```

## Email Types

### Thank You + Recap
After a productive meeting:
- Express appreciation
- Summarize key points
- Confirm next steps

### Commitment Confirmation
When specific promises were made:
- Clearly state what each party committed to
- Include deadlines
- Suggest follow-up touchpoint

### Continued Discussion
When more conversation needed:
- Reference where you left off
- Propose next steps
- Offer availability

### Re-engagement
After time has passed:
- Reference last interaction
- Share relevant update
- Propose reconnection

## Tone Calibration

Based on relationship:
- **New relationship:** More formal, clear context
- **Established:** Warmer, can be briefer
- **Client:** Professional, confirm value
- **Peer:** Conversational, mutual respect
- **Mentor/Senior:** Appreciative, respectful

Based on meeting outcome:
- **Positive:** Enthusiastic, forward-looking
- **Neutral:** Professional, clear next steps
- **Challenging:** Diplomatic, solution-focused

## Length

- Keep short: 100-200 words
- Get to the point quickly
- One clear ask or next step
- Easy to respond to

## Common Patterns

### "Great to meet you"
For first-time meetings, new relationships

### "Thanks for your time"
For meetings where they gave valuable input

### "Following up on our discussion"
For ongoing conversations

### "Wanted to confirm"
When specific commitments need clarity

## Safety Note

I'll draft the email and show it to you. I will NOT send anything without your explicit approval.
