Retention analytics & attribution FAQ
Questions before the work begins.
Can you prove a channel caused revenue?
Sometimes, but not from platform-reported attribution alone. We assess available data and use the most credible feasible method while stating limitations.
Which retention metrics matter?
The right set depends on the business model. Common measures include repeat rate, renewal, churn, time to second purchase, cohort retention, customer value, and margin.
Do you build dashboards?
Yes, when a dashboard supports recurring decisions. We begin with definitions, questions, and data reliability before choosing the reporting layer.
Can you help with testing?
Yes. We can define hypotheses, holdouts or comparison methods, success criteria, guardrails, sample considerations, and a learning record.
