Hey everyone 👋 Ever think to yourself, "Why did I just spend 3 hours writing warm intro emails?" This is me perpetually. Katharine & the WizForm team here - we launched the company in April and throughout the process, we were frustrated with the 100+ hours spent writing emails to ask mutuals to connect us with someone and the additional 100+ hours spent writing emails to connect others. We built WizIntro to make the warm intro process simpler, less time consuming, and more efficient. How? 🕗 30 SECOND INTROS - make a warm intro request to a mutual connection with a simple form. 📥 NO EMAILS - mutual connections and the person you want to connect with can easily accept or decline the request with a click of a button. We automatically forward accepted requests so you don’t have to write a single email. 📁 STAY ORGANIZED - view all your intro requests in a single dashboard. I’ll be online to answer any questions or feedback! Please feel free to reach out to our team at support@wizform.com anytime :)
@wizform @katharine_jiang : Love the idea, this is truly great in the world of cold-hearted reachouts 😬 I did not get how it works though Katharine? What was your vision behind this?

@wizform @katharine_jiang @saascoach Joseph, thanks for the feedback! Here's how it works: 1. Find someone that you want to talk to but you don't know directly. 2. Find a friend that knows that person. For example, you could see that the friend is a 2nd degree connection with that person on LinkedIn. 3. Type in your friend's email into our tool and ask them to reach out to the target. 4. Click send and then we take it care of it from there. This should reduce the amount of time you spend on writing highly custom emails asking for intro requests.
@wizform @katharine_jiang @hardy_farrow : That's awesome, sure will ask my team to give it a try :)

?makers Congratulations on the launch!! This is god-sent 🤩 I just tried it and it works amazingly!! A few things I would suggest :) 1. The flow is (Initiator -> Mutual Connection -> Target) At present, the message between the initiator and the mutual connection is also shared with the target. I would not want that conversation to be shared with the target. Also, can there be to and fro between the initiator and the mutual, or the mutual and the target... to create a one-to-many sort of relationship, where mutual or the target can add more people to the flow. 2. Can the messages be updated on the dashboard as well? I received the emails but I would like to see them on the dashboard too. I understand this product may be at a very early stage but I see so much potential in it 😍

@adityavsc Thanks so much Aditya! 1. That's a great point, we will hide that initial message. A sort of relationship graph is definitely something that is on the horizon. 2. Do you mean you want to see the email thread in the dashboard as well?

@katharine_jiang Awesome! Love the product btw. Keeping track of intros on the email is such a task :( 2. Yes, presently, the dashboard just shows the names of the contacts and the status of the intro. Would be great if one could see the message sent to the mutual contact and the target. Will give a better perspective of the intro, without leaving the dashboard for the email inbox.

This is an excellent idea. Have you given any thought to incentives for introductions? For example if you have mutual connections that you don't necessarily know all that well (had one class with them), but they have even a tangential connection to someone high up/busy that would be critical for you to get connected to, what is their incentive to participate? In your experience, what was the yield on warm intros? In your experience, could an incentive to make introduction helped or just seem cheesy/forced/etc? @jorrel_s

@jorrel_s @payas_parab Thanks for the feedback! We haven't thought about incentives because we didn't want to make it "too" transactional. We believe its important that the target understands how well the middle-person knows the initiator (they get to rate them from 1-5 stars on how well they know them). If we offered incentives into it, it might ruin the trust factor. In terms of the yield, I typically see around 33% return on warm intros. It really depends on how well the middle-person knows the target (it could be a random LinkedIn connection or a best friend) and how relevant your ask is for the target person.

@jorrel_s @hardy_farrow Thanks for the response. I am agreed on the trust factor being something tricky to mitigate, I guess context of what the warm intros are for are important.

@katharine_jiang Love the product idea, it really helps to solve the problem of re-writing email intros and needed to find a way to keep track of the status - I did it in a spreadsheet or Notion currently. Just tested it out and would love to see future features to be build - (1) sync with a CRM, or has built-in CRM that syncs with my gmail contacts (2) a Chrome extension that can easily look up the LinkedIn profile of a person, then add them to "make intro" via WizIntro.

@katharine_jiang @whizzzoe These are awesome suggestions. We will definitely add these to future features on the roadmap!
