Despite utilizing a robust RFM model (recency, frequency, and monetary value) to monitor user metrics and retention, periodic subscription cancellations persisted. Marley Spoon recognized the need to leverage available customer data—such as user attributes and real-time events—to reengage and reactivate these churned customers using a novel direct mail strategy.
