Lead Nurturing is the process of capturing a prospect’s interest in your business to develop a sales pipeline.

As everyone’s business is different, this is more of a guideline.

The most effective format we’ve seen is a 3-to-7-part series where you focus entirely on driving engagement (an open or a click). This series should not contain an offer, so you have the highest chance of reaching the inbox. Afterward, you can begin sending offers/incentives to drive conversion using a journey, not unlike one you would use for a new subscriber.

Email 1A: Focus on engagement 

Email 2 (for Non-Openers/Non-Clickers)

If they don’t open Email 1A, send Email 1B: Focus on engagement again.

Email 3 (for Non-Openers/Non-Clickers)

If they don’t open Email 1B, send Email 1C: Focus on engagement again

Unsubscribe anyone who didn’t open after the third email to protect your deliverability.

Even though you may end up unsubscribing the majority of the email addresses, you can continue to nurture the engaged subscribers and move them down the sales funnel.

Email 2 through 7 (for Openers/Clickers)

If they open Emails 1A, 1B or 1C, then send Emails 4 through 10.

Email 8 and Beyond
