What great win-back emails do

Win-back emails target customers or users who have gone quiet: no purchase, login or open in a while. They try to reactivate them before they are gone for good.

  1. 1

    Acknowledge the gap

    "It has been a while" is honest and gets attention. Pretending nothing changed feels automated.

  2. 2

    Show what is new

    New products, features or content give a lapsed customer a fresh reason to look again.

  3. 3

    Make an offer worth it

    Win-backs are where discounts and free shipping earn their keep.

  4. 4

    Let them go gracefully

    A final email offering to stop sending protects deliverability and sometimes wins people back on its own.
