Email Template
Hi {{first_name}},
Following up on my previous note about tracking adoption health at {{company_name}}. I wanted to share a pattern we keep seeing.
Across the mid-market edtech platforms we work with, there is a consistent drop-off around day 60 after initial deployment. Teachers who make it past that point tend to stay. Those who do not almost never come back on their own.
The tricky part is that most CS teams do not have visibility into individual teacher engagement at that level of granularity, so at-risk accounts look fine in aggregate until it is too late.
Would it help to see how other teams your size are solving this? 7-10% reply rate

Personalization Tips
- Reference a recent customer success hire or team restructuring at their company
- Mention a specific school year milestone that aligns with the adoption timeline
- Note their customer health scoring approach if mentioned in job postings or articles
- Connect to a churn challenge mentioned in a Glassdoor review or investor update
When to Use
When following up with mid-market edtech managers responsible for customer success or product adoption who did not respond to the first email.
When NOT to Use
When the company has recently announced strong retention metrics publicly, making the churn angle less relevant.
