What do I do if someone I reached out to (like an interior designer) responds positively and asks to see my portfolio?

Use an AI writing assistant to help craft your response. Provide context: explain the backstory of your outreach, paste in the designer’s reply, mention what you liked about their profile (like how authentic they seemed), and ask the assistant to draft a response. Be genuine and excited in your reply. Share what you’ve been creating, your business background, and offer a brief overview of your work. If you already have a portfolio ready, attach or link to it. The key is being real and enthusiastic—if they came across as personable and sincere on social media, match that energy in your communication.
