The 2-Step SMS Combo To Revive Old Leads

June 12, 20244 min read

Unlocking the potential of aged leads is an art form in today’s sales and marketing landscape.

With our two-step SMS strategy, old leads aren’t just revisited; they’re re-engaged and transformed into ready-to-buy prospects.

Dive into our approach to reactivating leads and explore our AI-SMS CRM reactivation service at Retention Dude.

Introduction

Hello, everyone! It's Dee from Retention Dude. Today, we're uncovering the secrets of our two-step SMS strategy that breathes new life into aged and dormant leads. Often considered unsaleable, these leads can be a goldmine when approached with the right tools – with AI, and the right angle - with SMS.

Understanding the Two-Step SMS Strategy

Step 1:

The Door Opener:

Our first SMS is crafted to re-establish contact in a personal and non-intrusive way. It typically reads:

“It’s [ANDROID NAME] from [COMPANY NAME] here. Is this the same [CONTACT NAME] that got a [PRODUCT] quote from us in [MONTH]?”

So for an example contact named Grover:

ANDROID NAME - Jessie. Name of android, can also be name of salesperson who will handle the followup call.

COMPANY NAME - FinalExpense4U. Name of company this SMS is being sent for.

NAME - Grover. This is a dynamic field which pulls the name of the prospect in from your CRM..

PRODUCT - Final Expense Insurance. This is the product/service this lead has previously opted in for.

MONTH - July. This is the actual month they opted in/received a quote. .

The SMS Grover would receive is:

“It’s Jessie from FinalExpense4U here. Is this the same Grover that got a Final Expense Insurance quote from us in July?”

This message is designed to jog the recipient’s memory and open the door for further communication.

Step 2: The Follow-Up:

Sent only when a positive reply is detected by AI, the second SMS aims to preframe the conversation for the sales team.

It says,

"Thank goodness! I had a reminder to give you a call but didn’t want to disturb you without checking first. Are you still looking?"

This message sets the stage for a more detailed interaction.

Why This Combo is Effective

SMS As A Fresh Contact Channel

SMS offers a more personal and direct line of communication compared to phone calls. It feels less intrusive and more conversational, which is key in re-establishing a connection with aged leads. Typically sales teams heavily dial newly opted in leads, so SMS acts a less saturated channel.

Human-Like Interaction

This combo is designed to be as human as possible and engage in a natural manner. Prospects are FED UP with getting bombarded with SMS and email that forces an offer down their throat.

So SMS 1 acts as a hand raiser inviting a simple yes or no response. SMS 2 preframes, by subtly prepares the lead for a follow-up call once the android has booked them in.

The aim is not to sell, sell, sell. But to start a sales oriented conversation.

And within two messages, this combo has re-qualified the prospect, determining whether they still maintain an interest.

*Note:

Of course, this SMS can be played with and edited to suit your business/needs. But the purpose of each SMS remains the same.

SMS 1 = The Door Opener

SMS 2 = The Preframe

Addressing Non-Responses and Engagement

The Role of Bump Messages

If there’s no reply or engagement wanes, our system automatically sends ‘bump’ messages. These messages vary depending on whether the lead has engaged at all or stopped interacting after initial engagement, ensuring that the conversation feels dynamic and responsive.

Example Bumps Sent When No Reply At All

  • "Just bumping this up in case you got busy before :) "

  • "(NAME) yes/no is fine"

  • "Have I just got ghosted?"

Example Bumps Sent When Prospect Has Previously Replied

  • "(NAME) are you still there?"

  • "Just picking this convo up with you again"

  • "Still interested in (product)?"

The Next Steps After Positive Engagement

Qualifying the Lead

Once a lead responds positively to the second SMS, our AI begins the qualification process. These leads have already shown initial interest, so the qualification isn’t overly stringent. The AI navigates the conversation based on predefined criteria, determining the lead’s current interest and readiness.

Conclusion

Reviving aged leads is more than a mere re-contact strategy; it's about re-engagement with a personal and thoughtful approach. Our two-step SMS strategy is a testament to how AI and personalisation can transform old leads into valuable opportunities.
