What it does

A single bad support experience can tank a renewal. This workflow listens for escalated or high-priority Zendesk tickets, checks whether the customer is approaching renewal, and if so pings the renewal owner with the ticket details and the deal stakes attached.

When to use it

Run this when support and sales operate in separate tools and renewal owners find out about fires too late. It connects a support escalation directly to the person whose number is on the line, in real time.

How it works

  1. 1A Zendesk ticket update marked escalated or high priority triggers the workflow.
  2. 2It matches the requester's domain to a HubSpot company and reads the renewal date and ARR.
  3. 3A logic step checks whether the renewal is within 90 days; if not, it stops.
  4. 4For in-window accounts it composes an alert with the ticket link, ARR, and renewal date.
  5. 5The alert is sent as a direct message to the renewal owner in Slack.
