Ehsan's Insight
Resurrection flows target "dead" users — those who signed up but have not been active for 30+ days. The typical win-back email ("We miss you!") converts at 2-3%. A personalized resurrection flow that addresses the specific reason they became inactive converts at 8-15%. The approach: segment inactive users by their last action. Users who signed up but never activated get a simplified onboarding. Users who used the product but stopped get a "what's new" update. Users who completed a trial but did not convert get a targeted offer. One company tripled their resurrection rate by sending different emails to each segment rather than one generic win-back campaign.
