Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What is a sales follow-up email template and which ones are included?

Ask any sales rep and they’ll tell you the importance of following up. But we’re not just talking about thank-you notes and birthday wishes. Our sales follow-up email template gives you the email script, rationale, data, and even cadence for two primary categories of sales follow-up emails: 

  • Cold outreach emails: A full prospecting cadence that shows you how to follow-up to cold outreach emails in a way that gets prospects to open and read.
  • In-deal follow-up emails: From pre- and post-meeting to prospecting follow-up, we cover the common in-deal scenarios in which a good sales follow-up email can be the difference between renewed momentum and the line going cold.
Who is the follow-up email template for?

While we wrote this template with sales reps and their managers in mind, we’ve found that any customer-facing professional can benefit from these tips. In fact, more than a few of our friends in customer success have been known to borrow a few techniques from this template for their own follow-up emails.

What makes for a good sales follow-up email?

It depends on the situation, but a good sales follow-up email tends to: 

  • Keep it simple and specific
  • Use words that sell 
  • Leverage “interest” CTAs
  • Tell stories and be informative
  • Use social proof correctly
  • Personalize every detail to the prospect’s pain points
Is there anything else included in the download?

Each copy/paste template is accompanied by an explanation of each part. If we’re telling you to include a stat or insight in the subject line, we’re also telling you why that approach works, as well as providing some examples. Each key part, play, or technique in the template is color coded to match its corresponding rationale—that way, you can easily skim for the context you need.

Beyond the template and scripts themselves, you’ll find some powerful data points to keep in mind. For example, did you know that response rates steadily decrease after the first interaction? Or that specific CTAs outperform every other type of CTA? We don’t just show you what goes into a good sales follow-up email template—we bring the receipts.
