Email Body
Hi {{first_name}},
Thank you for the conversation today. Here is a quick recap of priorities and agreed next steps.
I can send a detailed plan if you want it in writing.
I can keep this moving without extra overhead by packaging decisions, open questions, and a recommended path in a concise update.
Would you like that update by email, or should we align quickly on a short call?Replace all {{variables}} with your actual information before sending.
