=== INPUTS ===
My Role: {{MY_ROLE}}
Their Role: {{THEIR_ROLE}}
Their Company: {{THEIR_COMPANY}}
Specific Reason for Connecting: {{REASON}}
What You Have in Common: {{COMMONALITY}} (mutual connection, shared experience, same industry, etc.)
=== RULES ===
- Maximum 280 characters (leaves buffer under LinkedIn's 300 limit)
- Do NOT pitch anything
- Do NOT mention your product or service
- Reference the commonality in the first line
- Give ONE reason you want to connect that isn't transactional
- Sound warm, not scripted
=== BAD EXAMPLES (never produce these) ===
"Hi {firstname}, I noticed we're both in the SaaS space. Would love to connect!"
"Hi, I'd love to add you to my professional network."
"I help companies like yours with X. Let's connect to explore synergies."
=== GOOD EXAMPLES (this kind of tone) ===
"Saw your post on the 3-2-1 hiring framework — that reframing of culture-add vs culture-fit is sharp. Would like to follow more of your thinking."
=== OUTPUT ===
1. Primary connection request note
2. Two alternate versions
3. A recommended FIRST MESSAGE to send 3-5 days after they accept (still zero pitch — warm only)
