What metric should I mention to a Marketing Procurement Officer?

Lead with CAC, pipeline contribution, and paid-to-organic mix. That's the language this buyer already reports. If you can't connect your email to attribution arguments, creative fatigue, and a stack of tools that don't share data, you're asking them to do the translation work. They won't.

How long should I ask for in a first meeting?

Fifteen to twenty minutes. Thirty is easier for you and harder for them. If the first conversation earns it, you can ask for a longer working session later. Starting small gets more yeses. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

How do I follow up with procurement without getting frozen out?

Match their process. Send the documents they asked for, labeled clearly. Ask what is still missing. Don't try to charm your way past a required form. Procurement replies to completeness, not personality. Name the stall they care about, offer one small next step, and stop before the thread feels like a sequence.

What subject line works for Marketing meeting request emails (after a proposal)?

Name the situation and the business object, not your excitement. Something like "[Company Name] / CAC" outperforms "Just checking in" because a procurement officer can decide from the preview text whether it's worth opening. Keep it under 50 characters when you can.

How many times should I follow up with a Procurement Officer (after a proposal)?

If they agreed in principle, send times the same day while intent is warm. On the review date you set. If you didn't set one, five business days. After that, send a breakup note and archive it. A procurement officer who wants it will answer a clean close more often than a fifth bump.
