Subject: Request for Support on Tablet Rollout
Hi A. Sunnad,
I hope this email finds you well.
I'm writing to you today to ask for your support on a matter related to the tablet rollout project.
As you know, Omar has requested that we expand the rollout to include all dining sections, not
just the bar.
I've been giving this request some thought, and I'm concerned that expanding the rollout at this
time would be unwise. Here are a few reasons why:



The bar area is the most likely area to see a positive return on investment from the tablets.
Expanding the rollout to other dining sections would require additional resources, which
we may not have available.
There is a risk that expanding the rollout too quickly could lead to problems with the
tablets, such as technical glitches or user errors.
I believe that it's in the best interests of the project to stick with the original plan and limit the
rollout to the bar area for now. I would be grateful for your help in convincing Omar and Deanna
of this.
I know that you're involved in the project, and I appreciate your insights and expertise. I believe
that we can work together to convince Omar and Deanna that expanding the rollout is not the
best course of action at this time.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely, [Your Name]
In this email, I have established my credibility by stating my role in the project and my
experience with tablet rollouts. I have framed for common ground by acknowledging Omar's
request and stating that I understand his concerns. I have provided evidence by citing the reasons
why I believe that expanding the rollout would be unwise. Finally, I have connected emotionally
by asking for my potential supporter's help and expressing my gratitude for their insights and
expertise.
I believe that this email is effective in persuading my potential supporter to join my coalition. I
have addressed their concerns, provided them with evidence, and asked for their help in a way
that is both professional and respectful. I am confident that they will be willing to support my
efforts to keep the tablet rollout confined to the bar area.
