Ok. Looks like you want to retain the value of these 2 variables each time you run your script. I suggest storing these variable values in files. Here is a template of how you can achieve this, you can modify as per your need:-

Code:
sftpSTATUS=`cat sftpstatus.dat 2> /dev/null`

if [ -z "$sftpSTATUS" ]
then
        echo "success" > sftpstatus.dat # Setting default status for sftpSTATUS
fi

echo "#Status of SFTP service (success/failed)" > currentstatus.dat

currentSTATUS=`cat currentstatus.dat 2> /dev/null`

if [ "$sftpSTATUS" = "success" ] && [ "$currentSTATUS" = "failed" ]
then
        # send an alert to support team
        echo "failed" > sftpstatus.dat
elif [ "$sftpSTATUS" = "failed" ] && [ "$currentSTATUS" = "success" ]
then
        # send service restoration mail
        echo "success" > sftpstatus.dat
fi

I hope it helps.
