Subject: [Mutual Connection] mentioned you

Hi [First Name],

Hope you're well! [Mutual Connection] mentioned you're dealing with [Challenge] at [Company] and thought we should connect.

[Mutual Connection] knows we helped [Their Company] solve a similar issue last year. They suggested you might benefit from the same approach.

Without going into details here, the short version: [Client] was struggling with [Challenge] and we helped them achieve [Result] in [Timeframe].

[Mutual Connection] thought it might be relevant for [Company]'s situation.

Worth a quick conversation to see if there's a fit?

Best,
[Your Name]

P.S. [Mutual Connection] said to mention [Personal Detail/Inside Reference] - apparently you'll know what that means!
