On churn prediction:
(06:54-07:38)
The way most of our clients are running campaigns today is with a rule-based segmentation. They’ll come to us and they’ll say that they want to target users who are 7 days-lapsed. 7 days of inactivity is a good guess for a user who’s probably gone. But what we’re moving to, and what I’m really excited about, is using more predictive methods for defining that audience space. Instead of just saying, “Okay, as soon as it’s been 7 days, let’s get an ad in front of them,” let’s move towards something where we predict the right moment to show an ad to a specific user before they’re gone forever, while you still have a chance to keep them engaged.
