"Hey Sarah, this is Mike from ColdIQ—I know I'm catching you out of the blue.
Mind if I take 30 seconds to tell you why I called? Then you can decide if it's worth continuing.
I work with B2B SaaS companies doing $5-20M who are struggling with inconsistent pipeline.
We just helped a company similar to yours book 40+ qualified meetings per month.
Is pipeline predictability something you're dealing with right now?"

We had a call scheduled for [time]—wanted to make sure everything's okay.
No worries if something came up. Would [alternative time] work better?"
Key: No guilt, assume good intent, offer easy reschedule.
