Losing users can feel like a gut punch, especially when you’ve poured so much effort into building something valuable. But every departure holds a lesson—and understanding why people leave is the first step to turning things around.
TODAY’S TIP
CHURN
Stopping the Drop-Off
Start with the data. Look at user behavior leading up to their exit. Are there patterns? Maybe they didn’t engage with a key feature, hit a technical roadblock, or simply stopped logging in. These clues help you pinpoint where the experience might be falling short.
Next, open up the conversation. When users cancel or leave, ask for feedback. Keep it short and focused: “What could we have done better?” or “What made you decide to leave?” This feedback is gold—it’s honest, direct, and shows you where to improve.
Address the root causes with intention. If users are leaving because of confusion, improve your onboarding. If they find no long-term value, focus on delivering updates that align with their needs. Remember, churn isn’t always about big flaws; sometimes, small frustrations stack up and push people away.

Finally, don’t wait until users are halfway out the door to act. Proactive communication, regular check-ins, and timely nudges can prevent churn before it happens. Users who feel seen and supported are far less likely to leave.
Churn isn’t the end of the story—it’s a chance to learn, improve, and strengthen your product. By staying curious and responsive, you’ll not only reduce drop-offs but also build a stronger, more loyal user base.
