Subject: Lavender Size: Are you outsourcing?
Hey Will,
I came across Lavender from our work helping teams in healthcare & insurance with sales automation. Can’t lie… I was a bit surprised.
Given the quality of your extension, I thought your team would be much larger.
Is the team outsourcing some of that work today? If not, we can help offload some projects that might bottleneck your progress.
Follow up with a thoughtful bump:
