The only problem is that “some time” is very broad. It could refer to a few hours, a few days, or even longer. Some people don’t like waiting around for “some time.”

I Will Be In Touch

“I will be in touch” is a simple way to show that we’ll respond to someone when we have more information. “In touch” is a communicative phrase we use to show that there will be future updates. As soon as we have them, we will provide them to whoever needs them.

You Can Expect To Hear From Me Soon

“You can expect to hear from me soon” is great because it shows that you’re planning on giving more information. Rather than relying on the other person to contact you, you can use this to show that you will be the one starting communications when you know more.

You can expect to hear from me soon, and I won’t let you down. We’ll figure this out together.

Check With Me Again Tomorrow

“Check with me again tomorrow” allows someone to ask you another question the next day. We can replace “tomorrow” with any day when we think we’ll have a clearer idea.

The only issue with this phrase is that it means they will expect an answer from you. Of course, if you haven’t managed to come up with an answer in the timeframe, they will be disappointed.
