# Introduction message generator

> A double opt-in introduction message asks each person privately whether they want the introduction, and connects them only when both say yes.

## Key takeaways

- Ask each person privately before you introduce them. Either can say no without awkwardness.
- Share contact details only after both have said yes.
- A specific reason ("she has hired two CFOs this year") gets a better response than "you two should meet".
- Keep the final introduction short and step back once it is sent.

## How to use the introduction message generator

1. Enter person A and person B: a name and a short phrase about what each does.
2. Write why they should talk, as the end of the sentence "I think you two should talk because..."
3. Add how this came up and your name, and choose chat or email.
4. Send message 1 to person A and message 2 to person B, each privately.
5. When both say yes, send message 3 to both of them together.

## What is a double opt-in introduction message?

A double opt-in introduction is one where both people agree before they are connected. Instead of putting two people in a chat and hoping it goes well, the introducer asks each one privately first. Only when both say yes does the introducer send the message that connects them.

It protects both sides. Nobody's number is shared without permission, a busy person can decline quietly, and the person asking gets an introduction to someone who actually wants to help.

## Why ask first?

- Saying no in private is easy. Saying no in a group chat you were added to is not.
- It stops the most generous members from being overloaded, because they can decline when they are busy.
- Both people arrive at the introduction ready to talk, so fewer introductions go unanswered.
- It respects privacy: phone numbers and emails are shared only with consent.

## Writing a reason that gets a yes

| Vague | Specific |
| --- | --- |
| You two should connect. | Rahul ran paid ads for two skincare brands, and Priya is about to start hers. |
| She knows a lot about hiring. | She hired her first three engineers in Pune last year and can share what worked. |
| He might be able to help. | He sells to hospitals in Delhi, which is the buyer Arjun is trying to reach. |

## How Milvao handles introductions

Milvao runs this same pattern on a community's WhatsApp business number. A member asks privately, Milvao asks the best-fitting member if they can help, and numbers are shared only after two yeses: the person asking agrees to share theirs for that request, and the matched member accepts that introduction.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is a double opt-in introduction?

It is an introduction where the introducer asks both people privately first, and connects them only when both have said yes. Nobody's contact details are shared without their agreement.

### Who should I ask first?

Usually the person being asked for help, since they are the one giving time. If they say yes, check with the other person, then send the introduction to both.

### What if one person says no?

Thank them and leave it there. Tell the other person you couldn't arrange it this time, without passing on the reason, and look for someone else who could help.

### Is the introduction message generator free?

Yes. It is free, needs no sign-up and runs in your browser. The names and details you type are not sent anywhere.
