# Looked But Didn't Buy (LBDB) Campaign
6+
7+
The LBDB program is an SDR-run re-engagement campaign where the targets are
8+
contacts who showed real buying intent in the past. Business users for FlowFuse
9+
Cloud, or MQLs that never scheduled a meeting, etc.
10+
11+
Targets can be found in Hubspot:
12+
13+
- Lifecycle stage remains 'MQL' after 90 days. And no deal is associated with the
14+
company they work at, or has gone stale.
15+
- Contacts who signed up for the [FlowFuse Cloud free trial](/handbook/marketing/programs/#3-brand--product-marketing)
16+
but let it expire without upgrading to a paid plan.
17+
18+
Both groups self-qualified as having a real use-case for FlowFuse. They are not
19+
cold outbound — they're [warm outbound](/handbook/marketing/lead-activation/#warm-outbound-push-based-on-relationship).
20+
21+
## Execution
22+
23+
### Segment definition and source of truth
24+
25+
The SDR pulls the working list from HubSpot, filtered to **one of**:
26+
27+
- Lifecycle stage `MQL` (or higher) with no associated closed-won/closed-lost
28+
deal, and no meeting booked in the last 90 days
29+
- Contacts tagged as a FlowFuse Cloud trial signup whose trial has expired
30+
without an upgrade.
31+
32+
See [HubSpot Contact Management](/handbook/sales/hubspot/#lifecycle-stage) for
33+
lifecycle stage definitions. Trial status is sourced from product usage data
34+
synced into HubSpot; where available, the SDR should also check
35+
[product usage signals](https://product-metrics.flowfuse.cloud/dashboard/product)
36+
(e.g. how far the contact got in onboarding) to prioritize and personalize
37+
outreach.
38+
39+
### Cadence
40+
41+
LBDB is worked as a standing block of SDR time, as contacts enter the segment
42+
automatically.
43+
44+
A contact who re-engages moves out of LBDB and into standard pipeline
45+
process; a contact who doesn't respond after a full sequence is suppressed
46+
for a cooldown period before becoming eligible again.
47+
48+
### Messaging
49+
50+
Each contact gets a multi-touch outreach sequence (email + LinkedIn + call,
51+
following the SDR's standard warm-outbound sequence cadence) rather than a
52+
single email blast.
53+
54+
Because these contacts are warm, not cold, outreach should explicitly
55+
reference the prior interaction rather than restart from a generic pitch.
56+
57+
1. Reference the specific content/webinar/signal that originally qualified them,
58+
and connect it to what's changed since (new feature releases, a relevant customer
59+
story, pricing changes).
60+
2. Reference how far they got in the trial and what stopped them
61+
(e.g. "I noticed you had a couple of flows running on FlowFuse Cloud but didn't
62+
get to invite your team — happy to help you pick that back up"). Where the
63+
reason for lapsing is known (e.g. from a prior conversation), address it
64+
directly rather than ignoring it.
65+
66+
### Tracking and reporting
67+
68+
- Every LBDB touch is logged in HubSpot against the contact, tagged so it can
69+
be filtered as part of this campaign in
70+
[Campaigns (internal)](https://app-eu1.hubspot.com/marketing/26586079/campaigns/views/all),
71+
per the standard
72+
[campaign performance tracking](/handbook/marketing/programs/#6-new-marketing-campaigns-process)
73+
requirement.
74+
- Outcomes tracked: contacts worked, response rate, meetings booked, and
75+
meetings that progress to pipeline — reported alongside other SDR
76+
[First Meetings](/handbook/marketing/sdr/#bonus-structure) activity.
77+
- LBDB-sourced meetings count toward the SDR's standard First Meetings goal;
78+
the campaign is a lead source, not a separate quota.
