Goal templates: nurture and relationships
The Nurture & Relationships category in Sellinger's Goals picker holds 4 goal templates for conversations where a meeting is not the first aim: warming up a connection, giving value before asking, research conversations and re-engaging leads that went quiet. This page shows each goal as written and what to watch.

What this category is for
Not every conversation should end in a call this week. These goals are for long sales cycles, senior buyers and leads that went cold, where the job is to earn the next conversation. They count a good exchange or a respectful exit as a result.
The 4 catalog goals, exact text
Connect and warm up: send a short, friendly note with no pitch, have one genuine exchange, and leave a good impression for a future conversation.
Deliver value before asking: make three high-value educational touches over 21 days, with no meeting ask on the first two.
Run genuine research conversations to learn where the prospect's workflow breaks down. A 20-minute learning call or a respectful disengagement are both wins.
Re-engage leads that went quiet or were lost: reference the earlier conversation, share what has changed since, and reopen the door to a next step.
What each goal does
| Goal | What it achieves | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Warm connect | Builds a relationship before any ask. | No meeting is expected, so measure exchanges, not bookings. |
| Value first | Earns attention with useful content. | The touches must be genuinely useful, not disguised pitches. |
| Research conversations | Fits discovery and product validation. | Do not turn the research into a pitch. |
| Re-engage lost leads | Gives old leads a reason to reply. | Something must really have changed. |
When to use these goals, and when not to
Use them when
- Your sales cycle is long, or your buyers are senior and wary.
- You have old leads and a real update to share.
Do not use them when
- You need meetings this month.
- You have nothing useful to send.
