Subject

episode idea for {{podcast_name}}

Hi {{firstName | there}},

I enjoyed your episode on {{recent_episode_topic}}, especially [a specific point].

An idea for a future episode: "{{episode_title}}". [guest's name] has [your credential], and could walk your listeners through [three takeaways].

Want me to send a short outline?

Hi {{firstName | there}}, here's that outline in three lines, in case it's easier to judge: [a short outline]. Happy to adapt it to what your audience is asking about.

How to use this template

Replace every [bracketed] part with something true about you or the person you're writing to.
Give every {{field}} beyond the standard ones (first name, company) its own column in your lead list, or a fallback after a bar. In mailzy, a lead whose field is empty and has no fallback waits instead of going out with a gap.
Send the follow-ups as replies in the same thread. We wait 3, 5 and 7 days between them.
Check how it reads for real leads with the merge tag preview, and send it to yourself first.
Test it on a few hundred people in one niche and judge it by replies, not opens.
