Expansion & revenue

Upsell

Moving a customer up to a higher-tier offer.

Definition

Upsell consists of moving an existing customer to a higher plan, with more volume, seats or features. It is a key driver of expansion revenue, triggered at the right moment by signals of usage maturity.

Why it matters

An upsell offered too early irritates, too late leaves revenue on the table. The Customer Success Manager spots the moment of value, the Account Manager leads the negotiation.

How Phano helps you

Phano detects accounts ready for an upsell from their usage and growth signals, not at the mercy of the calendar.
