Subscription Growth Has a Retention Problem

You're optimizing acquisition while churn silently erodes your unit economics. The real question isn't how many subscribers you get, it's how many stay.

High CAC on low first-order value

Subscription economics depend on retention, but you're acquiring based on first-purchase metrics. CAC payback periods are invisible.

Churn eats into LTV projections

Your LTV models assume steady retention, but real cohort decay is nonlinear. Month 3 and month 6 are cliff edges you can't predict with spreadsheets.

Hard to separate trial from loyal

Promo-driven subscribers look identical to organic ones at acquisition. By the time you know who sticks, you've already optimized for the wrong audience.

Channel-level LTV is a black box

You know overall LTV. You don't know LTV by acquisition channel. Meta subscribers might retain 2x better than TikTok, but you're treating all channels equally.
