Follow-Up Curiosity Questions for Sales Teams
B2B sales prompt for second-touch outreach that helps revive stalled conversations with a single, high-signal question. This prompt generates a one-sentence follow-up tailored to the prospect’s role and optionally their industry, designed for the second or third cold email where brevity and intrigue drive responses. It uses the first letter of the job title to vary the opening word, keeping sequences fresh at scale and preventing pattern fatigue in outbound campaigns. Ideal for B2B sales and marketing teams running cold email, multistep sequences, and SDR workflows, it creates curiosity without flattery or hard pitches and avoids clichés and generic phrasing. Input data: job title as {{property_1}} and optional industry as {{property_2}}. Output: one plain text question that signals you know something worth sharing and invites the reply, improving open-to-reply conversion in follow-ups. Use it in sequencing tools or CRM workflows to automate thoughtful nudges, enrich personalization across roles, and test variants by seniority or vertical. This outbound prompt for prospecting is especially useful when you need a light touch to reengage, qualify interest, or uncover blockers without adding friction. If the job title is missing, the prompt still returns a valid casual opener, ensuring consistent delivery across incomplete records. If your input arrives in another language, the prompt logic remains the same and the final description here is in English.
