About me mail
You'd like to write an "About Me" email, also known as a professional introduction or a networking email. This type of email is often used to introduce yourself to someone you'd like to connect with, whether it's a potential employer, a colleague, or a business partner.
Here's a sample outline to help you get started:
Subject: Introduction - [Your Name]
Body:
- Start with a brief introduction: "Hello [Recipient's Name], my name is [Your Name] and I am [Your Profession/Student/Entrepreneur]."
- Mention how you came across their work or company: "I came across your work/ company through [Source: e.g., LinkedIn, industry event, mutual connection]."
- Highlight your relevant skills, experience, or achievements: "With [Number] years of experience in [Industry/Field], I have developed skills in [Key Skills]. My most recent role at [Previous Company] has given me the opportunity to [Notable Accomplishment]."
- Express your interest in connecting: "I am excited to learn more about your work and explore potential opportunities for collaboration or discussion."
- End with a call-to-action: "Would you be open to a quick call or meeting to discuss further?"
Example:
