🔸Yes, no problem. I can schedule a demo for you. What time and day are you available?

🔸Can we schedule a quick call to discuss your requirements and how our product can help solve your needs best?

🔸Hi [client’s name]! I can see that you requested a demo for [product] on [date]. What is your availability on [date]?
