Why it matters
- Most leads aren't ready at first touch. Nurture keeps the relationship alive until they are — without it, interest rots.
Best practices
- Segment before you sequence.
- Make every email useful, not just present.
- Time touches to engagement.
- Short and relevant beats long and frequent.
Common mistakes
- Sequences that only sell.
- Everyone gets the same flow.
- Never cleaning the list of dead leads.
Key questions
- What does this lead need to hear at this stage?
- When do we stop and let sales take over?
