Teams · Customer Success

Every customer answered and every renewal prepared. Sent by a person.

The Customer Success Lead and Customer Operations keep each account current: they sort incoming requests, draft replies, watch health and prepare renewals. Every reply and offer to a customer, and every refund or discount, is sent by a person.

  2. 02A renewal in 60 days and usage is downThe health score turns amber, the account history is summarised and a renewal plan is drafted for the account owner.
  3. 03A new customer signs on FridayOnboarding opens the checklist, drafts the welcome email and the first-week plan, and books the kickoff. A person sends each message.
