THE RE-ENGAGEMENT EMAILGoal: re-engage inactive or lost accounts by highlighting prominent developments at your business

● Leads in your database that have gone cold● Sales people aren’t working them (closed lost bucket)● Need to boost your meetings number.● Let’s reach out to people in the past that haven’t converted ● Have anything new to share?● In a human and conversational way

● Emphasize the “then vs now”. You didn’t buy then, but here’s why you should now

● Stick to the highlights. Offer 3 major recent developments that would make a Closed Lost prospect reconsider your product/service

● Finish with an offer to continue the conversation

@DRIFT

REPLY TO RSVPGoal: Create a compelling event invitation that prompts an immediate and enthusiastic RSVP reply

● Instead of a CTA make it a simple reply. Yes or No● Works well as a forward of a previous standard invite● Keep the email short. Make it easy for a person to say yes.● Add why they should attend and what they’ll get from attending
