About This Automation

Membership renewal and upgrade prompts are currently sent manually by sales staff who scan spreadsheets, compose emails, and send them individually. This repetitive work consumes hours weekly and often results in missed renewal windows or inconsistent messaging.

Automation identifies expiring memberships, evaluates each member for renewal or upgrade offers, and sends personalized emails instantly. Sales staff focus only on high-value conversations with engaged members.

Key features:
Scan membership database weekly to identify members within 30 days of expiry
Evaluate member tier and engagement history to recommend renewal or upgrade offers
Send personalized renewal and upgrade emails automatically to all candidates
Track email opens, clicks, and replies in real time
Alert sales staff instantly when a member engages with a renewal prompt
Log all renewal communications and engagement data for follow-up prioritization

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Membership Expiry Date Approachestrigger

The automation platform checks the membership database daily and identifies members whose expiry date is 30, 14, or 7 days away.

2. Fetch Member & Tier Data

The automation retrieves the member's name, email, phone, membership tier, and renewal history from the database.

3. Determine Offer Type

The automation evaluates the member's tier, engagement history, and previous upsell attempts to decide whether to send a standard renewal prompt or an upgrade offer.

4. Send Renewal Email

The automation sends a personalized renewal or upgrade email, with the member's name, tier, and a call-to-action link.

5. Log Contact

The automation records the email send date, recipient, offer type, and email ID as a contact activity.

6. Monitor Email Engagement

The automation tracks opens and clicks on the renewal email and updates the contact record with engagement data.

7. Alert Sales Team

When a member opens the email or clicks the renewal link, the automation sends a notification to the sales team with the member's name and engagement type, prompting immediate follow-up.
