RetainEngine

Sell RetainEngine when the buyer keeps paying to acquire customers but has no real system for keeping them, growing them, or bringing them back. This is the lane for health scoring, win-back automation, retention reporting, and churn pressure relief.

“If the buyer is paying to acquire people and then letting them leak out the back door, this is the fix. They are buying a retention system, not just a few emails.”

Who to target

Use these buyer pictures to stop sounding generic. Each one makes the service easier to sell on a call or in the field.
Best Fit

Subscription and membership businesses

Use this when the operator has growth on the front end but churn on the back end.

Best Fit

SaaS with churn pressure

Teams losing users monthly and reacting too late every time.

Best Fit

Acquisition-heavy operators

Businesses spending hard on paid traffic while doing nothing structured to protect the customers they already won.

What the client is buying

The client is not just buying a category label. They are buying depth, control, and a cleaner operating reality.

Core delivery

  • Lifecycle mapping, journey audit, and structured health scoring.
  • Automated retention and win-back sequences across channels.
  • CRM, billing, and product usage integration depending on tier.
  • Retention dashboards, cohort views, and revenue reporting.
  • Playbooks, optimization windows, and support matched to tier.

How to explain it

“If the buyer is paying to acquire people and then letting them leak out the back door, this is the fix. They are buying a retention system, not just a few emails.”

Exact upfront math

Use the deposit, not the full contract value, when explaining your immediate project-side payout. This page uses the 46% AE deposit model.

Scenarios you can actually picture

Use concrete buyer pictures. New contractors close better when they can name the buyer, the problem, and the likely close shape.
Scenario A

Membership drop-off fix

A membership operator signs people up but loses them after the first 60 days.

Likely close: RetainEngine Gateway or Suite.

Your upfront: $4,692.00 to $8,004.00.

Scenario B

Subscription churn rescue

A SaaS team has real churn, zero structured health scoring, and no intervention sequences.

Likely close: RetainEngine Suite.

Your upfront: $8,004.00.

Scenario C

Enterprise lifecycle rebuild

A larger operator wants predictive churn, dashboards, cohorts, and full multi-system retention logic.

Likely close: RetainEngine Flagship.

Your upfront: $15,456.00.

Good stacks to pair with it

This service gets easier to sell when the contractor can picture the adjacent lane that makes the buyer's system more complete.

RetainEngine + PulseWire

Use this when the buyer needs lifecycle logic and the communication delivery lane working together.

RetainEngine + InsightForge

Use this when the buyer wants dashboards proving whether retention work is moving revenue.

RetainEngine + CheckoutForge

Use this when the buyer needs both conversion on the front end and retention after purchase.

Add-on reopen angle

This gives the contractor a believable path beyond the first deposit.

The live page also lists a Predictive Churn Model ($14,000), Loyalty / Rewards Program ($11,000), and NPS / CSAT Integration ($6,500). This is a good service for follow-on expansion after the buyer sees their first retention wins.

A simple way to say it on the phone

You do not need to explain every deliverable. Sell the business outcome first, then justify the number with the build depth.
