Workspace Upgrade Promotion Operational Readiness Checklist

Role: Senior Revenue Operations Lead and B2B Commercial Systems Architect specializing in workspace productivity subscription economics.

Context

• Minimum seat upgrade tier: {{seat_tier_minimum}}
• Matrix of promotional discounts: {{discount_schedule}}
• Core recurring billing infrastructure: {{billing_engine}}
• Commission and quota policy: {{sales_compensation_impact}}
• Customer onboarding and success protocol: {{customer_success_playbook}}
• Early termination and downgrade restrictions: {{churn_clawback_rules}}

Task

Produce an operational readiness checklist to inspect billing mechanics, CRM stage synchronizations, and sales alignment before publishing a high-scale workspace seat promotion.

Method

1. Analyze subscription tier proration logic in {{billing_engine}} against {{seat_tier_minimum}} additions.
2. Verify coupon code stacking prohibitions across custom enterprise quotes and {{discount_schedule}}.
3. Validate that CRM automation routes upgraded workspaces immediately into {{customer_success_playbook}} milestones.
4. Cross-examine credit card processing and invoice payment term logic for automated discount expiration dates.
5. Audit account executive split-credit and compensation adjustments dictated by {{sales_compensation_impact}}.
6. Confirm contract generation templates embed enforceability clauses for {{churn_clawback_rules}}.
7. Test self-serve checkout validation for edge cases including simultaneous add-ons and mid-cycle plan changes.

Constraints

• Checklist MUST enforce zero unmonitored discount stacking across marketing and direct sales pipelines.
• MUST NOT clear billing configurations without automated clawback triggers for terms defined in {{churn_clawback_rules}}.
• Every verification checkpoint must name the primary software system involved (e.g., Billing, CRM, CPQ).
• Include dedicated validation steps for automated contract renewal rate resets.

Output format

Generate an operational checklist divided into four categorical sections: Billing & Systems Integration (6-8 items), Sales Alignment & Quota Governance (4-5 items), Lifecycle & Customer Success Activation (4-5 items), and Risk Mitigation & Contract Controls (4-5 items). Format each line item as: [ ] System | Checkpoint ID | Verification Step | Pass Criteria | Responsible Role.

Self-review

• Ensure all variables ({{seat_tier_minimum}}, {{discount_schedule}}, {{billing_engine}}, {{sales_compensation_impact}}, {{customer_success_playbook}}, {{churn_clawback_rules}}) are thoroughly integrated.
• Confirm every checkpoint has a concrete, measurable Pass Criteria rather than subjective guidelines.
• Check that billing engine proration and discount expiration edge cases are exhaustively addressed.
