Help me write an email to win back a past customer who hasn't bought in a while.

My business: [WHAT YOU DO]
What they bought before: [PRODUCT OR SERVICE]
How long since they last bought: [ROUGH TIMEFRAME]
Why they might have drifted: [PRICE / FORGOT / ONE-TIME NEED / NOT SURE]
What I can offer to bring them back, if anything: [OFFER — OR "NOTHING SPECIAL"]
What's new or better since they left: [IF ANYTHING]

Write an email that:
- Feels warm and personal, like I remember them, not like a mass blast
- Doesn't guilt-trip them for being away
- Gives one clear, genuine reason to come back
- Makes the next step easy and low-pressure
- Includes an easy way to say "no thanks" or update their preferences

Under 120 words. Give me two versions — one with an offer, one that works if I have no discount to give. Add a short subject line for each.

Example scenario

A massage therapist could use this to reconnect with clients who haven't booked in six months, without sounding desperate.
