Email Template Creator

Build a library of reusable email templates for recurring professional situations. Each template is structured for clarity and includes customization points to keep emails personal.

Usage

Describe the email scenarios you handle regularly and your communication style. The skill produces:

• Template Library: Complete templates for your most common email types
• Customization Points: Marked sections to personalize each send
• Tone Variations: Formal, semi-formal, and casual versions
• Subject Lines: Effective subject lines for each template
• Follow-Up Sequences: Template chains for multi-touch communication
• Organization System: How to store and quickly access templates

Examples

1. Sales Templates: "Create templates for: cold outreach, follow-up after demo, proposal send, objection handling, deal won confirmation, and lost deal check-in."

1. Manager Templates: "Build templates for: project updates to leadership, team announcements, performance feedback, meeting requests with external stakeholders."

1. Client Service: "Design templates for: new client welcome, project kickoff, status updates, deliverable submissions, and feedback requests."

1. Networking Templates: "Create templates for: informational interview requests, event follow-ups, introduction requests, and reconnecting with old contacts."

Guidelines

• Templates should be 80% done — always leave room for personalization
• Write at a 6th-grade reading level for maximum clarity and speed of comprehension
• Keep emails under 5 sentences when possible — busy people skim
• Lead with the ask or key information — don't bury it at the bottom
• Include a specific CTA (call to action) in every email — what do you want them to do?
• Test templates with a few real sends before adding to your permanent library
• Review and update templates quarterly — stale templates feel generic
• Store templates where you send email (Gmail templates, text expander) not in a separate doc
