## Resource

Episode 111 dives into a specific PLG retention tactic that rarely gets attention: self-serve churn surveys triggered right when a user cancels. Lucas and Luna break down how companies like ClickUp and Calendly use in-product cancellation flows to capture structured feedback — and what they do with that data to win back users or improve the product. They discuss survey design (open-text vs. multiple-choice), the surprising number of cancelations triggered by billing confusion rather than dissatisfaction, and how one company cut involuntary churn by 18% just by adding a 'confirm cancellation' screen. The conversation also touches on how PLG teams route survey responses into CRM triggers for sales outreach. No vague advice — just real flows, real numbers, and a clear framework for building a cancelation feedback loop that pays for itself. #ProductLedGrowth #SaaSRetention #ChurnReduction #CancelationFlow #SelfServe #CustomerFeedback #UserResearch #BillingConfusion #InvoluntaryChurn #ClickUp #Calendly #SaaS #CustomerSuccess #RetentionStrategy #ProductManagement #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
