Email Template
Hi {{first_name}},

I have reached out a couple of times and I know running {{company_name}} keeps you busy, so I will keep this short.

A small catering company I worked with recently was struggling with the same feast-or-famine booking cycle that most small event businesses face. After implementing a simple weekly outreach routine targeting local businesses and HR departments, they saw a forty percent increase in bookings over two quarters.

The founder told me the biggest surprise was how many companies in her area had never been approached by a local caterer and were happy to learn about the option.

If you are curious about how this could work for {{company_name}}, I am here. If not, no hard feelings at all.
