This prompt lets ChatGPT act like a LinkedIn copywriting expert and craft follow-up messages to re-engage unresponsive leads.
When a lead has shown interest (profile view) but hasn’t replied.
When nurturing leads to keep your outreach top of mind.
When increasing response rates in LinkedIn prospecting campaigns.
When maintaining professionalism while being persistent in follow-ups.
Generate a follow-up message for a lead who viewed my profile but hasn't responded to my initial message about [Topic]. Ensure the message is friendly, professional, and engaging, subtly reminding them of your previous outreach while encouraging a response.
To start, let’s assume I’m a senior marketer at HubSpot. The prompt in the context of HubSpot would look like:
Generate a follow-up message for a lead who viewed my profile but hasn't responded to my initial message about HubSpot Marketing Hub solutions. Ensure the message is friendly, professional, and engaging, subtly reminding them of your previous outreach while encouraging a response.
As you can see, this example demonstrates how the prompt balances tact and persistence, providing a message that nudges the lead toward engagement without feeling pushy.
And here's the output:
Subject: Just following up on my previous note
Hi [First Name],
I hope you’re doing well! I noticed you had a chance to view my profile recently—thank you for taking the time. I wanted to follow up on my earlier message about how HubSpot’s Marketing Hub solutions can help [Company Name] streamline marketing efforts and drive growth.
If it makes sense, I’d love to schedule a brief chat to understand your current goals and see if there’s a fit. Even a 15-minute conversation could be valuable.
Looking forward to your thoughts!
Best regards,
[Your Name]
[Your Job Title]
[Your Contact Info]
Or to be more specific:
Keep the message concise and under 150 words.
Personalize based on their profile activity or shared interests.
Use curiosity or value-based hooks to encourage a reply.
Avoid repeating the initial message verbatim; add a new angle or insight.
See where you rank, where competitors beat you, and what to do about it — across every AI engine.
