Process
The process is subject to change as we learn more about our customers and develop a playbook. In the meantime, we will identify what processes work and are repeatable. For these first renewals we will structure the process as follows:
Start Early - 60-90 days out should be enough time to have the conversations and work on the next agreement.
Questions to Ask / What We Need to Understand
-
What are the expectations moving forward? Are there any timelines they are working against?
-
Are there any new goals? How can we support them?
Success Metrics and KPIs
We should develop a baseline to understand our renewal performance and identify common themes across customers that could help us improve the renewal process.
| Churn | Customers who do not renew | NumberPercentAnnual Contract Value |
|---|---|---|
| Expansion or Upsell Bookings | Current customers who add to their existing contract | Number Expansion/Upsell Contract Value Average percent increase in Annual Contract Value |
| Time to Complete Renewal | KPI to track how long the process is taking | Number of weeks |
Also important to note are commonalities across customers such as:
-
Pain points?
-
What is working well?
-
What is missing?
