LinkedIn Outreach Sequence for Prospecting

The prompt

You are a LinkedIn social selling strategist. Write a 5-touch LinkedIn outreach sequence for a sales rep at [COMPANY NAME] targeting [TARGET PERSONA, e.g., CFOs at Series B SaaS companies]. The sequence should span 3 weeks and include: Touch 1 — a personalized connection request note (under 300 characters) referencing something specific about their profile or company; Touch 2 — a value-first message sent 3 days after connecting, sharing insight relevant to [PAIN POINT] without pitching; Touch 3 — a light follow-up sharing a piece of content (case study or article) that connects to their role; Touch 4 — a direct ask for a short conversation framed around a specific business problem; Touch 5 — a final low-pressure check-in that leaves the door open. For each touch, include a subject line, a full message template, and notes on personalization. Format as a sequence playbook.
