As with any business solution, it’s not uncommon for companies to feel trapped by their voice of the customer (VoC) vendor once they’ve already implemented VoC tools and attempted to put them into practice.

You are not powerless in the face of churn. There are almost always indicators that a customer is going to churn, which means that if identified early, a good Customer Success team can mitigate the risk and execute a successful recovery plan. Some churn is inevitable no matter what business model you employ, but it does not just occur randomly. Think of churn like a risk that can be negotiated like any other. .
