Reactivation — wake dormant contacts without pestering the live ones.

The lifecycle template we ship for contacts who asked once and went quiet. The quiescence check, the value-add message, the low-pressure audit nudge, and the clean hand-off are wired by default — so the contact either comes back or is suppressed.

Trigger · Lead/contact dormant ≥ 30 days

What it does

One re-engage path. Suppression on no-engagement.

The Reactivation template runs on the back half of the lifecycle — after the lead response and nurture have spent their budget — and gives dormant contacts a short, structured chance to come back. If they don’t, the suppression is what protects the live leads from a bot that won’t stop.

Trigger event

What makes this fire.

When a lead or contact has been dormant for 30+ days — no inbound, no outbound reply, no appointment activity — and prior express written consent is still on file. The trigger excludes contacts already on the suppression list or marked as current customers.

Action sequence

The four-step default.

Timing and copy are placeholders to swap per vertical. The quiescence logic, the consent gate, and the no-engagement suppression are wired by default.

Suppression + hand-off

Results you can expect

What good looks like.

  • Reactivated leads route back into the active pipeline without manual triage
  • Live leads stay undisturbed — no-engagement contacts get suppressed, not re-tapped
  • A measurable lift in booked calls from dormant-but-warm contacts
