Yep, the pitch sounds so ... generic. And like something Google and Microsoft could create over a weekend (see Calendly v Gmail: https://www.protocol.com/bulletins/google-is-coming-for-calendly)

Did you use the search bar at the top? Lots of great content there for this topic (people have linked some of them here like Sadnesslieutenant)

You can easily google this information and find helpful templates.

TLDR

- keep it short
- don't let your first ask be for a meeting time. Ask for interest first
- try to maximize personalization at scale without being exhaustive (you don't have all day to spend on a really catered email to 1 prospect)

just make sure your email is short, concise, and to the point, highlight a pain point you solve, share relevant (but not much) data, and give a clear CTA at the end, you can find a trillion cold email templates out there, but they may ask you for something creative and outside the box.
