Most subscription-based enterprises look at “churn rates,” or the percentage of customers who cancel their subscription every year. It’s a simple way to check out the health of your business, and see if you’re meeting your growth goals. And if you’re operating in the highly competitive subscription-based B2B industry, it’s an especially important number.

Today, far too many brands do VoC simply because that’s what they think they’re supposed to do; that’s what all their competitors do.
