Revive the pipeline you already paid for.

Dormant contacts in your CRM represent acquired demand that went cold. Riley re-engages 30/60/90-day silent contacts with the right message at the right time — automatically.

The problem

Your most cost-effective pipeline is already in your CRM — gathering dust.

You already paid the acquisition cost. Most teams never touch them again.

For every active prospect, a B2B team carries far more dormant ones — contacts who showed interest months ago and went silent. You already paid the acquisition cost. Most teams never touch them again because manual revival doesn't scale.

  • Acquired demand wasted
    Real money was spent acquiring each dormant contact, then most are never re-engaged once they go silent.
  • Manual revival doesn't scale
    Pulling a "30+ days quiet" list weekly and crafting per-contact re-engagement is full-time work.
  • Generic blasts kill reputation
    Sending "checking in!" to everyone at once trips spam filters and damages sender reputation.
  • Timing is everything
    30-day silence vs. 90-day silence vs. 12-month silence — each needs a different message + channel.
The solution

Riley re-engages the right contact with the right message at the right time.

Automatic, per-contact, in your brand voice — not a quarterly blast.

  1. 01
    Step 1

    Identify dormant contacts

    Riley continuously segments contacts by silence duration + last-engagement signal + ICP fit.

  2. 02
    Step 2

    Pick the right angle

    Per-contact context: what they last asked about, what changed since, what would re-engage them now.

  3. 03
    Step 3

    Send adaptive touch

    Email first; if no engage, SMS; if no engage, LinkedIn. Riley adjusts cadence per silence segment.

  4. 04
    Step 4

    Hand back the re-engaged

    Contact responds? Riley hands the conversation to sales with the new context + history.

Capabilities

What Riley does on dormant pipeline

The work a marketing ops team + part-time SDR would otherwise do — continuously, in your voice.

Continuous segmentation

Dormant contacts get re-evaluated daily — silence duration, last-engagement signal, ICP fit, role changes.

Per-contact personalisation

Riley reads what they last asked about + what changed since + drafts a real re-engagement angle.

Adaptive cadence

30-day silence gets a different touch than 90-day silence. Riley times it per segment, not by calendar.

Multi-channel mix

Email → SMS → LinkedIn — Riley escalates channels when prior ones don't engage. Stops when one works.

Sender-reputation aware

Spaced sending + warm-up patterns + engagement filtering protect your sender reputation.

Re-engagement handoff

When a dormant contact responds substantively, Riley hands the thread to sales with the new context.

In product

A reawaken sequence Riley runs autonomously across email → SMS → LinkedIn, with auto-park when no engage.

FAQ

Common questions

Won't mass re-engagement trip spam filters?
Riley sends across days/weeks with engagement-aware throttling, not bulk blasts. Sender-reputation patterns are built in. You can configure per-domain limits if needed.
What's the right "dormant" threshold?
Depends on your sales cycle. ScendCore defaults to 30/60/90-day buckets with different message angles per bucket. You can override the thresholds and angles per segment.
How does Riley know what they were interested in before?
Riley reads CRM history + prior conversations + activity signals. The re-engagement references something real ("last time we talked, you were exploring X — wanted to share Y that's relevant").
Can Riley pause re-engagement for specific contacts?
Yes — opt-outs, manual pauses, sales-team-flagged "don't touch" lists are all respected. Riley defers to humans when they say no.
How is this different from a drip nurture campaign?
A drip is a fixed schedule with templated content. Riley's revival is per-contact, per-signal, per-channel — and reads CRM history to reference actual prior context. Drip is mass; Riley is targeted.
