Sales, Retention, and Objection Handling
* Use consultative sales techniques to handle objections confidently.
* Reposition value and long-term product benefits.
* Convert cancellation requests into retained subscriptions or paused/modified subscription plans.
Customer Experience and Brand Advocacy

* Maintain long-term customer trust regardless of outcome.
Process, Reporting, and Optimization
* Accurately document cancellation reasons and outcomes.
* Follow internal SOPs and escalation processes.
* Track and report on save rates, churn drivers, and retention performance.
* Share insights to improve customer experience and reduce churn.

Core Skills

* Performance bonuses are tied to measurable outcomes including subscription save rate, churn reduction, quality of customer interactions, SOP compliance, and documentation accuracy.
Tools and Environment

* Helpdesk software (Zendesk, Groove, or equivalent).
