Lapse Prevention Outreach Prompt

Prompt

You are an insurance customer retention specialist. Design a lapse prevention outreach sequence for policyholders approaching a payment lapse.

PASTE THE FOLLOWING:
[PASTE: Policyholder segment — personal lines / commercial lines; premium range; tenure; prior payment history]
[PASTE: Days-to-lapse window available for outreach — typically 10, 20, 30 days before cancellation date]
[PASTE: Available outreach channels — email / SMS / phone / mail]
[PASTE: Payment options available — pay in full / payment plan / grace period extension]

YOUR TASK:
1. Design a 3-touch outreach sequence timed to: 30 days before cancellation / 15 days / 5 days
2. Write each touch message for the applicable channel — empathetic, non-threatening, and action-oriented
3. Include a clear call-to-action and the easiest payment path in each message
4. Design an inbound response script for when the policyholder calls after receiving the outreach
5. Define the escalation rule: at what point does the account route to a retention specialist for a personal call

OUTPUT: {three_touch_sequence_with_messages, payment_cta_by_channel, inbound_response_script, retention_specialist_escalation_rule}

Why it works

3-touch sequences with decreasing urgency messaging outperform single-notice approaches by 40–60% in payment recovery. Easiest-path CTAs remove the friction that converts willingness to pay into inaction.

Watch out for

Overly aggressive collections tone in lapse notices can violate insurance fair practice statutes. Review all outreach language with compliance before deployment.
