Subject: Forecast Reporting
Hi Kristina
Given the sales team’s growth [x% this year!] I imagine your forecasting has gotten a lot more complicated.
With more data from more sources – pulling reports can get time consuming.
We can help automate that.

Subject: growing sales team
Kristina,
Noticed your sales team has grown by x% in the last x months – great work!
When I talk to sales leaders with growing teams, they are typically struggling with
- Lack of visibility into their teams’ engagement with a key account
- Lack of insights to review each sales call of the team members
The teams at CASE STUDY use COMPANY to get visibility on which deals are moving faster and which ones are dragging in the pipeline.
They are also getting insights into the sales conversation in real-time
If that’s an issue, let’s connect?
Will
PS – Congrats on all the success with what is now {their company}. The latest funding news, plus the amount of openings on your career page, sounds like an exciting time to be with the org.

Subject: Accounts in Pipeline
Kristina
Saw your sales team has grown by x% in the last x months.
Typically, that means there’s a lack of:
- visibility into key account engagement
- insights into each sales call
The team at CASE STUDY use COMPANY to get visibility on which deals are dragging in the pipeline. They also get a live look at the conversations happening in those accounts.
Think this can help your team?
Will
PS -With the latest funding news and all the open roles, I bet it’s an exciting time to be with {their company}.
