Hi {{first_name}},
I've sent a few notes about making prospecting easier at {{company_name}}, and I totally get that you're busy actually selling.
I'll stop bugging you. If you ever want to check out the tool, here's a standing invite — no demo needed, just sign up and try it.
Keep killing it out there. 5-9% reply rate

Personalization Tips
- If you offered a resource in a previous email, include a direct link one final time
- Keep the tone genuinely casual and supportive — ICs at small companies appreciate authenticity
- Reference a recent win or milestone for {{company_name}} as a genuine sign-off
- Make the self-serve option clear so they can try without a sales conversation
When to Use
After 2-3 unanswered follow-ups to a small SaaS IC, keeping it light and leaving a self-serve option.
When NOT to Use
If the IC indicated interest but got busy — a softer nudge might be better than a breakup.
