The big idea
AI cold DMs only work when you feed it real details about the person — generic templates get ignored or marked spam.
Some examples
- Tell AI: 'They run a sneaker reselling account, 12K followers, posted about Jordan 4s yesterday.'
- Ask AI to keep it under 4 sentences and skip the word 'just.'
- Have AI write 3 versions and pick the least cringe.
Try it!
Pick someone you actually want to reach. Give AI 4 facts about them and ask for a 3-sentence DM.
