Hi {{first_name}},
Totally fair. At a shop the size of {{company_name}}, major decisions go through the owner and that's as it should be.
I can put together a one-page overview that covers what the tool does, what it costs, and the expected time savings. It's designed to give a busy owner everything they need to make a quick yes-or-no decision.
Would that be useful? Or if you'd prefer, I can reach out to them directly and mention that you flagged it as something worth looking at. 10-14% reply rate

Personalization Tips
- Reference the owner or decision maker by name if possible
- Mention the specific pain point the IC identified that motivated their initial interest
- Note the company size and how decisions typically get made at that scale
- Tailor the one-pager description to address likely owner concerns like cost and disruption
When to Use
Use when a floor-level employee at a small manufacturer expresses interest but says they lack decision-making authority.
When NOT to Use
Avoid if the person seems uncomfortable being the internal advocate and would prefer you not mention them.
