Tools: Data analysis, historical CRM dataRoles: Analytics (lead), CSM (validation)

Success: 5-10 health metrics selected and defined

Quality gate: Metrics approved, data sources identified

Why it matters

  • A calibrated health score turns scattered signals into one number teams can act on. It's the backbone of proactive CS.

Best practices

  • Pick metrics that correlate with retention.
  • Build the model on real data, then validate.
  • Deploy with thresholds that trigger action.
  • Improve the model continuously.

Common mistakes

  • A score that's just usage, ignoring sentiment.
  • Thresholds nobody owns or acts on.
  • A model that never gets recalibrated.

Key questions

  • What is the leading indicator of churn in our data?
  • Who is responsible when a score drops?
