Churn Doesn’t Start Months Later. It Starts Right After Checkout

Acquisition gets all the attention. But the real story of churn is written in what happens immediately after “buy now.”

Shipfusion ordered from 110 beauty brands to track every step of that stretch. Cosmetics were just the test case. The same cracks show up in apparel, wellness, pet care and every category.

Here’s what broke loyalty long before the second order:

❌ Only 31% offered free returns, while nearly half billed shoppers and 9% blocked returns completely.

💔 A third of shipments arrived damaged, with over 10% beyond use.

⬆️ 3 out of 4 brands missed upsell flows at peak intent.

🤔 Almost 90% excluded samples, leaving customers without a reason to reorder.

This ebook breaks down where brands failed, what top performers did differently, and actionable ways to close these gaps before churn compounds.

💡 How to Save Time and Money on Creative with AI

Most B2B teams struggle with creative production. The cycle of guesswork, endless edits, and wasted ad spend drains both time and budget. But with the right approach, AI can transform this chaos into a repeatable system that protects your brand and delivers results.

Here Are the Key Steps

1️⃣ Build an AI-Ready Brand Guide: Document your color psychology, messaging frameworks, and emotional triggers. The clearer your inputs, the stronger and more consistent the AI-generated creative.

2️⃣ Analyze Winning and Losing Ads: Use AI to detect patterns in both successes and failures. Metrics like CTR, CVR, and CPA reveal what engages audiences and what wastes spend. A subtle detail, like a smile in a photo, becomes a measurable factor instead of a hunch.

3️⃣ A/B Test with Discipline: Leverage AI to create variations, but follow a strict process. Test one variable at a time, write down your hypothesis, and wait for statistical significance before declaring winners.

Why This Matters

Creative doesn’t have to be a gamble. By pairing AI insights with structured testing, you shift from inconsistent trial-and-error to a system that scales winning ideas and avoids expensive mistakes.

The Takeaway

AI is not about replacing creativity, but about making it smarter. When guided by clear brand principles and disciplined testing, AI can streamline production, cut costs, and deliver on-brand assets that consistently drive growth.

💡 Why Brands Must Stay Active on Social Media
Insights from stackedmarketer

Many companies underuse their social platforms, posting inconsistently or only during major launches. But data shows that audiences expect more. Social media is not optional anymore; it is the space where your brand either stays relevant or fades away.

Here Are the Key Insights

1️⃣ Users Follow for News: Reports show that 64% of followers want updates on sales and promotions, while 57% look for news about new products or features. Social media is not just about engagement; it is also a primary news source.

2️⃣ Entertainment Drives Loyalty: 58% of users also follow for entertainment. This means you cannot rely only on product updates. Humor, behind-the-scenes content, and creative formats keep your audience tuned in even when major announcements are rare.

3️⃣ Turn Every Update Into a Story: Whether it is a holiday discount, a product launch, or a small feature release, share it. Use Reels, TikToks, or influencer content to amplify the message. Pairing information with entertainment maximizes impact and reach.

Why This Matters

If your brand is not consistently showing up in feeds, it risks being forgotten. Social platforms are where audiences actively look for you. By treating them as real-time storytelling hubs, you ensure your brand is present wherever your customers are.

The Takeaway

Your audience does not wait for email updates or press releases. They expect to see your brand’s story unfold on social media. Staying active, mixing updates with entertainment, and showing up in real time keeps your brand relevant and top of mind.
