MD RESPONDED TO COLD EMAIL

Hi All,

I cold called an MD for an informational interview and he responded to me. He said "sure, let's try the week after next". Is this an appropriate response: Hi abc,

Thank you for getting back to me, and that sounds great! I will reach out again next week to confirm a time and date that works well for you.

Best,

xyz

Please any help would be greatly greatly appreciated

Should probably initiate some type of scheduling now. Set a placeholder time or something maybe. He can change the time next week if he needs but may not want to go back and forth again

 

+1 this. Always ask for 15-20 minutes at x, y, or zpm EST on _day, _day, or _day.

Of course, change the time zone to wherever they are located, NYC time (EST) is a safe bet for US.
