Lead Re-Engagement Message
Revive cold leads respectfully, with an easy opt-out tone.
How do I use this WhatsApp template?
Copy this follow-up message template into your WAExtension template library, replace the {{variables}} with recipient details, and send it directly from WhatsApp Web.
The message
Hi {{name}}, it's been a while since we spoke about {{topic}}. Are you still exploring options? If the timing wasn't right, no problem - I'll keep you posted on useful updates only.
Variables: {{name}}, {{topic}}
When to use it
Reconnection and revival messages built around timing, usefulness and an easy opt-out tone.
Personalisation tips
- Fill every variable (
{{name}},{{topic}}) before sending — an unfilled placeholder destroys trust instantly. - Reference one concrete detail from the previous message so it reads as written, not broadcast.
- Keep a single clear ask. If the draft has two questions, split the message.
- Match the formality of the customer’s own messages.
Best practices
- Send at a reasonable local time for the recipient.
- If there is no reply, wait for the scheduled follow-up interval rather than double-texting the same day.
- Log the outcome on the contact record so the next person sees what happened.
- Stop politely when someone opts out — record that preference as a tag.
WAExtension templates assist messages you send manually from WhatsApp Web. They are separate from WhatsApp Business Platform approved message templates, which are a different Meta product.

Paste it into the Message Templates library, then insert it with your shortcut and fill the variables ({{name}}, {{topic}}).
No. Templates speed up messages you choose to send, one conversation at a time. Respect recipient consent and WhatsApp platform policies — WAExtension is an independent productivity tool, not a bulk-messaging utility.
