The dormant pile
70% of the leads you've paid for are sitting in your CRM, cold. Not dead — dormant. MagicBlocks reactivates them with personalised outreach — within your consent rules, at a fraction of the cost of a new lead.
The dormant pile
You've run ads, partnered with sources, built funnels, paid affiliates. Every one of those leads is real — a human who at some point raised their hand and said "I might be interested." And then life happened. They got busy. The timing was wrong. A rep didn't follow up enough times. It didn't close. They didn't evaporate. They just got quiet.
Every row continuously cycles cold → scanning → drafting → sent → replied. In production this runs across the whole CRM.
The math of sunk cost
Net-new lead acquisition is expensive and getting worse. Costs per qualified lead in most of our verticals have climbed 40–60% over five years. Meanwhile, the leads already sitting in your CRM cost zero to revisit — the money was spent. Every reactivation is pure recovery.
Cheaper to reactivate a known lead than acquire a net-new one at equivalent intent.

MagicBlocks · n=47 operators, 2025What a reactivation sounds like
The only reactivation that works is the kind that leads with a real reason. Rates moved. Inventory changed. A policy updated. A product launched. MagicBlocks identifies which dormant leads have a fresh reason to hear from you — then opens with it, not with an apology for the gap.
Illustrative reactivation conversation. Rates are market ranges, not offers. Outbound reactivation runs only on leads within active marketing consent; opt-outs honored instantly and permanently. Lending decisions made by licensed loan officers.
What your team sees
Reactivated leads are the most valuable handoffs in your pipeline — they came back. But they're also fragile: they don't want to be treated like a stranger. Your rep gets the full history, the 14-month gap contextualised, the signal that triggered reactivation, and the lead's stated priority from the original inquiry. The rep joins the call already knowing why this person came back.

FAQ · Reactivation
We respect the consent windows you define. If your policy is "only reactivate leads whose marketing consent is less than 18 months old," we won’t touch leads outside that window — even if other segments would otherwise match. You set the rule; we enforce it.
Reactivation of leads with active marketing consent is standard practice across regulated industries when done properly. MagicBlocks is built for TCPA consent and opt-out requirements — consent is checked before each send, an opt-out is included in every touch, and suppressions propagate across channels. Your compliance team sets the scope; we operate inside it. Your own counsel should confirm your specific consent-capture and retention practices before running reactivation at scale.
Not if the reactivation leads with a real reason. The whole approach is signal-triggered — rate moves, seasonal windows, renewal events, inventory changes. A touch that says "rates moved meaningfully since your last inquiry, worth a second look?" is the kind of reactivation most operators actually appreciate. "Hi, remember us?" is the kind that gets marked spam. We don’t send those.
Three layers. First, the segment you defined (e.g., "refi inquiries, last 18 months, opted in to marketing"). Second, the signal that triggered the wave (e.g., "refi rates dropped 25bps this week"). Third, a per-lead match between the signal and the lead’s original stated priority (e.g., "this lead’s stated priority was lowest monthly payment — the rate move is meaningfully relevant"). Only leads that pass all three get touched.
Two modes. Review-first — every reactivation touch sits in a queue for sign-off before send. Most operators use this for the first 2–4 weeks, until they’re comfortable with the voice and scope. Autopilot — we send instantly, every message logged and auditable. Switch between modes any time.
Depends on the wave. Strong signal + strong original intent (e.g., mortgage refi during a rate move) can hit 15%+. Seasonal reactivations in home services typically sit 8–12%. Insurance renewal windows around 10%. A full reactivation sweep across a mixed-age mixed-intent list typically averages 6–11%. Lists that are properly consented and recently active tend toward the high end.
One click. The wave halts, in-flight touches stop, nothing further fires. Scheduled touches for leads that haven’t been reached yet are cancelled. Logs are preserved for audit.
If all we have is an email, we run email-only. If we have an SMS number with consent, we use that. If we have no reachable channel with active consent, the lead is skipped — not flagged, not touched, not moved out of dormant. Nothing about reactivation bypasses channel + consent discipline.
Reactivation is exactly the work SDRs don’t want and won’t do well — cold context, low per-hour hit rate, repetitive. MagicBlocks handles the volume; your SDRs get the re-engaged live conversations that come out the other end. Reactivation is additive to rep capacity, not a replacement for it.
