What is it and why are we using this Billing ?
When an account wish to churn for any reason except Out of business, proposing him the dormant process is one way to get a 2nd chance! (of course it is the last option you can offer to the partner).
This option is a free MP & commissions fees for 3 months. The objective behind is to get more trust from the partner and offer him more visibility for free during a short period.
Also it allows us to have more cost-efficient strategy on the acquisition side (concerning the partners that come back after a churn).
AM Process
You need to start with a Churn request received, as you are switching the billing plan you will select
Recovered - With plan update
This action will automatically create an opportunity already client. You’ll have to select “Downgrade” as you are reducing the partner fees at Treatwell without churning him.
Then the product that you’ll select will be FR - PRO - DORMANT for a PRO venue or FR - CONNECT - DORMANT for a connect venue.
Once applied you’ll have to fill all the mandatory fields for an opportunity then close won as usual.
Once done, don’t forget to :
Turn the payment method into PAV only
Add to yourself at least one win back task in order to come back to the partner and decide if the partner stay or definitely churn.
