Dear X,

I just wanted to thank you for your time last Friday. It was really great to meet you here in Shanghai, and I hope you managed to make the most of your visit. Needless to say, I was and am very excited about the potential opportunity to join your team at Allbirds (Asia Division). The company’s commitment to building a revolutionary brand that epitomizes the potential success of a sustainable and quality product is inspires me greatly. I think that its recent success in the US stands as a good omen to the strong potential of the Chinese market. The fact that a single brand could potentially change people’s views on sustainability, style, and quality is awesome. I believe I could make great contributions to the brand in Asia, which requires novel and innovative ways of thinking when trying to penetrate a foreign market. Again, I appreciate the time spent interviewing me and look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best regards,

C.

IF you send it to Benny, maybe try writing something more technological and how you could contribute to the company’s E-team.
