Summary
What do you do when your customer just… stops paying attention? This week's episode was inspired by a walk on our farm -- and a stubborn dog who found a vole in the field and completely tuned me out. Calling louder didn't work. Waiting didn't work. What finally worked was walking back out to her, getting in her line of sight, and offering her the right treat -- something she actually wanted. That moment sparked a powerful realization about customers who go quiet (and what actually brings them back). If you've ever looked at your email list or customer list and thought, "Where did everyone go?" -- this episode is for you. Customers going cold doesn't mean they're unhappy. It usually means they're distracted, out of rhythm, or don't have a clear reason to buy right now . In this episode, I introduce the concept of win-back campaigns (one of the simplest, highest-ROI marketing systems you can build for your farm).

If you want the step by step for how to actually build this asset fast, I have an entire project inside of Farm Marketing School on Setting Up Your Win-Back Campaign, including: How to identify cold customers How to build your win back offer How to set up tags and automations in your email provider How to write the emails (with templates + AI prompts) How to turn win-backs into a repeatable, yearly system 👉 If you want the how-to , not just the why…
