaves the door open. It closes with best practices: mix channels strategically, vary message angles, always add value, personalize at scale, track and iterate, and respect "no" signals.
When to use - and when NOT to
Use this prompt when building an SDR outreach sequence - designing a full multi-touch, multi-channel cadence timeline, writing the email template for a specific touch (value-led intro, value-add, social proof, breakup), writing a voicemail script for a call touch, or planning a non-pitchy LinkedIn touchpoint.
It does not cover the SDR's discovery call script once a meeting is booked - it is focused specifically on the pre-meeting outreach sequence.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs are the target persona, company size, industry, product/service, conversion goal, sequence length, channels, and value proposition. Outputs include a full cadence timeline, for example the opening sequence:
Day 1 - Email 1 (Value-Led Introduction): Problem statement, brief solution, soft CTA
Day 2 - LinkedIn Connection Request: Personalized note referencing email, no pitch
Day 3 - Phone 1 (Introduction Call): Voicemail fallback, reference email sent
Day 5 - Email 2 (Value Add): Share relevant content/insight, no ask
Other outputs include the full 9-touch, 14-day sequence through a breakup email, voicemail scripts for each call touch, non-pitchy LinkedIn engagement ideas, and A/B test variations for message angle and timing.
Who it's for
SDRs and sales development leaders building outreach cadences who need a proven multi-channel sequence structure rather than a single-channel email blast.
