Here’s a quick tip you can try this week. It could easily lead to your next client or sale.

Reconnect with old leads sitting quietly in your inbox.

Yep, just open your email (Gmail, Outlook, wherever you talk to clients) and scroll through your Sent folder or Contacts list. Here’s how to do it:

1️⃣ Pick a contact and review your last convo. Look for a paused project, an unanswered question, or just something you never followed up on.

2️ Send a short, personal message.

You’re not pitching, just starting a friendly chat. Try something like:

“Hey [Name], it’s been a minute! I was thinking about [that project/idea] — how’s that going?”

or“Saw this [blog/video/PDF] and thought of you — figured it might be useful.”

3️⃣ Keep it light. You’re just rekindling the relationship. Be helpful, human, and real.

4️⃣ Repeat. Work your way through your list. Even a few replies can turn into real opportunities.

Pro tip: Reply to the old thread if you can. It gives instant context and saves them from wondering, “Wait, who is this?”

You might be surprised how much potential is hiding in plain sight.

Give it a shot and let me know how it goes. I’d love to hear what comes from it!
