Qualify the relationship first
Before drafting outreach, verify all of the following:- The current employer and role, with a profile or other public source.
- The prior relationship and why this person was a champion or buyer.
- The new account’s ICP fit, customer status, and active-deal status.
- The original owner, suppression state, and any negative customer history.

Prepare the review file
Keep these fields and boundaries
Keep the previous company, relationship type, original owner, last interaction, current-role evidence, and decision outcome. Your team should set scan cadence and territory handling; those are operating policies, not facts a job-change match can decide. A former champion at a non-ICP company can be retained as a relationship record, but should not be added to a campaign by default.Related: Signal playbooks | Hiring Signals | Fundraising Signals | Deal Risk Signals | Job changes and CRM cleanup
