Prevent Customer Loss with Churn Management

Strategy   |   Bertrand Cariou   |   Jan 24, 2022

Customer churn management is a necessity in today’s competitive business arena. More than just the loss of revenue needs to be considered, as the added marketing expenditures needed to acquire new customers is substantial. Retention of the highest-value customer segments has historically been a trailing indicator. With more comprehensive data, however, and a deeper consumer understanding, some organizations have developed predictive churn management capabilities to pinpoint at-risk customers and proactively stop their loss to competitors.

Churn Management: A big undertaking, with big rewards

Accurate churn management requires handling a large volume of customer data, which initially must be converted into a workable analysis format. The data preparation process is an important first step before churn management, is particularly challenging for many possible reasons:

  1. Source data may be in formats unhelpful for analysis. For instance, your Data Records might include obscure key values that would be improved if first translated into human-readable text.
  2. Customer data may have poorly validated or incomplete fields that require cleaning up. Phone number data, for instance, might contain varied combinations of parentheses and dashes that need to be normalized across all records.
  3. The data may be stored in multiple locations, yet must be joined for effective churn management.
  4. With the ever-increasing use of web-based customer support, social media, and digital transactions the overall volume of today’s available customer data is overwhelming.
