Involuntary churn happens when a user unwillingly cancels their subscription. For example, when your customer uses an expired credit card or when their card is maxed out. Voluntary churn happens when users willingly cancel their subscriptions. There are many potential reasons for this, which we dig deeper into during the webinar. "New customer acquisition is five times more expensive than customer retention." What are the high costs of churn? (In)voluntary canceling/deactivating customers are lost revenue​. Undervalued customers may turn to the competition. High churn reflects company valuation​. Revenue initiatives often lead to assumptions to increase ​customer acquisition. (However, we know that customer retention is less costly than customer acquisition.) How do we stop this churn? The answer is renewal automation. Renewals need to be online. Communication is key. Customers must receive the right information at the right time. The process needs to be iterative, driven by results. In the webinar, we explain how you can start increasing renewal rates by 10% or more. Start by answering these three questions: Who is the customer? What is the product? What are the subscription terms? Then let the machine (ecommerce platform) do the rest… In addition to renewal automation, we discussed how to empower your customers with self-service options, which saves money, time and effort.
