Reference: assets/qbr_template.md
Scripts
- health_score_calculator.py
Purpose: Multi-dimensional customer health scoring with trend analysis and segment-aware benchmarking.
Dimensions and Weights:
Dimension Weight Metrics
Usage 30% Login frequency, feature adoption, DAU/MAU ratio
Engagement 25% Support ticket volume, meeting attendance, NPS/CSAT
Support 20% Open tickets, escalation rate, avg resolution time
Relationship 25% Executive sponsor engagement, multi-threading depth, renewal sentiment
Classification:
-
Green (75-100): Healthy -- customer achieving value
-
Yellow (50-74): Needs attention -- monitor closely
-
Red (0-49): At risk -- immediate intervention required
Usage:
python scripts/health_score_calculator.py customer_data.json python scripts/health_score_calculator.py customer_data.json --format json
- churn_risk_analyzer.py
Purpose: Identify at-risk accounts with behavioral signal detection and tier-based intervention recommendations.

Best Practices
-
Score regularly: Run health scoring weekly for Enterprise, bi-weekly for Mid-Market, monthly for SMB
-
Act on trends, not snapshots: A declining Green is more urgent than a stable Yellow
-
Combine signals: Use all three scripts together for a complete customer picture
-
Calibrate thresholds: Adjust segment benchmarks based on your product and industry
-
Document interventions: Track what actions you took and outcomes for playbook refinement
-
Prepare with data: Run scripts before every QBR and executive meeting
Limitations
-
No real-time data: Scripts analyze point-in-time snapshots from JSON input files
-
No CRM integration: Data must be exported manually from your CRM/CS platform
-
Deterministic only: No predictive ML -- scoring is algorithmic based on weighted signals
-
Threshold tuning: Default thresholds are industry-standard but may need calibration for your business
-
Revenue estimates: Expansion revenue estimates are approximations based on usage patterns
