MediaOps: Subscriber Retention & Churn Prediction

How GetPost Labs would build the retention specialist's workflow: subscribers going quiet flagged early by an AI agent with a drafted check-in, contact rules held in software, and every call made by your retention team. Churn reasons and outcomes logged on the same record.

Conceptual Prototype — Illustrating our approach

Executive Summary

The Problem: Subscribers rarely announce they are leaving. They stop opening, stop logging in, or ring to cancel when the price goes up. The retention specialist works from a CRM list and their own notes, so the quiet ones are often found too late and the reasons people leave are recorded differently every time.

The Solution: MediaOps gives the watching and drafting to AI agents, keeps do-not-contact flags and touchpoint timing as fixed rules in software, and leaves every conversation and offer with the retention specialist. Each at-risk subscriber has one record of signals, calls, reasons and outcomes.

The Outcome: The retention specialist starts the day with a ranked list and a drafted opener instead of a raw export, and the business learns why people leave from reasons logged the same way every time.

The Challenge

Understanding the problem space

"Recognise early warning signs such as missed services, declining engagement or dissatisfaction."

— A duty listed in a current Australian client retention specialist job ad (SEEK, September 2026)

Spotting who is drifting away is the core of the role. Across 7 current customer retention specialist ads, the same duties come up: watch engagement, reconnect with disengaged or at-risk customers, handle cancellation calls, keep structured 30, 60 and 90-day touchpoints, and record churn reasons and outcomes in the CRM.

The ads come from subscription, insurance, finance and care businesses, but the job has the same shape in a media or telecom subscriber team. The warning signs already exist somewhere — usage, billing, support tickets, the last conversation. When they sit in separate systems, the specialist works from a list and memory, and the quiet customers are found after they have gone.

The Solution

What GetPost Labs would build

Core Capabilities

Early Warning (AI agent)
Watches usage, billing and support signals and flags subscribers who are going quiet, with the reason it thinks so
Drafted Check-ins (AI agent)
Drafts a call opener or message that fits the subscriber's history and plan
Contact & Timing Rules
Do-not-contact flags, contact limits and 30, 60 and 90-day touchpoints held by fixed rules, not AI
Calls Stay With People
The retention specialist decides who to call and what to offer; the agent suggests, never changes a plan or a price
Churn Reasons Logged
Reason and outcome recorded from a set list after every call, so patterns are visible
Subscriber Record
Signals, calls, offers and outcomes kept together for each subscriber

Where the Time Comes Back

Calling, not searching

The retention specialist stops hunting through exports and starts with the subscribers the agent has flagged:

Finding At-Risk Subscribers

Before

Export a list from the CRM, sort by last login, and guess who to call first.

After

The agent has ranked the subscribers going quiet and noted why. The specialist starts with the ones that matter.

Preparing the Call

Before

Scroll through billing, support tickets and old notes before each call to work out what went wrong.

After

A one-screen summary and a drafted opener are waiting. The specialist reads it and picks up the phone.

Churn Reasons

Before

Reasons typed as free text, or not at all, so nobody can say why people leave.

After

Reason and outcome picked from a set list after each call, with a note. Patterns show up in the monthly report.

User Journey

An At-Risk Subscriber, Flagged to Outcome

Scenario: A subscriber on a monthly digital news plan has stopped opening the app and the newsletter, and last week's card payment failed.

1
SubscriberGoes Quiet

Stops opening the app and the newsletter. The monthly card payment fails

2
AI AgentSpot Warning Signs

Flags the subscriber as at risk: falling usage plus a failed payment. Notes they contacted support about a login problem last month

3
Rules in SoftwareContact Rules

Checks the subscriber has not opted out of calls and has not been contacted recently. Clears them for a call

4
AI AgentDraft Check-in

Drafts an opener that starts with the login problem, not a discount, and lists the plans they could move to

5
Retention SpecialistCall

Calls, sorts out the login with them and updates the card. Decides no discount is needed

6
Retention SpecialistLog Reason

Picks the reason (login problem) and the outcome (stayed) from the set list and adds a note

7
Rules in SoftwareRecord & Follow-up

Books the next touchpoint. Signals, call, reason and outcome kept on one record

Outcome: The subscriber stays, and the business learns one more real reason people drift away. The agent spotted and drafted; the specialist made the call.
