HOW TO SECURE A SHADOW EXPERIENCE

Here’s the cold email template I used to secure meetings and shadow experiences with founders of Airbnb, Kiva, and Square. I bolded the key components for demonstration purposes only.

Subject: Dave McClure Shadow Finalist

Dear Stew,

I don’t normally cold email celebrities, but in this case I felt compelled to do so — I really admire your work with Mint. I am a young entrepreneur who is also from Canada and recently quit my job @ P&G, packed up my life, and moved down to SF — I am also one of the top 6 finalists out of a few hundred applicants to shadow Dave McClure for 2 weeks. I’m at the very early stages of my new startup — a calendar service that lets you see when your friends are free or busy using any calendar system on any device. I know you are probably very busy, but I was wondering if I could possibly grab 5 minutes of your time over the next few days to just learn from you, perhaps over coffee.

Hope to hear from you soon,

Jenn
