When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it on any account already running a native HubSpot NPS survey where detractor responses are not consistently followed up on.
  • Use it as the fast, contact-level alert; pair it with renewal-expansion-004 for a rolled-up account risk score once several signals exist.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if the NPS survey is a plain custom form rather than a native Feedback Survey. Custom forms do not auto-classify responses as Promoter/Passive/Detractor, so the enrollment criteria below will not exist.
  • Do not treat a single detractor response as certain churn. Use it to trigger a conversation, not an automatic account status change.
