Write COLD DM like this and get clients easily

Hello,
This is Mahmudul Hasan, working as a Co-Founder & CEO of Panze - UX Design Studio (https://panze.co/) & Slashit App (https://www.slashit.app/)

Beside this I am leading 1 Design Community & 1 Founder Community. I noticed most people send Cold DMs like this:
“Hi, I’m a UX designer. I can improve your website. Let me know if you want to talk.”

And get… nothing.
Long or generic messages are hard to reply to.

Here’s a simple 3 step way we use at Panze - UX Design Studio:

1. Compliment or notice their work – show you actually looked at what they do.
2. Show how you can help in 1 line – short and clear.
3. End with a simple question – easy to answer with yes or no.

Example:
“Hey Sarah,
I saw your new dashboard for the {{client app name}}. The layout looks good, but some flows could be smoother. I help teams improve UX so users complete tasks faster. Are you open to a quick review of your flows?”

Short. Clear. People reply.

I’ve tried this on dozens of prospects. DMs like this get 3x more responses than long, generic messages.

Stop explaining everything in your first DM. Try this formula: compliment, help, ask. That’s it.
