Increase WooCommerce Sales by Finding Your Best Customers and Improving Churn Rate
By Oli Dale – Unless we’re talking about ice cream, churn sucks. What is churn? Simply put, churn rate is the percentage of customers who leave your business, whether those people unsubscribe, discontinue their membership, or cancel their contract with you. To help reduce churn rate and increase Ecommerce sales, Oli Dale featured an awesome plugin for WooCommerce users.
The plugin, called Woo Reports, allows WooCommerce store owners to “run reports against your customers and Analyse the list of new, active, returning, churning and inactive customers by comparing the number of orders and sales spent in current and previous yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly or daily time intervals.”
For more on Woo Reports’ features and how to use the plugin, definitely give Oli’s post a read.
