Hi {{first_name}}, quick question

Hi {{first_name}},

My name is [[your name]] and I'm a [[position]] at [[your company]], where we specialize in [[your customer-facing USP]]. I saw that you [[some connection--know Joe on LinkedIn, etc.]]!

I'm reaching out because, after checking out {{company}}'s website, know we could really help improve [[relevant KPI]].

Plus, I was really struck by [[something you honestly like about the business--what they're doing with services or products; swipe a line from their mission statement; etc.]]

Are you free for a 15 to 20 minute chat on [[date and time]] to discuss your strategy for [[your company's area of expertise]]?

Even if we don't end up moving forward, I'd be happy to share some ideas that will make an immediate impact :)

Hope to hear from you.

Thank you,
[[your name]]

New feature to solve [[XYZ]]

Hi {{first_name}},

It’s been awhile since we last chatted…how is everything going at {{company}}? Based on our last conversation about [[topic]], I think [[your company name feature]] could really boost {{company}}‘s bookkeeping abilities.

I’d love to provide you with more details. Would you be available for a quick chat or demo this week?

Best regards,

Partnership with [[company_name]]

Hey {{first_name}},

I'm [[your_name]], the owner of [[company_name]].

[[discuss your traffic sources]]

Example 1

Example 2

Example 3

We can send visitors to your product listings and generate tons of sales.

We already do so for similar products and are happy to show you the traffic and revenue numbers if you'd like.

We would like to offer a partnership where we do the following:

1) We continue to promote/list your products and further promote throughout our site

2) At the end of the month, we will send you a report showing the number of sales we generate for your products

3)You will pay us an additional commission (TBD) for each sale for our promotions.

This will incentivize us to promote you further and be compensated for it. This also benefits your brand since we actively promote your products, thus helping you receive more organic sales via Amazon.

We can share a report to show you what it would look like and be happy to discuss the details.
