Follow-up cadence
Silence isn’t a verdict; it’s a busy calendar.
- Nudge #1 (after 3–5 business days): short bump, include original below.
- Nudge #2 (after 7–10 more days): “Totally fine to pass — leaving this with you. If helpful later, here’s a 2‑line summary of what I’m asking.”
- Close the loop: if you get help, send an outcome note (“Got the interview — thanks again!”). It’s memorable.

Hi Taylor — friendly nudge on my note below. If now’s not ideal, I’ll circle back next month. Thanks either way!
