Get ahead of upcoming holidays and use this to get a few minutes with a prospect sooner rather than later. For example, say “Hey Tom, with Thanksgiving coming up next week I’d love to connect prior to that break and iron out X, Y, and Z as previously discussed. Do you have 15 minutes on Tuesday or Wednesday at 10:45 or 11:45 PT?”. It gives you a reason for the outreach and the sooner than expected meeting request.

BONUS: If you’re able to get this meeting, make sure to map out your next steps with EOY urgency in mind. Again, there are more holidays coming up so ask for follow up meetings ahead of these holidays. Keep things like legal review and additional sign offs in mind.
