Renewals are one of the easiest ways to grow revenue — but only if your customers actually renew.
The challenge? Most renewal reminders are:
❌ Generic
❌ Easy to ignore
❌ Sent too late
❌ Lacking context
With Google Sheets + PostSheet, you can send personalized renewal reminders that are timely, thoughtful, and way more likely to drive action — whether you’re managing 10 accounts or 10,000.
Let’s walk through how to make your renewals seamless (and successful).
💡 Why Personalized Renewals Win
A smart renewal reminder helps you:
✅ Reduce churn
✅ Strengthen the relationship
✅ Surface upsell opportunities
✅ Show that you’re proactive, not reactive
✅ Make renewal feel like a natural next step
And the key? Make it feel like it was written just for them.
📋 Step 1: Set Up Your Renewal Tracker in Google Sheets
Create a central place to manage all upcoming renewals:
| Name | Company | Plan | Renewal Date | Renewal Amount | CSM Name | Custom Note | |
| Jamie Wong | jamie@email.com | Acme Co. | Pro Annual | 2025-05-15 | $1,200 | Alex Rivera | Upgraded last year — good fit |
| Alex Rivera | alex@email.com | Bolt Studio | Growth Monthly | 2025-05-10 | $199 | Taylor Brooks | May want to switch to annual plan |
Optional fields: churn risk level, contract type, last touchpoint, renewal method (auto/manual)
✉️ Step 2: Write a Renewal Reminder Template in PostSheet
Here’s a template that balances professionalism with a personal touch:
csharp
Copy
Subject: Renewal coming up for {{Company}} – {{Renewal Date}}
Hi {{Name}},
Just a quick heads-up — your **{{Plan}}** plan for {{Company}} is set to renew on **{{Renewal Date}}** for ${{Renewal Amount}}.
{{#Custom Note}}
P.S. {{Custom Note}}
{{/Custom Note}}
If you have any questions, want to make changes, or would like to schedule a quick chat, feel free to reach out to {{CSM Name}} (cc’d here if needed).

You can easily tweak tone, CTA, or timing depending on renewal type.
🚀 Step 3: Send or Schedule Renewal Campaigns in PostSheet
To send reminders:
- Filter your sheet for renewals due in the next 14–30 days
- Connect to PostSheet and map your fields
- Preview every message — make any manual edits
- Send immediately or schedule for optimal timing (e.g. 10 days out)
- Update your sheet (e.g. “Reminder Sent: Yes”)
Bonus: Use “Renewal Status” to track opened, replied, or completed renewals.
🔁 Bonus: Handle Different Renewal Scenarios
With conditional logic, you can:
- Send different messages based on plan size or value
- Follow up after no response with a nudge (“Just checking in…”)
- Use different CTAs: book a call, pay invoice, upgrade offer
- Loop in account managers or CSMs on strategic renewals
You can even include a link to the renewal invoice, checkout page, or contract doc.
