Second Follow-Up (Still No Response)

The second touch after silence. Changes the angle instead of repeating the ask — offers to answer the unasked question and gives an easy out, which paradoxically increases replies.

Hi [First Name],

I've asked about [original topic] a couple of times, so let me ask something more useful instead:

Is the silence because the timing changed, or because something in what I sent didn't land? Both are completely fine — I'd just rather adjust than keep guessing.

If it's simply not a priority right now, say the word and I'll check back in [timeframe — e.g., "a quarter"] instead.

Best, [Your Name]

Writing a fresh angle for every silent prospect is the part that doesn't scale. FollowClose drafts all five touches from the original call, each with its own angle.
