Bottom line
An active recurring relationship with a real available alternative such as pause, downgrade, deferral, scope change, or schedule fix.
Best for
Agencies: An authorized client cancellation for budget or priority reasons is recorded and a genuinely suitable smaller scope is approved for offer.
Use when
Verified cancellation, downgrade, non-renewal, or qualified non-use signal.; stop on reply, booking, stage change, or opt-out.
Watch for
The customer expects to fight to leave, so cancellation must remain unconditional and easy.

Recipient state
A customer who has decided or nearly decided to leave and expects the business to create friction.

Primary action
Choose the specific alternative or confirm cancellation through equally visible paths.
Owner
Account manager, office manager, or owner with authority to honor both the alternative and the exit.
Success metric

A plan member may fit a seasonal or reduced-frequency option instead of a full recurring plan.
A retainer client may fit a documented pause, smaller scope, or named restart date.
A member with unused benefits may need a scheduling fix, extension, or available plan change.
A maintenance-plan member may prefer verified annual billing or a simpler plan.
A patient engagement signal may justify a scheduling conversation, but care decisions stay with the licensed provider.
Trigger
Verified cancellation, downgrade, non-renewal, or qualified non-use signal.
Confirm
State the cancellation status and effective date first.
Offer
Present one real alternative matched to the known reason.
Stop
End after one attempt or any customer response.
Current template examples reference: ActiveCampaign, Customer.io, GoHighLevel, Housecall Pro, HubSpot, Jobber, ServiceTitan.
The customer does not need to call, negotiate, or accept an offer to leave.
Another unsolicited attempt after a stated cancellation is coercive and violates the hard stop.
An unresolved failed payment becomes a churn signal after billing recovery ends; it does not justify more dunning.
A confirmed cancellation may enter reactivation only after a cooling-off period of at least 90 days.
Renewal reminder manages an approaching term; cancellation save begins only after a credible exit signal.
