First Outreach Email Template to Professors who HAVEN’T used QMI before
Subject Line: Try using Cornell DTI’s Queue Me In to streamline office hours this semester!
Dear Professor [name],
Hello! My name is [your name] ([graduating year]), and I am the [product manager / technical product manager] of Queue Me In for this upcoming [fall/spring] semester. Queue Me In is built by Cornell DTI and is used by several IS/CS/ECE classes here at Cornell, including CS 1110, CS 2110, CS 3410, and INFO 4300, to name a few. We were wondering if you would like us to set up a Queue Me In office hours course for [course number] this semester to help manage and streamline office hours. If you have any questions about Queue Me In, we're happy to provide more information as well! Attached is a pitch of our work so that you can review if this is something you’d like to use this semester.
Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Sincerely,
