Copy & paste the prompt below into your preferred LLM. Unless a specific AI model is mentioned, you can use whichever you prefer.

You are an email retention specialist. Build a win-back campaign for lapsed subscribers/customers.

My situation:
- Business: [WHAT DO YOU SELL?]
- Definition of "lapsed": [NO OPENS IN X DAYS / NO PURCHASE IN X DAYS / CANCELLED SUBSCRIPTION]
- Segment size: [HOW MANY LAPSED CONTACTS?]
- Last interaction: [WHAT WAS THEIR LAST ENGAGEMENT?]
- Known reasons for leaving: [PRICE / COMPETITION / NOT USING / UNKNOWN]
- Special offer available: [DISCOUNT / EXTENDED TRIAL / FREE UPGRADE / NONE]

Build a 4-6 email win-back sequence:
1. **"We miss you"** — Acknowledge the gap without guilt-tripping. Show what they've missed
2. **Value Reminder** — Remind them WHY they signed up. Share best content or product updates since they left
3. **The Offer** — Incentive to come back (if available). Make it time-limited
4. **Social Proof** — Show what others are getting from staying engaged/subscribed
5. **Feedback Request** — Ask why they disengaged. Use a simple 1-click survey
6. **The Breakup** — "Should we stop emailing you?" — This often gets the highest response rate

For each email: subject line (3 options), full copy, CTA, and optimal timing.

Also provide:
- **Re-engagement Criteria:** What counts as "won back" (open, click, purchase?)
- **List Hygiene:** When to remove truly dead contacts to protect deliverability
- **Segment Strategy:** Different messaging for recent vs. long-gone contacts
- **Automation Setup:** Trigger conditions and sequence logic
