3 Brutal Truths About Renewal Rate

  1. It’s the Ultimate Retention Report Card.

  • A high renewal rate? You’re doing something right.

  • A low renewal rate? Your customers might be quietly breaking up with you—without even leaving a note.

  1. Renewal Rate and Churn Are Two Sides of the Same Coin.

  • If your renewal rate is looking rough, your churn rate is probably celebrating.

  • This metric is your early warning system—ignore it at your own peril.

  1. Investors Obsess Over This Number.

  • A strong renewal rate signals a predictable revenue stream and happy customers.

  • If you’re looking to raise capital, your renewal rate better be telling a good story.
