Churn - Early Warning System

Get warned before a loyal customer silently churns.

Churn - Early Warning System report

Monitoring the order frequency of your most loyal customers is essential. Imagine one of your top clients, who usually places an order every 4 weeks, keeps silent for 6 or even 8 weeks without you noticing - the probability of churn is already high, with the risk of losing a loyal customer. By monitoring the expected next order date and getting warnings when it is overdue, you never miss that point and can contact the customer or define other activities.
