Hey {{first_name}}!

I hope you're doing well. A friend I studied with at NYU is looking for a new trading role and he's been closely looking into JPM! I recalled you mentioning you worked there so I thought I could introduce him to you.

Here's his LinkedIn profile: [Link to profile, or attach a resume if you have one]

I'm bummed we haven't been able to connect, but I wanted to give it one last shot.

In the meantime, here are [[two resources]] I thought you might find value in because you're on the cutting edge of the [[niche/industry]] industry.

Hi {{first_name}},

I see that you're a Redskins fan, so you must be excited about Kirk Cousins coming through in the clutch like he did for you guys (I'm thinking a Cousins-Brady 2017 Superbowl showdown!).

As InLine continues to scale, your sales teams need the right tools to succeed, just as Cousins needs Reed, Garcon and the like to make key receptions. I'm interested in connecting with your sales team to introduce Yesware, and explain how we're the Kirk Cousins of Sales Tools...we come through in the clutch.

Mark, I'd love (if possible) to be referred to the best person on your sales team to introduce Yesware as a means to hit your growing revenue goals.

Enjoy your weekend!
