How Churn Rate actually behaves in events, weddings & conferences
Churn is the cancer of subscription businesses. 5% monthly churn looks small until you see 46% annual churn — the company replaces nearly half its customer base every year just to stand still. The fix is upstream: better onboarding, time-to-value, customer-success investment, product fit. Reducing churn by 1% absolute (from 5% to 4% monthly) changes annual retention from 54% to 61% — that's the difference between a leaky and a sustainable engine.
