Email 1: Cold Outreach — Independent Cafe / Deli
Hi [Name],
I'm Barry from ProKulture — we brew certified organic kombucha in Sallins, Co. Kildare. You might have seen us in Aldi.
I'm reaching out because [Venue Name] looks like exactly the kind of place our product fits — [reference something specific: their healthy menu, their drinks range, their location, etc.].
Quick facts:
- 4 flavours, 330ml bottles, ambient shelf-stable (no fridge needed)
- Less than 3g sugar / 100ml, 12 calories per 100ml
- Great Taste 2023 + Blas na hEireann winner
- Wholesale: €1.88/bottle, 30%+ retailer margin at €3.29 RRP
We're doing a first-order deal for new stockists: 5 cases + 1 free case, with counter POS included.
Would you be open to me dropping off a sample case to try? No obligation. Just want to get the product in your hands.
Happy to call or pop in — whatever's easiest.
Cheers,
Barry Flanagan

Email 2: Cold Outreach — Hotel / Restaurant
Hi [Name],
I'm Barry from ProKulture. We produce Ireland's only certified organic kombucha — four flavours, 330ml bottles, brewed in Co. Kildare.
I'm writing because I think ProKulture would work well on your drinks menu at [Hotel/Restaurant Name]. Here's why hotels and restaurants are picking us up:
- 60% GP at a €4.50 menu price (€1.80 cost to you)
- Three-way serve: standalone drink, cocktail/mocktail mixer, or food pairing
- Ambient shelf-stable — no fridge space needed until opened, 12-month shelf life
- Non-alcoholic option that isn't boring — fills the gap between water and wine
- Certified organic, award-winning — Great Taste 2023, Blas na hEireann
We're offering a launch package for new on-trade accounts: 10 cases + 2 free, plus a staff tasting session where I walk your team through the range and serve suggestions.
I'd love to drop off samples and a sell sheet. Would [day] work for a quick 10-minute visit?
Best,
Barry Flanagan

Email 4: Cold Outreach — Gym / Yoga Studio
Hi [Name],
I'm Barry from ProKulture — we make organic kombucha in Kildare. Less than 3g sugar, 12 calories per 100ml, certified organic.
I was thinking about [Studio Name] and wondering if you'd be interested in stocking ProKulture for your members — particularly as a post-class option at reception.
Here's what makes it work for fitness venues:
- Low sugar, low calorie — guilt-free post-workout
- Ambient shelf-stable — sit on a counter or in a cooler, no fridge needed
- Premium price point — your members won't blink at €3.50 for an organic drink
- Strong margin — €1.80 cost, €3.50+ sell = 48%+ margin
- Instagram-worthy — members photograph what they drink after class
We have a gym/studio starter: 3 cases + 6 bonus bottles, with an A4 "Post-Class Kombucha" poster.
Want me to drop off a taster case? No commitment — just want to see if your members like it.
Cheers,
Barry

Email 5: Follow-Up (3 Days After Sample Drop)
Hi [Name],
Quick one — I dropped off ProKulture samples earlier this week. Did you get a chance to try them?
Keen to hear what you thought. If you'd like to place a first order, we can have stock with you within 3-5 days. The first-order deal (5 cases + 1 free) is still available.
No pressure either way — just wanted to check in.
Cheers,

Email 6: Follow-Up (1 Week, No Response)
Hi [Name],
Just following up on the kombucha samples. I know you're busy — no offence taken if the timing isn't right.
If you're interested in stocking, I can send over a one-page sell sheet with all the pricing and margin info. Or I'm happy to pop back in at a time that suits.
Either way, I appreciate you taking the time to try the product.

I'll check in next week to see how it's going. If you need anything before then — more stock, photos for your social, whatever — just WhatsApp me on 087 XXX XXXX.
Thanks for backing ProKulture.
