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

Shown as written in the product's Goals picker, category Nurture & Relationships. Text in curly brackets is a blank the picker asks you to fill.
Warm connect. Priority Low
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.
Value first. Priority Medium
Deliver value before asking: make three high-value educational touches over 21 days, with no meeting ask on the first two.
Research conversations. Priority Medium
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 lost leads. Priority Medium
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.

  • You have nothing useful to send.

Common questions

Do nurture goals book meetings?
Sometimes, later. They aim at a good exchange first.
Is there a published research style campaign?
Yes: the ShortVibe case study, where a founder booked 19 discovery calls framed as asking for the person's perspective.
How do I re-engage lost deals?
Use the re-engage lost leads goal and the closed lost re-engagement email template.
