Campaign Brief / Pilot

[THE OFFER IN PLAIN WORDS — not the company name, not a slogan]

[Two sentences: what the artefact is, and how it gets delivered.]

[Company] [Person, credentials as they write them] [Location or category] [D Mon YYYY]

The read

[One framing line. Blunt, because it matters more than the copy.]

[The thing they own that nobody is using, or the decision that reframes the campaign. Write this last.]

Why this offer

[Three directions were designed and argued against each other. Name the shared flaw of the two you killed, or use the table below.]

DirectionVerdict
1[Name]
[One line]
Chosen. [Why]
2[Name]
[One line]
[Why killed.] [What was kept from it.]
3[Name]
[One line]
[Why killed.] [What was kept from it.]

The offer is a dangle, not a giveaway. We say it exists and offer to walk through it. We do not attach it, link it or email it. The artefact is the reason for the meeting, not a substitute for it.

[VERB][What happens, one line.]
[VERB][What happens, one line.]
[VERB][The ask, capped. Twenty minutes and an explicit exit.]

[The honest trade-off, stated plainly.]

The messages

Blank connection request. Sends from [whose] personal profile. [Register.] No em dashes, no emojis. [What is never claimed.]

M1 · [label][NN] frame · ~[NN] filled
[Message exactly as it sends. Real line breaks. Variables wrapped like this: ]{{first_name}}

[Why this line does what it does. Mechanism, not sentiment.]

M2 · [label][NN] words
[New information, then the re-ask.]

[Why the second ask is honest rather than a nudge.]

M3 · the takeaway[NN] words
[One line, one question, no close.]

[Why it works. If a budget was broken, say why here.]

The recon

[How many lookups, how long per lead, and that no paid vendor is needed.]

1 [STEP IN CAPS] [What to do. Free source, named.] [Explicit DROP or route rule.] 2 [STEP IN CAPS] [What to do.] [Explicit DROP or route rule.] 3 LOG IT [What gets recorded per lead, so nothing is reused or contradicted.]

[The step that is the campaign rather than admin, and why.]

Targeting

TITLES [Named titles] EXCLUDE [Named titles. If an exclusion drops the whole COMPANY rather than the person, say so in caps.] SIZE [Headcount and the real qualifier underneath it.] SECTORS [Named sectors] TENURE [Range in role] GEOGRAPHY [Markets, one per batch if the recon is market-sensitive.]

Signals - what makes this timed rather than demographic

Before it sends

[The one that kills the campaign silently. Say so in the title.][What must be true, who confirms it, and what happens without it.]
Nothing is attached, linked or emailedThe artefact exists to earn the twenty minutes. If a reply asks for it by email, the answer is a time offer, not an attachment. Brief this before launch or the campaign quietly becomes a PDF drop.
The artefact exists before M1 goes outGenuinely built, per lead, not a promise to think about it later. M1 says it exists. A yes with nothing to show ends it.
[A fact only they can confirm][The exact question to ask them.]
[Proof boundary][What may be claimed, and what may not.]
