Trial & Repeat | Overview

App Overview: 

Seek's Trial and Repeat app is a powerful way to help you understand customer purchase behavior, particularly in the context of new product launches.

This app leverages transaction level data to show how often customers who buy a product for the first time (trial) end up buying it again (repeat). By analyzing this information, you can gain valuable insights into customer loyalty and identify opportunities to improve retention rates.

Don't rely on guesswork when launching new products - use Seek's Trial and Repeat app to make data-driven decisions that maximize your chances of product adoption and growth.

  • Marketing campaigns: The company may need to adjust its marketing campaigns or distribution strategies to reach more customers and increase trial rate.
  • Pricing and promotion: The company may need to adjust the pricing or promotional strategies of the product to attract new customers and retain existing ones.
