WRITE A FOLLOW-UP EMAIL AFTER NO RESPONSE WRITTEN BY: Rachel Woods

Here are 6 Best Tips for Writing a Follow-Up Email After No Response in 2021: 1. Add Context Try to jog your recipient’s memory by opening your email with a reference to a previous email or interaction.

Even if your recipient draws a blank, they’re more likely to react positively to the follow-up if they’ve been reminded of the fact that they’ve heard from you before.

Openers you might want to try include: • I just wanted to follow up on the email I sent last [day of the week email was sent] about [subject of email].

• I just wanted to follow up to see what you thought about [subject of email].

• I hope this doesn’t sound weird, but I saw that you read my previous email.

2. Write a Catchy Opening Line If you start your cold follow-up with something blurry, dull, and not personalized, the chances are that you’ll never get a response from your prospect.

It’s recommended polishing your opening line to make your prospects interested in learning more about what you have to offer.

Try to avoid such opening lines: • Just checking in • Thought I would just check-in and find out • Just wanted to check-in to hear about • Touching base Instead, you can spark interest with a question, mention mutual connection, start with the prospect’s problem, or use a recent trigger event.

Besides that, in your opening line try to give the context as to why you’re emailing the prospect. It could be a simple and short recap of your previous email.

3. A Great Follow Up is Short Nobody has the time to read through their email inbox.

If a person has already read your first email and decided not to reply, and you still make them read another huge message. Yeah, it won’t win you any new clients.

Besides, keep in mind the reason why you send a follow-up email in the first place, it’s not to sell your prospect on your product all over again, it’s to remind them about that initial message they didn’t reply to.

4. Don’t Follow Up Too Quickly Salespeople like to categorize themselves as persistent.

It’s one of our calling cards and part of our identity, but when conducting follow up, persistence can begin to look a lot like pestering.

Being persistent without insight into why the prospect isn’t responding is not smart.

If you’re only waiting a day or two to touch base again after the first outreach email, you’re not giving them time to respond.

5. Pay Attention to a Follow Up Email Subject Line Do not use some vague subject lines, like “Just checking-in” or “Important to read.”

A better option is “Programming department meeting, April 30th”.

Emphasize your initial interaction to remind your addressee about your last meeting or talk.

Example: “I got excited after I spoke to you at _________.”

Clearly say your follow-up intentions.

Another example: “It would be rather interesting to learn more about ______ as I am currently leading a similar project at______.”
