How to improve your NRR
- Build expansion into the pricing model — usage-based tiers and seat growth do the compounding for you.
- Instrument onboarding: customers who reach first value in week one churn dramatically less.
- Run win-back and downgrade-save flows before cancellation, not after.
- Move upmarket gradually — enterprise cohorts retain better than SMB.
