PLG Use Case Recipe

NPS-Driven Retention Campaigns


Not all feedback is created equal. When a user gives you an NPS score, they’re telling you exactly how they feel about your product — but unless you act on it quickly and meaningfully, that valuable signal goes to waste.

In this use case recipe, we’re showing you how to take immediate action on NPS feedback to boost retention, reduce churn, and engage your happiest users.

Ingredients You'll Need

Mixpanel

For behavioral analytics and closed-loop retention insights

Hubspot

For CRM, segmentation, and triggered communications

userflow

Userflow

For collecting in-app NPS feedback

Recipe Directions

01

Collect NPS responses with Userflow

Define what “high intent” looks like. Examples:

- Visited pricing page 3+ times
- Invited teammates
- Hit a usage limit on a free plan

Then, create a Mixpanel cohort for users who match that behavior

02

Sync NPS data from Userflow to HubSpot

Automatically pass scores and comments to HubSpot.

Save them as properties on each user’s profile.

Now HubSpot knows who’s happy and who’s not.

03

Trigger retention workflows in HubSpot

Create workflows in HubSpot based on score type:

- Promoters (9–10): Send a thank-you and ask for a review
- Passives (7–8): Send a helpful resource or check-in email
- Detractors (0–6): Open a support ticket or trigger a winback message

Workflow in Hubspot

04

Track and Analyze NPS events in Mixpanel

Send the NPS info to Mixpanel and track the data.

Now that you have your feedback, it's time to analyze and look for patterns:

- Do promoters stick around or upgrade?
- Do detractors churn less if you follow up fast?
- Do passives return after your email?

Use that data to improve your campaigns

Serving suggestions (Pro tips)

  • Segment a bit further than just Promoter/Passive/Detractor. Layer in usage behavior, plan tier, or lead source to tailor retention efforts even more.
  • Perfect your timing. Test different moments for collecting NPS to see when users give the most helpful feedback
