The only guide on QBRs you’ll ever need to read.August 17, 2021Resources
QBR stands for Quarterly Business Review. Its a quarterly touchpoint with your customer where the intention is to review the impact of your product on the customers business as well as discuss future goals.
Its a crucial part of any Customer Success program, because it ensures a regularly recurring conversation around the value the vendor is delivering, and if used right, can ensure a smooth renewal process.
A QBR agenda usually includes one or more of the following items:
A QBR is NOT:
Quarterly Business Reviews should never be self-serving. They should be all about the customer and whether or not your product and services are enabling them to achieve their goals.
QBRs can deliver a number of benefits for both you and the customer.
Businesses are an ever-shifting environment, and they operate in ever-shifting markets. So it should be no surprise that a customers goals for your product would also evolve over time.
When you conduct a QBR as a CSM, you should discuss what those new goals are. You might even broach the subject of changing the goals yourself, if you notice that the customer isnt using the product the way youd originally discussed.
Now that both sides are aware of and acknowledge the new goals, it will become easier to draft an action plan about how to accomplish them.
Customers can sometimes get so caught up in the daily grind that they lose perspective of your product. Sure, they may notice that things are running a little more smoothly, and someone may share the occasional positive feedback, but your customer contact might not be able to see the scale of what theyve achieved with your product until you point it out to them.
The QBR is a great opportunity to show the customer how much value theyre getting from your product at scale. While individual success stories are important, you should show them the impact to their organization as a whole. This requires the use of metrics, survey data, and whatever other key performance indicators (KPIs) that are available to you.
Customer Success is just as much about relationships as it is about the actual product. Without regular face-time with your customer (virtual or otherwise), you run the risk of losing touch with them and thinning the flow of conversation.
A QBR is a great opportunity to stay connected with them, as well as get in front of other important people in their organization.
For the customer, the benefit is that they can place a face on the product. It personalizes the partnership and reassures them there are humans on the other end of the line. They will also know who to reach out to in the sự kiện they have questions or something goes wrong. If you can maintain a strong relationship, it can eventually lead to an upsell opportunity.
Have you ever been taken by surprise when a customer churns?
Turns out these customers had been suffering in silence for quite some time, and you didnt pick up on it.
More often than not, those churns couldve been predicted (and prevented) if youd been conducting QBRs.
Quarterly Business Reviews can function as an early-warning system to detect problems in an account. The customer will have regular opportunities to bring up product feedback, problems, and obstacles, and you will have ample time to address them before renewal.
The term QBR is used in different contexts, not just for customer success. And while the difference between a Customer Success QBR and an American Football QBR (Quarterback) is pretty obvious (I hope), the difference between this and EBRs or Sales QBRs is pretty subtle.
QBR stands for Quarterly Business Review, while EBR stands for Executive Business Review.
In a Customer Success context, they both basically refer to the same thing (a regular meeting to review product value), but the EBR is leaning heavily towards the top of the company org chart.
It isnt just the attendee list that defines an EBR, though. The EBR agenda places a stronger focus on executive-level concerns and less emphasis on day-to-day operations. It đơn hàng more with overall strategy than tactical considerations.
Customer Success isnt the only one that conducts QBRs, which can be confusing because an internal Sales QBR, while similarly named, covers an entirely different topic.
In Sales circles, a Sales QBR is where the Sales team comes together internally to review their accounts and provide a revenue forecast. There are still performance reviews and strategic planning involved, but its more inward-facing in nature; getting salespeople to improve.
In a Customer Success QBR, all of the attention is focused on improving the customers results. Its about helping the customer achieve their goal, which will eventually lead to more renewals and maybe even more licenses.
There are many ways of conducting a QBR, and they dont all have to happen in the same way. But there are still some best practices that would be good to follow.
This might seem a no-brainer. After all, the frequency is right there in the name: Quarterly.
But the reality is that some customer relationships might not be appropriate to a quarterly review. If the customers implementation timeline is very aggressive, or it is a very eventful account where plenty of things happen, you might consider increasing the frequency to once a month, and then dialing it back when the onboarding period is over.
If, on the other hand, the account is reasonably laid back, quiet, and has very simple and basic needs, quarterly may be too frequent even for them. Perhaps twice a year of formal QBRs while emailing them once a quarter to do a temperature check.
The key is knowing your customer well and adjusting based on their specific requirements.
To my mind, a QBR absolutely MUST contain the following agenda points:
These agenda points are nice to include if you have any to mention, or if there is time:
Keep in mind that while you can and should definitely celebrate successes during a QBR, that is not the primary purpose of the meeting. It is a customer lifetime touchstone where you review and, if necessary, course-correct the direction of your implementation.
The customer might ask you hard questions during your QBR, and you need to be prepared. This is not the time for a deep dive into your database. You should already have all relevant information ready to go – whether memorized or easily accessible in your CRM or ideally, a purpose-built Customer Success Platform like Catalyst.
Ready information like:
Basic subscription info
Crucial dates
Strategy and goals

A Quarterly Business Review is just like any other meeting except that its not.
QBR meetings must be both engaging and informative. Youre going to be talking a lot about customer value, and so your meeting must contain a lot of value in turn.
Here are some practical QBR presentation tips that you can use to ensure a smooth session.
The success of your QBR is directly proportional to the amount of preparation you pour into it. This includes preparing things like:
Preparation also includes knowing all of your clients profile information backwards and forwards. When do they renew? What is their annual rate? How much of a discount are they currently receiving?
Any of those questions could be asked at any point. And while the world wont suddenly end if you cant remember the threshold of the next pricing tier, researching that information halts the flow of conversation and makes the meeting take that much longer.
Doing that once in a while is okay. Were only human and cant remember everything. But if you have to look up information every time a customer asks you a question, theyll start to wonder if you really know what youre doing.
Coming into a meeting armed with all the answers gives a much better impression – one that reflects positively on the company as a whole.
Theres a large gulf between meetings that are short and those that are value-rich. Even short meetings can feel like hours if they arent engaging.
Dont pad the agenda with useless fluff, especially if you have senior members of their company on the call.
In fact, you may want to structure your agenda in such a way that the critical information is handled first, and allow those who no longer need to be part of the rest of the discussion to leave.
Youre not on-stage at TED. The QBR is not a one-way presentation. The customer can and should ask questions, and you should ask questions of the customer in turn.
This is the opportunity for both of you to ask questions that you have been burning to ask all quarter. These questions increase both parties understanding of each others situation. It can lead to solutions, or it can lead to a stronger partnership.
For instance, you might ask:
While the customer might ask:
Questions like this could be asked at any point during the relationship, but for some reason customers (and CSMs) dont think to ask until given the explicit opportunity to do so. Also, some questions on the customer side require preparation (like gathering information from the user base).
You dont have to answer all the questions right away. Even the most prepared CSM will have some gaps in their knowledge. But the important thing is that the questions are asked, and the answers will be forthcoming.
Quarterly Business Reviews are an essential part of any Customer Success program. They provide many benefits when theyre done properly, such as:
QBRs have to be approached strategically, just like the implementation of your product. It has to undergo thorough planning and extensive preparation to ensure that the customer is getting value – not just from the product, but from the meeting itself.
The QBR is as much a part of your brand as the marketing is. You are showing your customer the value that you bring to the table, and your willingness to work with them through challenges. This is crucial in a period of their lifecycle where the QBR is going to be their primary mode of contact with your company outside of using the product.
So make it count!
