How Repeat Purchase Rate actually behaves in insurance & brokers
Repeat Purchase Rate is the early-warning system for LTV. By month 4 you can already tell whether a cohort will hit healthy LTV — RPR by 90 days correlates strongly with annualized cohort LTV. If RPR < 20% by 90 days, the cohort is dead weight; double down on post-purchase flow. RPR is also segmentable by acquisition channel: organic + WhatsApp-acquired customers typically have 40%+ RPR vs 20–25% for cold paid traffic.
