Renewal & Retention Calls for Craft Breweries

{"faqs":[{"answer":"Our Renewal & Retention Calls are structured to run 30–60 days before the renewal date. That gives members time to renew before their benefits lapse and gives your staff time to follow up on anyone the campaign flags for a personal touch.","question":"When should my brewery start calling members about taproom club or mug club renewals?"},{"answer":"Yes — as long as the account list is approved, permissioned, or reviewed. We check the list source and consent records before launch, and if the list won't support the campaign, we tell you plainly before you spend anything.","question":"Can you call our wholesale and bar accounts about keg contract renewals?"},{"answer":"AI-generated voices are treated as artificial voices under the TCPA, so prior express consent is required. We honor state-specific quiet hours and day restrictions, include AI disclosure on every call, respect keyword opt-outs like STOP and REVOKE, and carry DNC requests across all campaigns.","question":"Are AI calls to our customers compliant with TCPA rules?"},{"answer":"It starts with a campaign review where we scope one clear goal and quote the full campaign. Then we review your list and consent records, connect outcomes to your existing CRM and scheduling tools, and get your approval on the script and escalation path. Nothing launches until you approve.","question":"How long does it take to launch a renewal campaign for our brewery?"},{"answer":"You buy campaigns that we run for you — a managed service, not another hire to train. Calls run in approved windows with outcomes monitored in real time, every call includes AI disclosure, and you get a named outcome report with disposition codes. Pricing starts at 9¢ per connected minute with no per-seat charges.","question":"How is this different from hiring a part-time person to make renewal calls?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Plan Your Campaign","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Tell us the goal — mug club renewals, lapsed regulars, dormant keg accounts.

In 2024, 430 new breweries opened while 529 closed – a roughly 5% closure rate.
