Running it, start to finish
- Identify which stage you are at.
- Add something new rather than restating interest.
- Stop after two unanswered follow-ups.
What you get back
The output this produces, every time.
- Adds something new in every message, which is what distinguishes a follow-up from a chase.
- Handles the competing-offer message, which frequently accelerates a stalled decision.
- Includes the post-rejection note, which is rarely sent and does lead to later hires.
Getting better results
Where this usually goes wrong, and how to avoid it.
- Never send a pure check-in. A message whose only content is asking again invites no reply and uses up your one follow-up.
- Use a real competing offer. It genuinely moves decisions. Inventing one is transparent and ends the process badly if discovered.
- Send the rejection reply. It takes two minutes, is almost never done, and a meaningful number of people are hired from it months later.
