Example output

smart_toySample response
Follow-up Email (After Initial Investor Meeting). Subject: One thing from our conversation I should have mentioned. Hi [Investor name], I've been reflecting on our conversation Thursday about unit economics—thanks for pushing back on our CAC assumptions. You were right that our current cohort isn't representative of enterprise customers we're now seeing. I dug into our newest cohort (customers onboarded in March) and the CAC is actually 35% lower than what I presented, which gets us to 10-month payback vs. 15 months. Attached is the updated deck with the corrected cohort analysis. Two things I'd like your perspective on: (1) Am I thinking about this customer cohort comparison correctly? (2) Does this change your initial thinking on the opportunity? I'm in SF the week of [dates] if you wanted to grab 30 minutes to dig deeper. Best, [Name]
