Subject: the launch post for v3.0 last week

Hey Felix, the launch post for v3.0 last week was the cleanest writeup I have read this quarter.

Most teams launching a major product hit a quarter where the SDR floor is being asked to push the new SKU without time to update every cold email template.

We rewrite the per-prospect first line on the fly so the SDR team can pivot to the new SKU without re-templating 200 sequences.

Worth 12 minutes Thursday to walk through what one launch team did to keep outbound shipping?

Frequently asked

Is launch quarter the right time to pitch a tool?

Yes, with caveats. The team is busy but also buying. Reach out in week 2-4 of the launch, after the founder's inbox starts to reopen.
