Re-Approach Lost Deals as Their Competitor Contract Expires
Estimates when a lost prospect's contract with the chosen competitor is up for renewal, then reopens the deal and schedules outreach to land in the buyer's evaluation window.

What it does
Times your re-approach to the only moment a locked-in account is actually shoppable: their renewal window. It infers the likely renewal date from the original loss date and contract length, then reopens the deal and queues outreach to hit just before it.
When to use it
Use it in markets with annual or multi-year contracts where a lost deal is unreachable until renewal. Ideal when you log the loss date and competitor's contract term in your CRM.
How it works
- 1A weekly schedule scans Salesforce for closed-lost deals whose inferred renewal window opens in the next 60 days.
- 2A logic step computes the re-approach date from loss date plus known contract term and confirms the account is still in segment.
- 3An Exa check verifies the account is still operating and not already re-engaged elsewhere.
- 4The opportunity is reopened in Salesforce with a renewal-timed re-approach date and stage.
- 5A reminder task and calendar hold are created via Google Calendar for the owning rep.
- 6The rep receives a Slack heads-up with the renewal timing and prior deal notes.
