Ask for referrals

Tips:

Use this template if the UserGems lead's new company doesn't fit your ICP
Having a referral is always better than a cold outreach, and people are more wiling to help than you’d think.
Once you get a referral, put the referrer’s name in the subject line to increase the open rate.

Your experience at Previous-Company with ACME

Hey Adam,

Congrats on the new gig! Hope you had a good experience with us when you were at Previous-Company.

Do you have any friends, family, or enemies could benefit from an intro to ACME? It'd be much appreciated.

Good luck and hope we can partner again down the road!
