Retarget every trial that dropped off

Your Manager turns dead trials into a recurring revenue line.

You'd think this needs a marketing ops hire — Tycoon Agent runs the entire win-back loop on Stripe, PostHog, and your existing Mailchimp.

The short answer

Tycoon Agent retargets trial drop-offs by joining your Stripe customer list against PostHog activation events, isolating users who started a trial but never paid, and segmenting them by where they fell off — never logged in after signup, used the product but didn't hit the aha moment, hit the aha moment but didn't enter card. For each segment she writes a different win-back email: "have you tried X yet" for the first, a feature reveal for the second, a discount or extended trial for the third. She sends via Mailchimp, suppresses anyone who unsubscribed, tracks opens and clicks, and routes anyone who clicks back into a sales sequence or auto-extends their trial. Typical recovery: 3-7% of dropped trials reactivate, and recovered users have 1.4× higher LTV than fresh signups.

How Tycoon Agent actually does it

  1. Pull and join the data

    Stripe trial-started events ∩ PostHog session events ∩ Stripe paid customers (excluded). Output: list of trial drop-offs with last activity date and depth of usage.

  2. Segment by drop-off stage

    Stage 1: signed up, never logged in. Stage 2: logged in, low usage. Stage 3: hit aha, didn't pay. Stage 4: paid once, churned. Each gets a distinct message.

  3. Write segment-specific copy

    Stage 1: re-onboarding nudge. Stage 2: feature reveal + 1-min Loom. Stage 3: 25% off first 3 months. Stage 4: "what would have made you stay" survey + offer.

  4. Send and suppress

    Stagger sends across 5 days to avoid inbox flooding. Honor unsubscribes. Skip anyone who churned in the last 14 days (too soon).

  5. Route reactivations

    Click → trial auto-extended 7 days + slack ping to you. Reply → routed to your inbox for personal touch. Conversion → tagged "win-back" in Salesforce for LTV tracking.

Segmenting: - **Stage 1 (signed up, never logged in)**: 487 — usually fixable with a single re-onboarding email + Loom. - **Stage 2 (logged in, low usage)**: 612 — feature they didn't discover is the unlock. - **Stage 3 (hit aha, no card)**: 298 — pricing objection, offer 25% off first 3 months. - **Stage 4 (paid, churned)**: 138 — "what would have made you stay" survey before any offer.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Clear answers about wallet credit, usage, subscriptions, and how Tycoon charges for work.

What if some trials are too old to retarget?

Tycoon Agent caps the lookback at 180 days by default — anyone older typically has zero recall of your product and reactivation rates drop below 1%. You can override ("go back 12 months") but Tycoon Agent will warn that incremental ROI is usually negative past 6 months.

What if I don't have PostHog set up?

Tycoon Agent works with whatever event source you have — Mixpanel, Amplitude, raw server logs, or even just Stripe events. With Stripe alone she can do Stage 1 and 4 well; Stage 2 and 3 need product event data to identify the aha moment correctly.

Can I tweak the discount or offer per segment?

Yes — Tycoon Agent proposes defaults (25% off, free month, extended trial) but waits for your sign-off before sending. You can override per segment, e.g. "no discount on Stage 3, just a Loom from me" — she rewrites that segment's copy in 30 seconds.

What if someone replies "please remove me"?

Tycoon Agent honors it instantly — adds them to your suppression list across all future Tycoon Agent-managed campaigns (not just this one) and confirms in Lark. Your Mailchimp unsubscribe link is also embedded in every email per CAN-SPAM/GDPR compliance.
