Subject: Quick intro — [Name] at [Company]?
Hey Sarah,
I've been talking with Marcus Webb, who's building a real-time analytics
platform at DataFlow. Based on what you've told me about Meridian's
data infrastructure challenges, I think you two would have a lot to
discuss.
Would you be open to an intro? Happy to connect you over email.
Step 2: Introduction email (after both agree)
Subject: Intro — Sarah Chen <> Marcus Webb
Sarah, Marcus — excited to connect you two.
Sarah is the CTO at Meridian Health, building out their healthcare
data pipeline. Marcus is the founder of DataFlow, focused on
real-time analytics infrastructure.
I think there's a natural overlap in the data pipeline space that
would make for a great conversation.
I'll let you two take it from here!
