📋 Template
Subject: Still exploring [Solution Area] for [Company]?

Hi [First Name],

I'm following up on my previous note regarding [Pain Point] at [Company].

Usually, when I don't hear back, it means one of two things:
1. This is no longer a priority for you this quarter.
2. You've just been swamped and haven't had time to review.

If it's the latter, here is a quick 2-minute video showing exactly how we helped [Similar Company] save [X hours/dollars] last month: [Link to Video].

Let me know if this merits a brief chat.

Best,
[Your Name]

💡 Pro Tip

The 'permission to close the file' or '1, 2, 3' framework works incredibly well for getting a definitive yes or no from busy prospects.
