  • #23 Jason
  • #24 Rachel Just to give some additional examples of great results using Insights, I wanted to mention a couple of our other customers, like Unified Compliance. They wanted to make sure that their trial and paying subscribers were not only actively using their service during the critical onboarding phase, but that they were doing the right things with it to get early value and set themselves up for success. By doing analysis with Insights, Unified was able to define specific actions that were absolutely crucial during onboarding, that directly led to customers buying more and staying longer down the road. And guess what?: most of their customers were not doing those things! So they set up a series of email outreach messages to guide their users at key moments and help them get the most value. They’ve seen a big uptick in the frequency of the onboarding actions, and in their customer conversion and retention as a result.
  • #25 Rachel And BizLibrary has achieved some phenomenal results using Insights, and we’re really proud to have had them here at Subscribed. In the past year, in addition to a 41% increase in net promoter score, they've seen a 19% increase in customer engagement, a 16% increase in renewal rates, and a 134% increase in upsells. All while saving members of their team 8-16 hours/week.
