Creating an effective win-back email campaigns
As per an HBR study, the cost of acquiring a new customer can be 5 to 25 times higher than the cost of retaining an existing customer.
This statistic alone speaks volumes about the need to have an effective customer win-back strategy, but inactive customers pose a further risk of giving you a poor sender reputation.

When you start thinking along the lines of ‘how do I re-engage my email-subscribers,’ the first thing to do is to identify the specific set of subscribers with whom you want to reconnect.

They give a free trial of generally a month or 7 days which results in user engagement and users often take the paid subscription plans.
