WeightWatchers

Driving a 10% cLTV increase with a simpler, more personalized cancellation experience.

While managing the growth design team at WeightWatchers, I led the effort to reduce churn and increase retention through a novel, AI-supported, and greatly simplified, cancellation experience.

Overview


Our churn rate was increasing as users signed up for longer plan lengths and our cancellation experience lacked effective ways to retain people once they’d entered the funnel.

As part of the growth design team’s rapid experimentation efforts, we shortened and simplified our cancellation funnel while also leveraging AI for churn prevention, with dramatic results.
