Sales Reps, Send This Email If You’ve Been Ghosted

Posted June 20, 2023

Being “ghosted” sucks.

Here’s a super easy email tactic that can help.

First, use this subject line, and feel free to customize it.

“(Name) Have you given up on (the outcome your solution provides),”

In the body of the email, take a sentence or two before you get to the point so that the preview text doesn’t totally give your message away (without the recipient opening it).

End the email with the question you used in the subject line. Remember, ending an email with a question inspires responses!

Make sure the email is no more than a few sentences.

The email works like a charm because it’s actually a “pattern interrupt” and takes the recipient off script. It draws the prospect back out.

Hat tip to Chris Voss for inspiring this tip!
