Feedback requested: Email to find level of interest from potential customers

I would love some feedback on this email I'm about to send to a list of email addresses I've mined from various websites. They are all figure skating coaches, which is who my Sk8 Plan product is for. Thanks!!!

BTW, I actually already have the mockups mentioned in the email; finished them yesterday. I just wanted to try to tease with that to see if enough people even care.

----------------------------------------------------------------

Here's a quick update on what I've been up to with Sk8 Plan since we last talked:

  • I've interviewed dozens of skate coaches, and confirmed that plenty of you would like better tools to run your coaching business.

  • The first tool I want to tackle is helping you manage lesson schedules. We need to start with the basics of scheduling because it is the one thing all coaches are spending too much time on outside of your lessons.

  • Not all coaches work the same way, so I have poured over my notes and to find commonalities in order to design a solution that might work for at least the majority.

If you would like a sneak peek at some early mockups of that solution, just send me a quick reply. I will have them ready this week.

Thanks again for your assistance, and I hope together we can create something that makes for happier coaches and gives them an extra few hours of time back each week.

Cheers,

David Frahm

    Hey @DavidFrahm, Is this a follow up email? Or is it a brand new first time reaching out email?

    The email to review looks like you've already started a conversation, as in they have replied to your previous emails. If so, your email goes into a lot of depth of the process you're on. I want them to reply

    If this is the first email you're sending out to potential customers, I would make it much, much shorter. Keep it focused on how you've identified this problem by speaking to their peers and you'd like to know if they're interested seeing how you can help solve this problem. They won't be as concerned with how you are working with coaches but with how well you describe the headache of managing lesson schedules.
