Email Body

Hi {{firstName}},

I saw you just checked our pricing — perfect timing! Most industrial machinery Plant Managers we work with struggle with:

1. **Unplanned downtime** → Each hour costs $150K-$300K because maintenance gets alerts too late
2. **Equipment visibility gaps** → 40% of machines have zero real-time monitoring, causing blind-spot failures
3. **Maintenance cost overruns** → Reactive repairs cost 3-4x more than planned maintenance

We helped Caterpillar's assembly plant cut unplanned downtime from 18 hours/month to 3 hours and reduce maintenance costs by $240K/year.

Can I show you a quick 15-minute walkthrough of how we solve these for industrial machinery?
