    Understanding Customer Churn

    What it does

    Calculates your customer churn rate for a given period, annualizes it, projects yearly customer loss and revenue impact based on average customer MRR.

    Why it matters

    Churn is the silent revenue killer. A 5% monthly churn erodes 46% of your customer base annually. Reducing churn by just 2% can double company lifetime value.

    Definition

    Churn Rate = (Customers Lost / Starting Customers) × 100. Annualized rate compounds monthly/quarterly rate across 12 months.

    Assumptions

    • Customer loss is net of all churn reasons (competitive loss, downgrades, non-renewal).
    • Average MRR per customer is constant (doesn't account for upsells or downgrades).

    How to interpret your results

    SaaS benchmarks: <5% annual churn = excellent, 5-10% = good, 10-25% = needs work, >25% = critical. Even 1% improvement can be worth millions.

    How to improve

    • Improve onboarding

      Customers who see value in the first 30 days rarely churn. Systematic onboarding is the #1 retention lever.

    • Proactive support

      Reach out to at-risk customers before they cancel. Health scoring and engagement tracking prevent surprise churn.

    • Product evolution

      Gather churn feedback and prioritize feature requests that directly prevent churn.
