ThriveStack Announces Updates to Full Journey CRM with Acquisition and Retention Journeys to Bring All Growth Teams Together

Empowering GTM Teams with End-to-End Customer Journey Visibility

ThriveStack is proud to announce the next evolution of its platform: Full Journey CRM with Acquisition and Retention Journeys — a powerful update designed to unify Marketing, Customer Success, Sales, Revenue, and Product Management teams around a single, continuous view of the customer lifecycle.

With this update, growth and customer teams can now track touchpoints from first ad click to renewal, measure acquisition velocity, monitor customer health, and proactively identify retention and expansion opportunities — all in one place.

"Our ARR Grew by 23% After We Gained Full Lifecycle Clarity"

“ThriveStack’s Full Journey CRM gave us a 360° view of the customer lifecycle — from first marketing touchpoint through product adoption and renewal. We’ve seen a 23% ARR uplift and reduced churn by 15% within a single quarter,” said Emma Raines, VP of Growth at NovaCloud, a $23M ARR SaaS company and early beta user.

The Growing Need for Unified GTM Intelligence

Modern SaaS companies face growing complexity across acquisition, onboarding, and renewal cycles. Fragmented CRMs and disconnected tools make it difficult to understand which campaigns drive real conversions — or to see early signs of churn before it’s too late.

Metric Challenge Insight
30% of marketing-qualified leads never convert due to data fragmentation
25% of revenue loss stems from late churn detection
40% of teams say attribution models fail to reflect actual customer journeys

ThriveStack bridges these gaps by providing a unified signal layer across marketing, product, and customer data — ensuring teams act on the same real-time intelligence.
