Re-Engagement Message

I received this email from Inbound.org recently.

The ‘manage your preferences’ suggests this is a mass email.  

However it’s short enough, direct enough, and specific enough to motivate replies.

This is a very simple re-engagement message. Most re-engagement efforts go wrong. They begin with messages such as:

“Come back, we’ve been missing you!”

“Here’s what you’ve missed”

“Return to our community and get access to {x}”

These messages prime people with negative views of the group. They remind people they decided not to participate.

The best way to re-engage someone is simply to pretend they never left.
