Subject: Quick question about [Company] / [Relevant Topic]

Hi [Name],

I noticed that [Company] recently [Mention a recent trigger event: e.g., expanded into the European market / hired 10 new sales reps].

When companies go through that transition, they usually run into [Pain Point]. Have you guys figured out how to solve that yet, or are you still handling it manually?

If it's still frustrating your team, I have a quick 2-page PDF showing exactly how we solved this for [Competitor]. 

Worth a look?

Best,
[Your Name]

💡 Pro Tip

Do not pitch your product. Do not attach the PDF in the first email. Ask for permission (the 'Permission to Send' framework). Your reply rate will triple.
