• Identify churn risks and create re-engagement tactics, such as personalized offers, reminders, or relevant incentives, to reactivate dormant users.
• Analyze patterns in user drop-off points, reasons for inactivity, and feedback to develop actionable insights and intervention strategies.

Data Analysis & Optimization

• Continuously track and analyze key metrics across the funnel, including acquisition costs, engagement rates, retention, and transaction frequency.
• Use data insights to run experiments that increase the effectiveness of the growth funnel, optimize marketing spend, and enhance customer satisfaction.
• Regularly present findings, successes, and learnings to the team, contributing to strategic decisions on customer growth and lifecycle management.
