Prompt / template
Rewrite only the first and last two sentences of this message. Cut throat-clearing openers ("I hope this email finds you well", "In today's world", "Great question!") and canned closers ("I hope this helps!", "Let me know if you have any other questions", "Feel free to reach out"). Start with the point or the ask. End with one specific next step or nothing at all. Give me two options for each.
