You'll learn how to: Assess the health of a client relationship, spot churn signals early, and plan retention actions.
Time: 10-15 minutes per session, end-to-end.
Prereqs: You have at least one active contact in your account. Coaching enabled on your plan.
When to use
- Monthly or quarterly account reviews: "Is this account at risk?"
- After a support issue or contract negotiation: "Did we just damage the relationship?"
- Before renewing or upselling: "Should I be worried?"
- When a contact goes quiet: "What does the silence mean?"
The session produces a health score, a list of early-warning signals, and a set of concrete actions to strengthen the relationship.
Steps
- At the bottom-left of the sidebar, toggle to Strategy mode.
- Click Coaching.
- The Coaching hub shows 12 canvases grouped by category.
- Click Client Health Check (under Relationships & Accounts).
- A setup screen asks you to pick the account:
- Your current accounts (recommended).
- Pick a specific contact in an account you want to assess.
- Pick one. Click Start.
- The coach opens with a brief intro: what this session is for and what data it sees.
- The chat-style session begins. Typical flow:
- The AI summarises what it knows: revenue, deal history, recent interactions, and signals.
- It asks you direct questions about satisfaction, engagement, and any friction points you're aware of.
- It highlights at-risk signals: quiet periods, unresponded emails, job changes in key contacts, competitive mentions.
- It generates a health score: green (stable), yellow (monitor), or red (at risk).
- It produces a list of retention actions tailored to the account's situation.
- Save / export the output. Suggested actions:
- Pin it to the account canvas for quarterly tracking.
- Share with your team or account owner.
- Use it to guide your next account touch.
What's in the typical output
- Overall account health score and trend (improving, stable, declining).
- List of positive signals (high engagement, growth, positive feedback).
- List of warning signals (long silence, job changes, support escalations, competitive activity).
- Timeline of recent touchpoints and their sentiment.
- A prioritised list of 3-5 retention actions with recommended timing.
- Talking points for your next conversation with the account.
After the session
Act on the retention plan. Log all touchpoints (calls, emails, deliverables) on the account canvas; the next health check will show the impact of your actions.
If something goes wrong
- Symptom: "Client Health Check canvas isn't in the Coaching hub." → Fix: Your plan doesn't include Coaching. Check avatar > Settings > Account.
- Symptom: "Account picker is empty." → Fix: You have no active accounts or contacts in Nynch yet. Add at least one, then retry.
- Symptom: "Health score feels wrong." → Fix: The coach only sees what's in Nynch. If you have relationship details not yet logged (informal conversations, feedback from others), add them to the account or contact notes and retry.
- Symptom: "Warning signals don't match my experience." → Fix: Silence isn't always bad. Add context to your account or contact notes explaining the situation (e.g. "Contact on sabbatical until Q3"), then retry for a more accurate assessment.
- Symptom: "Session ended without producing a score." → Fix: The coach needs you to answer its targeted questions to assess health. If you skipped them, restart and engage with the questions.
