The problem it solves

Support tickets are full of clues about which customers are ready to buy more, but nobody has time to read every ticket looking for those signals. Opportunities slip by because the people talking to customers aren't the same people responsible for growing the account.

Who it fits

Sales, account management, or customer success teams who want support tickets to surface revenue opportunities automatically.

How it works

  1. A new support ticket comes in through your help desk
  2. The customer's record is found or created in Zoho CRM and updated with the latest ticket date
  3. AI reviews the ticket alongside the customer's history for sentiment and upsell potential
  4. If the opportunity score passes your threshold, a summary and recommendation are emailed to the account manager
What you get

Tickets flagged with real upsell potential

Your account managers get a heads-up whenever a support ticket points to a genuine upsell opportunity.

What you get

An email alert with a customer summary and product recommendation, sent only when there's a real upsell opportunity.

What you need

A Zoho CRM account, an OpenAI API key, and a Gmail account, plus a help desk that can send ticket data.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
