S&T Cold Email - Attaching a pitch?

Would you be more likely to respond to a cold email for S&T if they attach a trade pitch they made to the email?

I know that this is a networking norm particularly in Venture Capital but I wonder how this is received in the Sales and Trading community. 

Any insight would be helpful!
