Customers come and customers go. What if you could know before they go? Account Based Marketing (ABM) isn't enough. ABM needs to be paired with a data-sharing architecture and predictive analytics to prevent customers from churning (leaving).

Customer Churn Prevention
1. A technical problem
2. A data sharing problem
7. Customers are telling you
their intentions.
Let’s look at some.
Customer Churn Prevention
8. We collected a set
of data on
CUSTOMERS
WHO LEFT
the Company.
Step 1: Data Clarity, Collection & Cleaning
9. Step 2:
Using that data set of churning customer behaviors,
we CALCULATE A PROBABILITY MODEL
to monitor customer’s behaviors.

scope of this webinar.
Here’s a
peek at how
the “Flight
Risk” Scores
(Churn Risk)
can be
generated
12. Data Sharing is Data Caring!
Using internal customer data and
APIs, we connected multiple systems across
departments.
Ahhh… DASHBOARDING Happiness!

After a customer
completes some
behavior related to
churn, APIs are set to
trigger unique alerts
to each appropriate
department.

Editor's Notes
Marketing is buying a Marketing Automation tool. But they bought the Marketing Automation tool with the API that nobody knows how to harness. That’s a Marketing data problem.
Engineering is all excited about their latest software upgrade. But Customer Service can’t see the customer’s login records, and they don’t know what the customer experience or history has been when they get a complaint. That’s an Engineering data problem.
Finance just bought a new billing & renewals system but didn’t tell anybody what they were buying. And nobody verified that it will work with the Marketing Automation API or with the Customer Service Ticketing System API or Engineering’s customer system (unpaid customers need payment reminders). That’s a Finance data problem.
I'm going to dive a bit into the technical issue and offer a customer churn solution and then take a data stitching approach to tackle the data sharing problem
Because we connected the Marketing Automation system to the CRM, we are now ready to do full analysis of the customer acquisition. And with a customer data warehouse also connected to the CRM, there there is also the opportunity to marry the customer churn data with the customer acquisition data -- giving a view into the full customer lifecycle.
