How to Improve
Build a churn prediction model using product usage data and trigger intervention at risk score thresholds. Implement a structured offboarding survey that captures the real reason for leaving. Create a win-back playbook for the first 90 days after churn.
Ehsan's Analysis
Every MarTech company I have advised at Seed stage that broke into top-quartile on this metric did one thing differently: they built internal tooling to track it in real-time instead of relying on monthly reports. The latency between signal and action is where value leaks. Build a dashboard that your team checks before their morning coffee.
