The Value of Re-engagement: Why Bother with Cold Leads?
Posted: Tue May 20, 2025 10:04 am
It might seem easier to focus solely on new lead generation, but re-engaging cold leads offers significant advantages:
Lower Acquisition Cost: It's generally more cost-effective to reactivate an existing lead than to acquire a brand new one. They already know who you are (to some extent).
Higher Conversion Potential: Cold leads have already expressed some initial interest, making them warmer than completely new prospects.
Data Insights: Their past (albeit limited) interactions provide valuable data to inform your re-engagement efforts, enabling personalization.
Brand Reinforcement: Even if they don't convert immediately, a positive re-engagement attempt reinforces your brand presence and value proposition.
Clean Up Lists: Strategic re-engagement efforts can also help identify truly disengaged contacts to be removed, improving the overall quality of your lists.
Phase 1: Identifying "Cold" Leads on Telegram
Defining a "cold" lead on Telegram is crucial and depends on your specific goals and engagement metrics.
Define "Cold":
Channel Subscribers: No views on your sweden telegram mobile phone number list last X posts, no reactions/forwards for Y weeks/months.
Group Members: No messages sent, no reactions, or no logins to the group for Z weeks/months.
Bot Users: No interaction with your bot for A weeks/months, incomplete bot flows, no response to previous automated messages.
External Traffic: Clicked a Telegram link to your website but didn't convert and haven't revisited in B weeks/months (requires UTM tracking and integrated CRM data).
Leverage Your Data Tools:
Telegram Bot Platform: This is your primary tool for identifying cold leads. Most advanced bot platforms allow you to:
Track "last seen" or "last activity" timestamps for each user.
Filter users based on tags (e.g., lead_qualified_no_purchase, product_interest_X_inactive).
Identify users who started but didn't complete specific bot flows.
