đź’Ž The Perfect First Message
Key Elements
- Personalization (shows you’ve done your research)
- Brevity (respects their time)
- Value proposition (what’s in it for them)
- Credibility indicator (why they should trust us)
- Clear next step (what happens if they respond)
TIP
Your first message should be no more than 3-4 sentences. Save the details for after they express interest.
Message Formula

SUCCESS
Good Example: “Hi [Name], I love your creative approach to fitness content—your workout series last month was impressive! I’m reaching out because Chevalierian helps creators like you increase revenue while reducing workload. We manage several top 3% creators who’ve doubled their income in 6 months. Would you be open to a quick chat about how we might help you grow?”
FAILURE
Bad Example: “Hey there! I can help you get 10,000 new fans in just one month! Our agency Chevalierian is the best in the business and we have tons of marketing strategies, content plans, chatting services, and promotional tools that will skyrocket your OnlyFans income immediately! Let me know if you want me to send you our 20-page brochure with all our services and pricing options!”
đźš« Common Messaging Mistakes
Unrealistic Promises
❌ Promising specific fan counts
- “We’ll get you 5,000 new fans in a month”
- “You’ll double your subscribers in 30 days”
âś… Instead, use credible success indicators
- “Our clients typically see 30-50% growth in their first quarter”
- “We’ve helped creators in your niche increase their subscriber retention by 40%“
Information Overload
❌ Overwhelming with details
- Listing all services in the first message
- Explaining your entire business model
- Sending lengthy paragraphs about the company
âś… Instead, focus on starting a conversation
- Highlight one key benefit relevant to their specific situation
- Save details for when they express interest
- Use questions to engage rather than statements to inform
🔄 Follow-Up Strategy
Timing
Contact Attempt | Timing | Focus |
---|---|---|
Initial Message | Day 0 | Introduction and value proposition |
Follow-Up #1 | Day 3-4 | Add new value/information |
Follow-Up #2 | Day 7-10 | Different angle/benefit |
Final Attempt | Day 14-21 | ”Closing the loop” |
Follow-Up Principles
- Always add new value in each follow-up
- Never appear desperate or pushy
- Vary contact times to catch them at different moments
- Reference previous messages but don’t copy/paste them
- Respect signs of disinterest and know when to move on
TIP
The “closing the loop” message often gets the highest response rate. It signals you’re moving on, which removes pressure and often prompts a response.
📱 Platform-Specific Approaches
- DM Length: Keep under 300 characters
- Tone: Professional but conversational
- Visual Elements: Consider using a simple, professional image in follow-ups
- Timing: Afternoons and evenings typically see higher engagement
TikTok
- DM Length: Ultra-brief (1-2 sentences max)
- Tone: Casual and direct
- Strategy: Comment meaningfully on content first, then DM
- Approach: Reference specific TikTok content in your message
🎯 Qualifying and Transitioning
The goal of your messaging is to:
- Confirm they’re interested in agency services
- Establish basic qualification (they meet our criteria)
- Transition the conversation to leadership
Transition Language
SUCCESS
Good Transition: “Based on what you’ve shared, I think you’d be a great fit for our agency. The next step would be a brief call with our leadership team who can answer your specific questions about growth strategies for your content niche. Would you be open to that?”
