  1. Email 1 · day 1

    A view on annual plans

    Hi {{first_name}}, A view I hold after years of pricing work: most software companies give away more on annual plans than they need to, because the annual reduction was set once in the early days and never tested. I might be wrong about {{company}}. When did you last test yours? {{sender_first_name}}

  2. Email 2 · day 6 (5 days after the previous one, if there’s no reply)

    Re: A view on annual plans

    Hi {{first_name}}, If it's useful, I can describe a simple way to test it with new customers only, without touching existing contracts. {{sender_first_name}}

{{first_name}} and similar are filled from each lead; after a “|” is the text used when the field is empty. Written for a pricing consultant writing to leaders of software companies.

When to use it

When you have a clear, defensible opinion your buyers will find interesting, even if they disagree.

Why it works

  • A point of view shows expertise more convincingly than a list of services.
  • Inviting disagreement starts a real conversation.
  • It's useful even without a reply.

How to adapt it

  • Write your own opinion, in two or three sentences. It should be specific enough that some readers disagree.
