The Cost of Churn

If this churn rate persists for 1 year, you will lose:

$3,000/ year in current revenue

(~0% of your current customer base would be gone)

Logo Churn measures the percentage of customers who cancel. It indicates product satisfaction.

Revenue Churn measures the percentage of revenue lost. It helps determine if you are losing your highest or lowest paying customers.

Why Churn Matters

In SaaS, you don't just sell a product once; you have to sell it every month. Churn rate is the percentage of your customers who leave your service over a given period of time.

Acceptable Churn Rates

  • Enterprise ($10k+ ACV)0.5% - 1% / mo
  • Mid-Market ($1k-10k ACV)1% - 2% / mo
  • SMB / Prosumer (<$1k ACV)3% - 7% / mo

How to Reduce Churn

  • Improve onboarding to get users to "Aha!" moment faster
  • Switch to annual contracts (annual plans churn less)
  • Implement dunning management for failed payments
  • Regular customer success check-ins

Logo vs. Revenue Churn

Logo Churn tells you if your product is sticky. High logo churn suggests product-market fit issues.

Revenue Churn tells you if you are losing your best customers. If Revenue Churn is higher than Logo Churn, you are losing high-value accounts, which is dangerous.
