Customer Win-Back Agent
Identifies churned or lapsing customers, segments them by churn reason, and runs tailored win-back campaigns with dynamically adjusted offers.
Win-back campaigns are frequently sent as a single generic discount blast to everyone who has churned in the past year, ignoring the fact that a customer who left due to price sensitivity needs a very different message than one who left due to a product gap that has since been fixed
Building segmented win-back campaigns manually requires pulling churn reason data from support tickets, cancellation surveys, and usage history, work that's rarely prioritized until a broader reactivation push is already underway
This agent segments lapsed customers by inferred or stated churn reason, matches each segment to a relevant win-back message and offer (a fixed limitation, a new feature, a loyalty incentive), and monitors reactivation performance to continuously refine what's working per segment
It also identifies the optimal timing window for outreach based on historical win-back conversion patterns
The agent pulls churned and lapsing customer records along with cancellation survey responses, support ticket history, and product usage data leading up to churn, then classifies each customer into a churn-reason segment (price, missing feature, poor onboarding, low engagement, competitor switch) using pattern matching against known signals. It selects a tailored win-back message and offer type per segment from an approved library, times outreach based on historical reactivation-window data, and sends the campaign through the connected email/SMS platform. Reactivation outcomes are tracked per segment and offer type, feeding back into the segment-to-offer matching logic for continuous refinement.
