Hi {{FIRST NAME}},
I know change is never easy, but it’s one thing we know will never go away. I noticed that
there was some turnover recently at {{CUSTOMER COMPANY}}, and I wanted to make sure
that the person who takes over managing {{YOUR PRODUCT NAME}} is using it to {{YOUR
COMPANY MISSION OR THEIR BUSINESS GOAL}}.
I’d love to understand more about the change taking place, and learn how I can best
support the team during this transition. I have some time available next week. Can we
book 15 minutes to get aligned?
Here is my calendar: {{CALENDER URL}}
Thanks,
{{YOUR NAME}}
Pro Tip: Always present your meetings as investments and value adds. When your customers are going
through changes, this is a great chance to position yourself as the strategic partner on their journey.

The team has been working towards the north star of helping your team achieve {{KEY
BUSINESS OBJECTIVES}}. Is this still your focus as the new leader? I’d love to schedule a

to achieve these goals. I’ve gone ahead and put some time on your calendar next week,

Pro Tip #1: A new role is a great chance to send a gift to your customer. It can start the relationship on a
warmer note, especially if you’ve done research on their interests.
Pro Tip #2: Sending a calendar invite can make the back and forth of scheduling easier. Chances are, they
might have that window open and accept. If not, they’ll decline and share some other times or you can
follow up to see when would be a good time to connect.
Pro Tip #3: Sometimes in the hecticness of starting a new role, you may need more than one email touch.
