Hi [Name 1] and [Name 2],
I’m thrilled to introduce you both! You're each doing remarkable work in your space, and I believe there's great potential for synergy here.
[Name 1] is a [brief role + what makes them stand out — e.g., "financial advisor who helps families build legacy plans with clarity and care"]. [Name 2] is a [brief role + highlight — e.g., "real estate expert passionate about helping first-time buyers step into homeownership confidently"].
You’re both connectors and go-getters, and I trust you’ll find value in getting to know one another. I’ll step back from here, but looking forward to hearing about the collaboration!
