Should I include a recording in the demo follow-up?

If you recorded it and they agreed, yes, plus timestamps for the two parts they cared about. A raw 40-minute link with no map is homework. Add the three bullets they'd need to brief a colleague.

One context line and one question is plenty. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

What should I never say in a Agriculture follow-up?

When should I email agricultural buyers?

How should a follow-up to a Agriculture Operations Manager change for after a demo?

Helpful and specific to what they clicked and asked. If you don't understand seasonality, you'll email during harvest and wonder why nobody replies. Respect the calendar. The operations manager is guarding throughput, SLAs, and the team's Saturday, so the ask should stay at "a working session on one process, with an agenda." If you copy a generic template and only

Hi [First Name],

Wanted to reconnect while [topic] is still fresh.

In Agriculture, that usually shows up as vendors who show up during harvest and disappear after the check clears. If the timing is off, that's useful to know too. I can pause and come back when [trigger event] hits.

Answer the real objection and make internal forwarding easy.
