Closing the Loop

The prospect seemed interested. 

You had a great first call. 

You presented a proposal and they were enthusiastic.

You send over the contract and invoice — a formality, really.

And… crickets. 

After a few days, you write again to check in. 

No reply.

The following week, you send an article you think they’ll like. 

You add a PS reminding them they still haven’t signed the contract.

No reply.

You send a quick text.

Nothing.

My friend, it’s time for The Magic Email.


I don’t know who invented the Magic Email. 

I first heard of it in my StoryBrand marketing community. 

Blair Enns has a version of it. Kai Davis owns TheMagicEmail.com.

Its origins don’t really matter. 

Its potency does.

If you have a prospect who’s ghosting you, give it a try and see for yourself.

Write this. Nothing else: 

“Since I have not heard from you on this, I have to assume your priorities have changed.”

It may be tempting to add words. 

Don’t.

I’ve heard a dozen stories of the shockingly fast results this email produces.

Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
