The four heights

The same task, four distances: today's deadline, the next reviewer, the stuck moment, the pattern.

I want to reach out to Marco, head of product at WaveShift, to ask about potential openings. Send a connection request on Monday that mentions I saw his talk at ProductConf, says I’m exploring senior PM roles in fintech, and asks if he has five minutes for coffee; keep it under 40 words and make the ask easy to decline.

Improve — make it easier to accept

Before I send Marco a connection request, make it easy for him to say yes: pull the talk title he gave at ProductConf, surface a shared interest in fintech payments, and suggest a brief, low-effort next step (15-minute virtual coffee). Keep the language respectful and specific to his role at WaveShift.

Decide — diagnose the stuck moment

Drafting a cold connection to a senior product leader; unsure what hook will land.

I’m about to request a connection with Marco, who spoke on payments at ProductConf. I don’t know whether to lead with praise or a concrete ask. Which opener gets higher accept rates for senior product leaders, and give me a 30–35 word connection message that references his talk and proposes a short informational chat without sounding transactional.

Become — change the pattern

Cold connection requests rarely get responses beyond an accept.

Over months I send cold connection requests to product leaders and most accepts never convert to conversations. What one change in my opener or follow-up habit will double conversion to a reply? Recommend the habit, a short script for the follow-up and when to send it.

Every task here came from the work, not from a feature list — which is why the prompts name what you want done and never the button that does it. The tool changes; the work does not.
