The complete request
Subject: Short professional message
Hi {name},
It was good working together on {project}. Would you be comfortable sharing a few words about the collaboration? I can send a short collection link if that suits you.
{collection_link}
We only publish with your permission. Thank you,
{sender}The shorter note
Hi {name} — It was good working together on {project}. Would you be comfortable sharing a few words about the collaboration? I can send a short collection link if that suits you.
Share here if you would like: {collection_link}
Thank you, {sender}The context-first request
Hi {name},
If you have two minutes, what should someone considering {business} know about your experience? It was good working together on {project}. Would you be comfortable sharing a few words about the collaboration? I can send a short collection link if that suits you.
Your own words are best. Publication is optional: {collection_link}
{sender}Why this works
Asking before sending a link fits an existing professional conversation.
Avoid this mistake
Do not mass-message strangers or copy a profile recommendation without permission.
Replace every placeholder and choose a channel the recipient expects. ProofWall does not send these messages for you. Email notifications and automated request campaigns are not part of this version.
Keep permission separate
The collection form asks for permission to publish. Never treat a reply to a private message as permission to post their name, company or words. Disclose incentives and material connections; do not ask only for a positive rating.
