What is the best follow up email you have ever send if prospect has ghosted you after showing a positive response in your product or service?

Our war room general shared this one a while ago. Best in class
This is sick🔥
Have you picked up the phone to call them or shown up at their office?
“Did we lose you?” subject line only, nothing in the body. Do not send anything else after this. Gets a response 9/10 times, no joke. If they don’t get back in 7 business days the deal is dead.
Not an email, but a calendar invite for 15 minutes, asking them to propose a new time if that doesn’t work
You directly sent the calendar invite?
I had this exact situation (super frustrating why they don’t reply) but I try to give them the benefit of the doubt for a little.
I like the approach because it’s hard to ignore a calendar invite sitting on your work calendar. At the very least they’ll decline and you know not to waste too much of your time on it

has anyone accepted the invite?
Yes, and told me no so I could stop wasting time
"Seems like this isn;t something that isnt a top priority anymore. Thanks for making time to connect earlier."
They either tell you when it would be best to reach out or say no I was just swamped

Tried this on lot of prospects long time ago and unfortunately it didn't worked for me
basically just call or if that doesn't work, send a break up email.
It’s cheesy as hell but works:

Hey Emma- you're prob thinking "this girl again? leave me alone!"
You know what annoys me? My alarm clock.
I hate the sound, it rips me from lovely dreams, but... it's just doing its job. I need it.
You may not enjoy receiving emails and calls from me, but what if you need _____?
I'm just doing my job. :)
Hoping it's a good time to connect. If not, please reply with SNOOZE.
Thank you,

This is some creative shit
It works… try it when reengaging someone cold or someone you’ve already spoken to. I have loads more up my sleeve :) even wrote song lyrics for a C-Level and got to demo at their HQ!
Depends. In the past I have sent a message to the effect of “I’m not expecting you to buy, but no-one likes a surprise price increase. So, incase your plans have changed I thought I’d let you know that current pricing is valid for 15 days”. <br>In the following 2 weeks around $580k’s worth of business closed.
(I don’t do discounts, the price increase was REALLY coming into effect).

according to my experience this won't get a reply
I don’t get enthusiastic when prospects show a positive attitude towards my products. Instead I ask about other solutions they have tried, why would mine be any better etc etc… prospects can sense it if you feel needy. I just try to help them find the right solution, even if that is not my product.
Dear Prospect,
Have you given up on this?

Phone Call on Mobile
I send a calendar invite if I’m getting ignored all the time. 19/20x it at least gets a response, and has recently led to a few closed/won deals.
the best follow up email.....is to call them directly.
Dear Prospect, I wrote you but you still ain't callin'
I left my cell, my email, and my work phone at the bottom
I sent two emails back in autumn, you must not-a got 'em
There probably was a problem with the mail server or somethin'
Sometimes I scribble email addresses too sloppy when I jot 'em
But anyways, whatever, what’s you been up to? This is Stan.
