What is Customer Churn?
Customer churn is when customers stop buying, renewing, or actively using your product.
Technical detail
Churn can be measured by logo count, revenue, or usage behavior depending on the business model. Early warning signs include slower engagement, unresolved support issues, and poor handoffs. AI workflows can help flag risk and trigger proactive outreach, but only if the process is measurable and owned.
Why it matters
- Retention often has larger profit impact than new acquisition.
- Early action can prevent avoidable losses.
- Clear churn signals improve prioritization across teams.
- Connects service quality to revenue outcomes.
Example
A customer’s usage drops and unresolved tickets increase. The workflow flags risk, creates a success task, and schedules a check-in before renewal risk grows.
