Re engage with "Bad Timing" Prospects with automated sequences

Updated over 2 months ago

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]
