Nurture and Re-Engage
Day 18 of 30 · B2B Sales 2026 Masterclass
Build a simple 3-step nurture flow for “not now” leads.
Learning Goal
- Write a 3-step nurture flow (value, proof, offer).
- Segment: “not fit”, “not now”, “later”.
- Set a metric (reply, meeting, SQL).
Why It Matters
- Long cycles: “not now” leads can come back.
- Value + proof + offer builds trust.
- Without measurement, you don’t learn nurture impact.
Explanation
3 steps
- Value: 1 useful asset/case study.
- Proof: number/benchmark/result.
- Offer: short call or audit.
Segmentation
- Not fit: close, no nurture.
- Not now: 3-step nurture.
- Later: reminder in 60–90 days.
Examples
Good: 3 emails: case study + benchmark + short audit offer.
Bad: Monthly generic “we’re still here” email.
