Do you know your customer churn rate? Do you know why you have lost customers recently? Do you know what it takes to keep customers?

And with this knowledge, you can take intelligent steps towards improving your current customers' experience and thereby increase your overall customer retention rate.

Customer Retention Surveys vs. Lost Customer (Churn) Research

Customer retention surveys and lost customer research differ by the type of respondent. Customer churn research is traditionally performed with former (lost) customers while customer retention research can be performed with former and/or existing customers. While lost customer research focuses on why they left, customer retention focuses on why they left, why they might be considering leaving and/or what might make them stay. Otherwise, the two surveys focus on the same thing – a better understanding of what can be done to increase satisfaction and your overall retention rate.

Polaris is experienced in creating the complete range of market research surveys, including customized customer retention survey programs, as well as lost customer (customer churn) surveys. Our retention survey analysis will show you the real reasons customers stay, as well as why they leave.
