Thank you for the introduction
Email Body
Hi {{first_name}},
Thank you again for introducing me to {{introduced_person}}.
The conversation was valuable, and I wanted to share a quick appreciation update.
If you are open, I can share a short agenda in advance so the conversation stays focused and useful for both of us.
I am glad to keep this low-lift and focused on practical value rather than a broad, open-ended meeting.
If you would like, I can send a proposed outline and two time options.Replace all {{variables}} with your actual information before sending.
