Most list owners don't put nearly enough effort into winning back inactive subscribers.
Plenty don't have a re-engagement sequence at all.
And those that do often settle for a basic 3-part sequence that says something like, 'Hey, are you still interested in being on my list? If not, I will remove you soon.'
It's a shame because this approach is almost guaranteed to have a low conversion rate.
And depending on your list and offer, just a 1% increase in conversions could mean thousands or tens of thousands of dollars in extra revenue per year.
Re-engaging inactive subscribers is also WAY cheaper than acquiring new ones.
So, this is basically free money.
That's why I recommend you not to look at re-engaging inactive subscribers as an afterthought.
But to look at it as a priority.
In fact, I want you to go further than that.
Get into the mindset of a person who just got broken up with because they cheated but still wants to win their ex back.
That way, you'll go above and beyond to win back your subscribers.
Here's the thing: a high-converting re-engagement series can have anywhere up to 10 emails.
And it uses as many psychological triggers as possible, such as:
-Reminding them of why they signed up in the first place (their big goal) -Restating the benefits of being on your list -Bribing them with a free gift -Urgency -Pattern breaks -FOMO
And the list goes on.
So if your re-engagement sequence is getting a low-conversion rate...
Send me a PM.
I'd be happy to give you some tips on how to improve it.

If you want to sell your product or service at a high(er) price point..
There’s a very simple way to create a sense of exclusivity that doesn’t involve changing anything other than your messaging.
What you do need, however, is a solid understanding of your ideal customer.
You need to know:
-What their perceived identity is -Who they want to become -And what character traits the ideal version of themselves possess
Because this allows you to position your product or service as a way for them to achieve their desired identity and embody the traits they aspire to possess.
The best example of this concept is the famous Apple quote:
"Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes…
The ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules…
You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things…
They push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do."
This quote emphasizes unconventional thinking and celebrates those who challenge the status quo.
And it positions Apple as a brand for creative individuals who are daring and innovative.
You can also use a negative approach by highlighting what type of person your product is NOT FOR.
Here’s a simple example: "This is not for those who avoid risks and are satisfied with the status quo."
Another example would be: “This opportunity is not for those who hesitate to lead, who scoff at the first sign of challenge, or who are content simply following others' paths to moderate success.
Or: “This is not for the wannabe entrepreneurs who dream small or prefer the sideline to the spotlight.
It's not for the person who waits for opportunities instead of creating them."
You get the point.
By doing this, you position your product or service as a way for your ideal customer to achieve their desired identity.
And that’s powerful.
This tactic can give even low-cost, commodity products a sense of exclusivity.
If you have a high-ticket product, you can also take this approach one step further.
How?
By actively denying people from buying the product who fail to meet your requirements.
Because if, unlike most companies, you’re selective and choosing principles over money that must mean two things:
-You don’t really need the money. -You must have a great product.
And this obviously elevates the status of whatever you’re selling.
