User research call invitation email template

Customers say yes to a research call when the ask is short, human and rewarded. Sent as a plain letter from a named researcher, with the length, format and thank-you gift spelled out, it feels low risk to accept.

When to use it

Pick a small group of active customers when you are about to rebuild or add a feature and want to hear how they use it today. Product teams, designers and founders recruiting interviewees can borrow it. Replies come more easily from a named person who reads them.

Make it yours

  • Send it from the person who will really run the calls, with their own photo.
  • Name the feature or area you are researching, so people know why you picked them.
  • Put the real incentive and its terms in the details and the small print, including how many calls you are offering.
