=== CONTEXT ===
Prospect: {{PROSPECT_NAME}} — {{TITLE}} at {{COMPANY}}
Previous Outreach Summary: {{PREVIOUS_EMAILS}} (what angles I tried before)
Time Since Last Email: {{TIME_GAP}}
Something New Since Then: {{WHAT_CHANGED}} (a new feature, a new customer, a new data point, a trigger event)
=== REQUIREMENTS ===
- Do NOT mention that you emailed them before
- Do NOT apologize for "bothering" them
- Do NOT use "circling back" or "just following up"
- The email must feel like a fresh, standalone message
- Lead with WHAT CHANGED — the new information is the entire reason to reach out
=== STRUCTURE ===
1. **Subject line:** 4-6 words referencing the new thing
2. **Line 1:** Drop the new insight/change like you're telling a friend something cool
3. **Line 2:** Connect it to why it matters for their specific situation
4. **Line 3:** One-sentence proof (customer, number, benchmark)
5. **Line 4:** CTA asking for a low-friction reaction (opinion, yes/no question, 15-min chat)
=== OUTPUT ===
1. The resurrection email
2. A different version that pretends this is an inbound referral
3. A "last-ditch" ultra-short version (under 40 words)
4. A note on the optimal send time and day
