ApproveThis manages your Churn Buster Integration approvals.

When Churn Fighting Meets Approval Automation

Here's the ugly truth: customer retention teams waste 12 hours a month chasing down approvals for discount exceptions, campaign changes, and recovery strategies. Meanwhile, finance teams get stuck playing spreadsheet detective trying to track who approved what. Enter Churn Buster and ApproveThis - the tag team that actually talks to each other.

Churn Buster does the dirty work of hunting down failed payments and running recovery campaigns. ApproveThis cuts through the approval chaos with structured workflows. Connect them through Zapier, and you've got a system where financial guardrails automatically meet customer retention tactics - no middle managers required.

Why This Combo Doesn't Suck

Most approval tools treat every request like a TPS report. ApproveThis actually understands that recovering a $50K account isn't the same as approving office snacks. When paired with Churn Buster's real-time payment recovery data, you get three concrete advantages:

Money Talks, BS Walks

Set approval thresholds that auto-route requests based on the actual dollar amount at risk. A $50 failed payment? Maybe it auto-approves a standard email sequence. A $5,000 enterprise account? That shit gets bumped straight to the VP of Customer Success with all the context attached.

Approval Chains That Don't Break

Churn Buster flags a high-value account at risk on Friday at 4:55 PM. ApproveThis automatically reroutes the approval to the designated backup because Karen from Accounting is already halfway to Cabo. No more "waiting for Karen" memes in Slack.

Audit Trails That Won't Make Compliance Cry

Every recovered account, denied discount request, or escalation gets logged with full context. When the board asks why you approved a 20% discount for that one client who threatened to leave, you can actually show them the calculated LTV analysis attached to the approval.

Real Companies Using This Without Firing People

The SaaS Company That Stopped Leaving Money on the Table

GrowthLab SaaS (120 employees) used to have a "spreadsheet of shame" for tracking discount approvals on at-risk accounts. Now, when Churn Buster detects a cancellation attempt from any customer paying over $10K/month:

• Auto-generates an approval request with LTV calculations
• Routes to CRO if discount >15%, else to account exec
• Updates Salesforce whether approved or denied

Result: 23% more recovered accounts, 9 fewer hours/week spent chasing approvals.

The E-Commerce Player That Fixed Their Refund Circus

Boulder Gear Co. (450 employees) was hemorrhaging margins from random refund approvals. Their new setup:

• Churn Buster flags subscription cancellations with 6+ month histories
• ApproveThis routes refund offers based on customer lifetime value
• Auto-approves 10% discounts, escalates 25%+ offers to CFO

Outcome: 17% reduction in full cancellations, $240K saved in unnecessary discounts last quarter.

Setting This Up Without Losing a Day

Connect Churn Buster to ApproveThis in 3 steps that even your non-techy sales lead can handle:

1. Create Your Zap: In Zapier, choose Churn Buster as the trigger app. Pick your poison - failed payment alerts, recovery successes, cancellation triggers.
2. Map the Data: Pull key details into ApproveThis - customer LTV, failed amount, recovery campaign type. Pro tip: Use calculated fields to auto-determine approval thresholds.
3. Set Escalation Rules: Build if/then paths in ApproveThis. Example: Over $5K? CFO + CRO approval needed. Under $500? Auto-approve with manager CC.

Need specifics? Here's the cheat code:

1. When Churn Buster detects a failed payment → 2. Zapier creates ApproveThis request with customer details → 3. Approvers get email/Slack with one-click approve/deny → 4. Decision logs back in Churn Buster.

The Nerd Stuff You Actually Need to Know

While the sales team is high-fiving over recovered accounts, your IT crew will appreciate these details:

License-Free Approvals

External partners can approve requests without needing Churn Buster logins. Clients, vendors, or that consultant who keeps complaining about your systems - they just get an email with approve/deny buttons.

Two-Way Sync

Approve decisions don't just disappear into the void. Approved discounts auto-log in Churn Buster, denied requests trigger follow-up workflows, and everything timestamps in your CRM.

Mobile-Proof

Approvers can crush requests from their lock screen. No apps to download, no passwords to reset. Even your boomer board member can handle it.

Why This Beats Your Current Shitshow

Shared Excel files with version conflicts and zero audit trails. Enough said.

The All-in-One Platform
