    Key Elements of a Successful Re-engagement Email

    • Personalization:
      Use the recipient’s name and, if possible, reference their past behavior, purchase history, or preferences.

    • Clear Call to Action:
      Tell recipients exactly what you want them to do (e.g., click a button, complete a survey, visit your site).

    • Compelling Subject Line:
      Grab attention and clearly communicate the intent of the email.

    • Concise, Engaging Content:
      Keep the message focused, benefit-driven, and easy to read.

    • Incentives (Optional):
      Consider including a discount, free shipping, or bonus offer to motivate action.

    • Segmentation:
      Tailor your message to different groups of inactive contacts (e.g., based on product interest or inactivity duration).

    • Testing:
      A/B test subject lines, content, send times, and offers to optimize performance.


    Final Tip

    If contacts do not re-engage after a re-engagement series, consider removing or suppressing them to maintain a healthy sender reputation and comply with inbox provider expectations.
