How to Write Effective Re-Engagement Emails

Re-engagement emails are your best chance to win back subscribers who've stopped opening your emails or customers who've stopped buying. With the right approach, you can reactivate up to 10-20% of your dormant list.

Why Re-Engagement Matters

  • 5x cheaper: Re-engaging existing subscribers costs far less than acquiring new ones.
  • Better deliverability: Removing unengaged subscribers improves your sender reputation.
  • Hidden revenue: Many "inactive" subscribers just need the right message to re-activate.
  • List hygiene: Those who don't respond can be safely removed.

Types of Re-Engagement Campaigns

We Miss You

Emotional appeal acknowledging their absence and expressing value.

What's New

Highlight improvements and new features since they left.

Special Offer

Incentive-driven with discounts or exclusive perks to return.

Feedback Request

Ask why they left and what would bring them back.

Re-Engagement Best Practices

  • Personalize heavily: Use their name, past behavior, and preferences.
  • Acknowledge the absence: Don't pretend nothing happened.
  • Provide clear value: Give them a reason to re-engage.
  • Make it easy: One-click reactivation when possible.
  • Create urgency: Time-limited offers increase action.
  • Send a series: 2-3 emails over 2 weeks, then sunset.

When to Send Re-Engagement Emails

  • Email subscribers: After 60-90 days of no opens
  • E-commerce customers: After 2x their typical purchase cycle
  • SaaS users: 7 days after trial expires, or 30 days after last login
  • Cancelled customers: 30 days after cancellation

Subject Line Strategies

  • We miss you: "It's been a while, [Name]..."
  • Direct question: "Is this goodbye?"
  • Incentive-led: "Come back for 25% off"
  • Curiosity: "Things have changed since you left"
  • FOMO: "Your [benefit] is waiting"
