    It’s a response to a problem.
    Stop listing your skills.
    Start explaining how you’ll solve the client’s pain.

    Here’s my simple 3-part structure:

    1. Hook = mention something specific about their project.

    2. Reassurance = show you’ve done similar work.

    3. Next step = tell them what you’ll do first and ask a question.
      Takes 5 mins. Works like magic.

    I keep overthinking the ‘hook’ part. Any tips?

      Look for clues in their tone, goals or problem statement. Mirror that back.
