I was pleased to achieve $3k in revenue with my first SaaS. I had never experienced this before, and I believe it's a good result for a first attempt.
But....
However, I'm facing a pressing issue with a staggering churn rate of 52%, which is causing my monthly revenue to stagnate. This is a substantial hurdle that I'm urgently seeking to overcome, and I would greatly appreciate your insights and assistance.
Customers - 62
Active customers - 29
I have a few hypotheses:
My clients (small and medium business owners) don't need subscriptions. They want to take one-time 100,000 emails and go out to use it.
Solution: change the client's profile to lead generation specialists (they need a considerable amount of different emails)
Solution: add email warm-up and prospecting like in Apollo or Instantly
It may be okay for my SaaS.
My service is worse. I don't think so because I don't have any negative feedback or refund requests from all 62 paid clients. Additionally, many users upgrade their subscriptions.
What should I do to understand better why my churn rate is high?
