Customer Success Playbook

Build and run a customer success operation for B2B SaaS. Covers the full lifecycle: onboarding, health scoring, QBRs, churn prevention, and expansion revenue.

When to Use

  • Setting up a CS function from scratch
  • Designing onboarding flows for new customers
  • Building health score models
  • Preparing QBR templates and cadences
  • Creating churn intervention playbooks
  • Planning expansion and upsell motions

Workflow

1. Assess Current State

Ask the user:

  • Company stage (seed, Series A, growth, scale)
  • Current ARR and customer count
  • Average contract value (ACV)
  • Current CS team size (or zero)
  • Primary churn reasons if known

2. Design Lifecycle Stages

Map the customer journey:

Stage Duration Owner Key Metric
Onboarding Days 0-30 CS Lead Time to First Value
Adoption Days 30-90 CSM Feature adoption %
Retention Ongoing CSM Health score, NRR
Expansion Trigger-based CSM + AE Expansion MRR
Renewal T-90 days CSM Renewal rate
Advocacy Post-renewal CS Lead NPS, referrals

3. Build Health Score

Weight these signals (0-100 composite):

  • Product usage (25%): DAU/MAU ratio
  • Feature breadth (15%): Features used vs available
  • Support load (15%): Ticket volume and sentiment
  • Executive engagement (15%): Meeting frequency
  • Satisfaction (10%): NPS or CSAT
  • Growth signals (10%): Seat/usage expansion
  • Payment (10%): On-time history

Thresholds: 80+ healthy, 60-79 monitor, 40-59 at-risk, \x3C40 critical.

4. Create Onboarding Checklist

Week 1: Foundation (kickoff, tech setup, admin training, define 3 success outcomes) Week 2-3: Activation (user training, configure workflows, first quick win) Week 4: Handoff (retrospective, baseline metrics, ongoing cadence)

TTFV target: \x3C14 days SMB, \x3C30 days Enterprise.

5. QBR Template

45-minute agenda:

  1. Results recap with ROI numbers (10 min)
  2. Usage insights and underused features (10 min)
  3. Roadmap preview — relevant items only (5 min)
  4. Their priorities and business changes (15 min)
  5. Action items with owners and dates (5 min)

Rule: Never present a QBR without a quantified ROI number.

6. Churn Prevention Tiers

  • Tier 1 (score 60-79): Automated nudges, CSM alerted
  • Tier 2 (score 40-59): Personal outreach within 48h, 30-day recovery plan
  • Tier 3 (score \x3C40): Executive escalation within 24h, concession options ready

Early warnings: usage drop >30%, champion departure, competitor mentions, missed calls.

7. Expansion Playbook

Signals: health >80, seats >85% utilized, new use cases in QBRs, champion promoted.

Play Trigger Approach
Seat expansion >85% utilization Right-size conversation
Feature upsell Repeated workarounds Demo the real solution
New department Champion referral Joint intro meeting
Tier upgrade Hitting plan limits Show per-user savings
Multi-year Healthy + renewal due Discount for commitment

CSM expansion target: 20-30% of new ARR. NRR target: 110-120%.

8. CSM Capacity Model

  • Enterprise ($100K+ ACV): 10-15 accounts, high-touch, monthly QBRs
  • Mid-Market ($25-100K): 25-40 accounts, medium-touch, quarterly QBRs
  • SMB ($5-25K): 50-80 accounts, tech-touch + pooled, semi-annual QBRs
  • Self-serve (\x3C$5K): Automated digital-only

9. Output Deliverables

Generate for the user:

  • Customer lifecycle map
  • Health score model with weights
  • Onboarding checklist (customized to their product)
  • QBR template and prep checklist
  • Churn intervention playbook with escalation tiers
  • Expansion signal list and plays
  • CSM capacity plan
  • Metrics dashboard spec (NRR, GRR, TTFV, health coverage, QBR rate)

Key Metrics

Metric Target
Net Revenue Retention >110%
Gross Revenue Retention >90%
Time to First Value \x3C14d SMB / \x3C30d Enterprise
Health Score Coverage 100%
QBR Completion >85%
NPS >50

Resources

Usage Guidance
This skill is internally consistent and appears to be what it claims: a playbook and templates for Customer Success. Before installing or using it, (1) avoid pasting sensitive customer data into any automated agent prompts; (2) review the external links (afrexai-cto.github.io) before clicking—they may point to paid resources; (3) test the skill with non-sensitive example data to verify outputs; and (4) disable or remove the skill if it later asks for credentials, files, or unexpected network access. If you need higher assurance, ask the publisher for provenance or a contact and confirm the hosted resources are trustworthy.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: afrexai-customer-success Version: 1.1.0 The skill bundle contains standard metadata, a detailed customer success playbook in SKILL.md for the AI agent to follow, and a README.md for human users. The instructions in SKILL.md are purely informational and guide the agent to generate business strategy content. There is no evidence of data exfiltration, malicious execution, persistence mechanisms, or prompt injection attempts designed to subvert the agent's intended function. External URLs listed are for informational resources, not for the agent to interact with in a harmful manner.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the SKILL.md. All steps (onboarding, health scoring, QBRs, churn playbooks, capacity models) are coherent with a Customer Success playbook and do not require additional system access or credentials.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md contains only procedural guidance, question prompts for the user, templates, and deliverable lists. It does not instruct the agent to read arbitrary system files, access environment variables, or send data to unexpected endpoints.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — instruction-only skill. Nothing is downloaded or written to disk by the skill itself.
Credentials
The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths; the content likewise does not reference secrets or external auth. Requested outputs (templates, models) are proportional to the stated purpose.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and model invocation is allowed (platform default). The skill does not request permanent presence, nor does it attempt to modify other skills or system-wide settings.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install afrexai-customer-success
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /afrexai-customer-success
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
