What is a Lead Reactivation Alert?
Overview
A Lead Reactivation Alert is a powerful feature within Franchise Ninja that identifies previously captured leads (from your CRM or uploaded lists) who are actively researching business ownership again.
Instead of treating dormant leads as inactive, Franchise Ninja continuously monitors their behavior and alerts you when they return to the market allowing your team to reconnect at the right moment.
How It Works
-
Upload Your Existing Leads
Import your dormant or existing lead csv file into Franchise Ninja.
-
Ongoing Monitoring
Franchise Ninja tracks behavioral signals across its data network, identifying when these individuals show renewed interest in franchise ownership.
-
Reactivation Identified
When a lead becomes active again (e.g., researching business ownership), they are flagged as “active.”
-
Alert & Action
Your team is notified, so you can initiate timely outreach while the candidate is back in an active decision-making phase.
What Triggers a Reactivation Alert?
A Lead Reactivation Alert is triggered when a previously known lead demonstrates new, high-intent behavior, such as searching for business ownership.
