Churn Diagnosis and Prevention

Diagnose churn: who is leaving, when, why. Pattern recognition → targeted prevention.

Churn measurement

1. Monthly churn rate — % of customers who left this month
2. Cohort retention curves — how cohorts behave over time
3. Tenure distribution — most churn at 1, 3, 6, 12 months
4. Reason distribution — top reasons cited
5. Cohort lift — newer cohorts retaining better?
6. High-value customer retention — separate from total

Common churn reasons (cards niche)

1. Wrong fit — never engaged
2. Achieved goal — moved on
3. Cost — too expensive vs perceived value
4. Better alternative — found something better
5. Time — too busy
6. Bad experience — issue not resolved
7. Life change — circumstances shifted

Prevention tactics

1. Onboarding investment — first 30 days critical
2. Re-engagement campaigns — when activity drops
3. Customer success outreach — proactive check-ins
4. Value reminders — periodic 'here's what you've gained'
5. Upgrade offers — for at-risk customers
6. Personal outreach for high-value
7. Refund prevention — listen to dissatisfied customers
