Reactivate "Bad Timing" Prospects

Re engage with "Bad Timing" Prospects with automated sequences

Updated this week

Reactivating prospects who previously indicated it "was not the right moment" can be highly effective with the right approach. This sequence helps you re-engage these leads, identify if their priorities have shifted, and potentially reignite the conversation.

Day 1: Email 1 - Introduction

Subject Line:

[First Name], should we pick up the conversation?

Body:

Hi [First Name],

During our last conversation, [problem or discussed topic] seemed to be a priority, but the timing wasn’t right.

Since then, we’ve helped companies like [similar client] achieve [result or benefit]. I’m curious—has your situation changed? Would it make sense to revisit this?

I’d love to reconnect. Here’s a link to schedule a quick call: [Link].

Looking forward to hearing from you,

[Your Name and Signature]

Day 4: Email 2 - Follow-Up

Subject Line:

[First Name], here’s how we helped [existing client]

Body:

Hi [First Name],

I wanted to share a recent example: [Existing Client] used our solution to [key result or benefit]. It helped them achieve [transformation or impact].

If your priorities have shifted and this might be relevant now, I’m happy to discuss.

Here’s a link to schedule a short call: [Link].

Let me know if you’d prefer to receive more details by email instead.

Looking forward to connecting,

[Your Name and Signature]

Day 7: Email 3 - Break-Up

Subject Line:

A quick note before closing the loop

Body:

Hi [First Name],

Since I haven’t heard back, I’ll assume it’s still not the right time for you. If your priorities change, I’d be happy to pick up the conversation again.

In the meantime, here’s a resource you might find helpful for [topic or key problem]: [Link].

Thanks again for your time, and I hope to connect in the future.

Best regards,

[Your Name and Signature]


Why This Sequence Works

  • Personalized Outreach: Each email references past conversations or shared challenges, making the messaging relevant and tailored.

  • Value-Oriented Content: Sharing success stories and resources ensures the prospect gains value, even if they don’t engage immediately.

  • Respectful Timing: A clear break-up email shows professionalism while leaving the door open for future conversations.

Use this sequence to effectively re-engage your "Bad Timing" prospects and turn them into active opportunities! 🚀
