To most effectively get people to help you, send them a "forwardable email"—something that fully contains all the context, so that all they have to do is hit "forward".
I remember the first time one of our investors asked me to send him a "forwardable email" to make an intro, I had no idea what he meant. I thought, "Isn't every email forwardable?" 😂 Anyway, wish I'd had this guide then. Do you have a good example of a template you like? Here's a post with an example that I like to share with others: https://www.startuphacks.vc/blog/2015/06/24/how-to-write-a-forwardable-introduction-email
