Nobody knew which customer was slipping away until they were already gone.

   What nobody knew

   Which of the 640 customers had drifted from their buying rhythm. The company found out six months later, in the books, or when a salesperson drove past and saw another company's truck at the door.

   What was looked at, and what wasn't

   The 25 big customers, from the memory of the salesperson who handles them. The other 615, never. There's no middle management watching the portfolio; salespeople sell.

   What showed up when we looked

   In the first run, March 2026, the system flagged 71 customers who had drifted from their rhythm. Between them they had bought ARS 184 million in the previous twelve months, 9% of the year's revenue. Twenty-three hadn't bought in more than 90 days and nobody had called them.

   What decision changed

   The five salespeople got their list as tasks in the CRM, and the owner set up a Tuesday call round. It turned out 14 of the 71 had left over a one-off December delivery delay; they came back with an apology and a discount on the next order. Of the 71 customers with a task, 29 bought again within 30 days. Revenue reactivated in 90 days: ARS 52 million.

   What we built

   The customer base and the sales from the management system come in every day. Each customer is compared against their own rhythm, not against an average: the one who buys every 20 days and the one who buys every 90 are measured differently. When someone goes 1.5 times their rhythm without buying, the system creates a task in the CRM for the salesperson who handles them: who to call, how long since they bought, what they used to buy, what the last conversation was. The salesperson makes the call. The system doesn't send messages.

   How it's measured from here on

   Sales at risk (ARS from the last 12 months for customers who've drifted from their rhythm), tasks closed within 2 days, 30-day reactivation. The owner looks at it Monday mornings.
