Pro-tip: Personalize it to each client for even greater impact.
When all else fails, ask an easy-to-answer hypothetical question.
This text is designed to resurrect cold leads that you’ve been neglecting or that have been ignoring you.
Most agents think prospecting is about persistence—just make more calls, send more texts, and eventually, something will stick. But volume isn’t the problem. Relevance is.
The truth? Consumers aren’t ignoring you because they don’t want to sell. They’re hesitating because of the voice in their head:
- Interest rates are still high.
- The stock market is correcting.
- The economy feels uncertain.
- What if prices drop?
If you don’t address that voice, you’ll lose them before the conversation even starts.
That’s why this text works. It flips the script—acknowledging their hesitation up front, instead of pretending it doesn’t exist. It disarms, engages, and clears the path for real conversations.
It’s a simple shift, but it changes everything.
This text is perfect for re-engaging cold leads because it combines timely, relevant market insights with a non-threatening, open-ended question. It piques curiosity by sharing valuable information (12% jump in applications and lower rates) while inviting a conversation about their situation. The conversational tone and calibrated question make it feel personal and approachable, increasing the likelihood of a response without sounding salesy.
Gratitude isn’t just a feel-good sentiment; it’s a powerful psychological tool. When you express genuine appreciation, it activates positive emotions in your clients, strengthening trust and deepening relationships. Studies show that gratitude fosters reciprocity—clients are more likely to stay loyal, refer others, and feel good about their decision to work with you. It’s a small gesture with a big impact on both personal and professional connections.
What’s stopping your prospective clients from making a move? High-interest rates?
For many, it’s the only thing holding them back.

That’s why this script is so effective.
