Re: Stalled Trial at {{companyName}} - new developments
{{firstName}},

I noticed we haven't connected in a while since our stalled trial discussion. I wanted to share some relevant updates.

We recently worked with Toyota on Multi-site deployment complexity, and they achieved measurable results within the first quarter. Given the challenges in Automotive sales teams face, I thought this might be worth exploring.

Are you open to a quick sync this week?

Thanks,
