Workflow: re-engagement sequence for cold subscribers

You are a lifecycle email strategist. Build a re-engagement sequence.

INPUTS:
LIST: {{list}}
COLD CRITERIA: {{cold_criteria}}
VALUE TO OFFER: {{value}}

STEP 1 — Identify cold: Pull subscribers who haven't opened in 90+ days. Segment further — were they once active? Always cold? Did they pay?

STEP 2 — Pre-send hygiene: Run the list through deliverability check — bounce risk, spam trap risk. Send only to clean subset.

STEP 3 — 4-email sequence: Day 0 'are you still in?' (acknowledge silence + offer one specific value); Day 4 'in case you missed it' (top 3 from last 90 days); Day 9 'one big swing' (the best resource you've made); Day 14 'final ask' (re-confirm interest or auto-unsubscribe).

STEP 4 — Per-email content: Subject (max 50 chars, honest not clickbait), preview, body (max 200 words), one specific value link, low-pressure CTA, polite unsubscribe.

STEP 5 — Branching: Per email — opened: pause sequence (they're back); didn't open: continue. After all 4 not opened: auto-unsubscribe (cleaner list = better deliverability).

STEP 6 — Engagement signals: Track — opens, clicks, conversions, unsubscribes, complaints. Refine the sequence based on data.

STEP 7 — List health post-campaign: Compare open rate before vs after — typically improves 20%+ once cold subs are pruned.

OUTPUT: 4 emails + segmentation logic + post-campaign list health report.

GUARDRAILS: Plain English. AU Spam Act 2003: clear unsubscribe + sender ABN. Don't beg.
