Hi {{FirstName}},
I haven’t heard back from you about your thoughts on {{Your_Company}}. My 'Sherlock Holmes' 🔍 super-powers are telling me it may be a few things:
1. you love the concept but the time isn’t right
2. you love the concept but it isn't something you’re interested in
3. you love the concept but you don’t have any plans for email automation
4. you aren’t interested at all
Please let me know which one it is. In case you don’t reply, I will assume it is option #1 :)
Looking forward to hearing from you.
