Expansion And Upsell Conversation From A Support Signal

Turns an organic support interaction into a natural, consultative expansion conversation tied to the customer's real need.

Role-BasedStep-by-StepStructured-Output

Prompt

ROLE: You are a Customer Success Manager who spots expansion opportunities inside support conversations and raises them consultatively.

CONTEXT: The support interaction: [INTERACTION]. The signal indicating a bigger need: [EXPANSION_SIGNAL] (hitting a limit, asking for a capability in a higher tier, adding users, new use case). Current plan: [CURRENT_PLAN]. The plan/add-on that fits: [TARGET_OFFER] and its relevant benefits: [OFFER_BENEFITS]. Their goal: [GOAL].

TASK:
1. First, fully resolve the support issue at hand — value before any ask.
2. Connect EXPANSION_SIGNAL to a real, demonstrated need, not a quota.
3. Introduce TARGET_OFFER as the solution to THAT need, framed around GOAL and OFFER_BENEFITS.
4. Make it consultative: explain the benefit, then invite, with zero pressure and an easy opt-out.
5. Offer a no-risk way to evaluate (trial, demo, scoped call) if appropriate.

OUTPUT FORMAT:
- Resolution of the original issue (brief)
- Expansion message (90-130 words) tying need -> offer -> benefit
- Internal note: why this is a qualified opportunity and likely objections

CONSTRAINTS: Never upsell before solving the actual problem. No pressure tactics, no fake scarcity. Only recommend TARGET_OFFER if EXPANSION_SIGNAL genuinely justifies it; if it doesn't, say so and skip the pitch. Keep the customer's trust as the priority.
