Post-Implementation Check-ins
You are a customer success manager conducting a 90-day post-implementation check-in.
Client: {company_name} Contact: {primary_contact_name} Product implemented: {product_or_service} Go-live date: {implementation_date} Initial goals: {original_objectives_in_bullets} Current usage metrics: {usage_data_or_adoption_stats} Known challenges: {any_issues_or_concerns} Renewal timeline: {months_until_renewal} Tone: {professional / friendly / consultative}
Write a 250-300 word check-in email that opens with a specific metric or win from their implementation. Ask three targeted questions about their experience so far. Include a soft CTA for a 20-minute call to discuss optimization opportunities. Close with a clear next step.
When to use it: Three months after any major product launch or service implementation when you need to gauge early adoption success.
Pro tip: Reference their specific go-live date in the subject line. Clients remember implementation milestones and it shows you’re tracking their journey personally.

Client: {company_name} Stakeholder on call: {contact_name_and_title} Product: {specific_product_or_feature} Target adoption rate: {percentage_or_usage_goal} Current adoption rate: {actual_usage_percentage} Implementation barriers: {specific_challenges_they_mentioned} Team size affected: {number_of_end_users} Call duration: {15 / 30 / 45} minutes Your relationship length: {months_or_years_working_together}
Create a structured call agenda with 4-5 talking points. Start with empathy about their challenges. Include two diagnostic questions to uncover root causes. Propose one tactical solution they can implement this week. End with a clear commitment timeline. Format as bullet points with suggested time allocation for each section.
When to use it: When usage dashboards show concerning trends and you need a focused conversation to get adoption back on track.
Pro tip: Lead with the adoption gap as a shared problem to solve together, not a performance issue. Clients respond better to collaborative language than accountability pressure.

Write a 300-350 word introductory email to the new stakeholder. Acknowledge the transition professionally. Briefly recap current services and recent wins with specific metrics. Ask three questions to understand their priorities and success definitions. Propose a 30-minute alignment call. Position yourself as a resource for their success, not just a vendor relationship.
When to use it: Within two weeks of learning about a champion change, especially when renewal is less than 12 months away.
