    Joining the {{company}} supplier list

    Hi {{first_name}}, We're a precision machining shop with five-axis capability and ISO 9001 certification, making small and medium batches of aluminium and steel parts. What's the process for being considered as a supplier at {{company}}? I'm happy to fill in a supplier questionnaire or quote a sample part. {{sender_first_name}}

{{first_name}} and similar are filled from each lead; after a “|” is the text used when the field is empty. Written for a precision machining shop writing to procurement managers.

When to use it
