New Case Study: How XpressConnect Personalizes Outreach to 70,000 Contacts in Pipeline CRM!
From the various sales emails, free trial and demo request emails are the two most important emails you’ll send to prospects.
The email purpose and recipient are different when comparing them with sales email introductions (check out the templates to craft compelling email introductions in this blog). With the free trial and demo request email, your recipients already show some interest in your product. Therefore, these emails aim to strengthen the connection, understand the prospects’ needs, and keep them curious.
To help you achieve those goals, we’ve gathered ten free trial and demo request email templates. Use the templates as they are, or adjust them to describe your products or services better and see your conversion and sales performance growth.
