Customer retention

Keep the customers you already have.

Acquiring a new customer costs five times more than keeping an existing one. Yavun uses AI-assisted signals across email, WhatsApp, SMS and social to spot churn risk early and keep your best customers engaged.

Most businesses lose customers quietly, without knowing why.

Churn rarely announces itself. A customer goes quiet, skips a reorder, or simply stops opening emails. By the time you notice, they have already moved on. Without a systematic retention program, you are rebuilding the same customer base over and over instead of growing it.

1Churn prediction

Spot at-risk customers 30 days before they leave.

Yavun builds a churn risk model from your purchase history, email engagement and channel activity. Customers who match the pattern of past churners are flagged automatically so you can act before the relationship ends - not after.

  • Churn risk score updated daily for every customer
  • Behavioral signals: drop in opens, fewer purchases, shorter sessions
  • Segment by risk tier: at-risk, lapsing, churned
  • Suppression of at-risk contacts from promotional sends
  • Alerts when high-value accounts enter the at-risk tier

2Win-back campaigns

Re-engage lapsed customers with the right message.

A well-timed win-back campaign can recover customers who stopped engaging months ago. Yavun designs sequences that match the reason a customer went quiet - whether that is price sensitivity, product fit, or simply distraction - and delivers them on the channel most likely to get a response.

  • Segmented win-back sequences by lapse duration
  • Channel selection based on each customer's last active channel
  • Personalized offers based on past purchase history
  • A/B tested subject lines and message angles
  • Automatic exit when a customer re-purchases or re-engages

3Post-purchase nurture

Turn a one-time buyer into a repeat customer.

The period after a first purchase is the highest-leverage window for retention. Yavun builds post-purchase sequences that acknowledge the transaction, deliver genuine value, and create natural reasons to return - without generic promotional noise that trains customers to ignore you.

  • Order confirmation and onboarding sequences
  • Value-add content matched to the product purchased
  • Replenishment reminders timed to typical reorder windows
  • Cross-sell suggestions based on purchase history
  • Milestone messages: first anniversary, 5th order, etc.

How does Yavun identify at-risk customers?

Yavun builds a churn risk model from your historical data - purchase frequency, email open rates, channel engagement and time since last activity. Customers who match the pattern of past churners are scored and flagged daily. The model improves as it sees more outcomes.

What counts as a win-back?

A win-back is recorded when a lapsed customer makes a purchase or re-engages with a campaign after entering a win-back sequence. Yavun tracks which sequence, message and channel drove the recovery so you can see what is working.

Do I need a minimum customer base to get started?

The churn model works best with at least 500 historical customers. Below that, we use industry benchmarks to set initial thresholds and refine them as your own data grows.

Which channels does the retention program use?

Email, WhatsApp, and SMS - with each channel chosen based on where each customer has been most responsive. Social retargeting can also be added for customers who have disengaged from direct messaging.

Can retention sequences run alongside other Yavun campaigns?

Yes. Yavun's frequency capping ensures that customers in a win-back sequence are not also receiving promotional sends at the same time. The retention sequence takes priority for at-risk contacts.

How long before we see results?

Most programs recover measurable revenue within the first 60 days. Churn rate improvement shows over three to six months as the risk model matures and sequences are optimized.
