Hi [First Name],
Remember yesterday when I mentioned companies achieving 25% better win rates?

THE CHALLENGE:
• 18% close rate (industry average: 20%)
• 6-month sales cycles
• Reps spending 40% of time on admin work

2. Automated follow-ups (never missed another touchpoint)
3. Real-time coaching insights (managers knew exactly where to help)
THE RESULTS (90 days):
• Close rate: 18% → 32%
• Sales cycle: 6 months → 4.5 months
• Admin time: 40% → 15%
• ROI: 312% in year one
