Overview

Most deals stall in the gap between a good meeting and a written next step. Reps lose momentum when the recap goes out late, the proposal has no date, or the chaser only says just checking in. This template gives account executives tested emails and a timed plan for each step: the recap, the proposal, the chasers and the close-out, so that each email asks one clear question.

The sample follows a distribution sales rep at Hartwell Distribution through a recap, a proposal for 120 pallets a week and a timed chaser plan. All names, prices, dates and figures are fictional. Replace the sender, the value line and the timings with your own, and delete any step your team does not run.

Useful for

  • A rep sending a recap the same afternoon as a discovery call, while the details are fresh
  • An account executive chasing a proposal that has been open for three weeks without a reply
  • A sales manager reviewing the follow-up sequence before the team starts a new campaign

What's included

  • Recap email: an answer-first recap with figures, four numbered tips and the sender
  • Proposal email: a framed email with placeholders, a subject line and three notes
  • Chasers: a dated checklist with owners and a four-week plan of each chaser
  • Closing the loop: a checklist for won and lost deals, and an action table by impact
  • Make it yours: numbered steps for replacing the sender, timings and opt-out line

Questions

Are the company, people and figures fictional?

Yes. Hartwell Distribution, Jordan Ellis, the buyers, the prices and every figure in this sample are fictional. Replace them with your own details before any email goes to a real buyer.

Can I send these emails without changing them?

No. Each email is a starting point. Change the opening line to reference something real about the buyer, and check that every name, date and figure is correct before you press send.

How many follow-ups is too many?

Seven touches over 14 to 21 days is a reasonable sequence for a warm lead. Stop when the buyer has said no or gone silent after the break-up email, and record the reason in the CRM.
