Churn¶
Churn Analysis¶
Customer Retention Analysis is a strategic process that involves systematically examining customer behavior, usage patterns, feedback, and transactional data to identify the factors contributing to customer attrition and highlight at-risk segments. By leveraging analytics and insights from customer success interactions and product engagement, organizations can proactively design targeted retention initiatives, optimize product experiences, and refine their sales strategies. This approach is essential for maximizing customer lifetime value, uncovering upsell and cross-sell opportunities, and driving sustainable growth in competitive markets.
