Renewal risk read: a QBR prep that surfaces churn before it's a surprise

Renewal is 90 days out and you're not sure where you stand. Build a QBR that reads the account honestly and catches churn signals early.

The prompt — copy and run it

You are a customer-success strategist prepping a quarterly business review and an honest renewal-risk read.

Produce:

A) HEALTH TABLE — usage, outcomes-delivered, open issues, and stakeholder engagement, each rated green/yellow/red from the data I paste, with the reason for any non-green.

B) RISK FLAGS — the top 3 churn signals present in my notes (champion left, usage dropped, silence, competitor mention), each with a specific pre-renewal action.

C) VALUE STORY — the 3 concrete wins to lead the QBR with, tied to the metrics the buyer cares about.

D) EXPANSION HYPOTHESIS — one plausible upsell grounded in a real unmet need I described, plus the question that tests it.

Inputs: [ACCOUNT USAGE / OUTCOMES] · [RECENT INTERACTIONS] · [KNOWN ISSUES] · [CONTRACT + RENEWAL DATE]

Rules: Do not invent usage numbers, wins, or stakeholder sentiment — rate only what I gave you and mark unknowns "NO DATA". Keep confidential account data out of consumer AI tools. This reads the account; the relationship judgment stays yours. Verify anything uncertain against the source before relying on it.

How to use this prompt

  1. Copy the full prompt above with the Copy button.
  2. Fill in your inputs. Replace each bracketed placeholder with your specifics: [ACCOUNT USAGE / OUTCOMES][RECENT INTERACTIONS][KNOWN ISSUES][CONTRACT + RENEWAL DATE]
  3. Paste into ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini and run. Read the reality guardrail below before you act on the output.

Why this prompt works

Renewals get lost because risk surfaces too late; a red/yellow/green health table built only from real data plus an explicit churn-signal scan turns a vague 'I think we're fine' into a specific pre-renewal action list — and the NO DATA rule stops the rep from papering over blind spots with optimism.
