Want higher retention, more referrals and a stronger lifetime value without constantly relying on new customer acquisition? This episode is for you. I'm breaking down how to increase adoption fast so customers actually use what they buy, get a quick win, and build the kind of momentum that turns into long-term results, renewals, and word-of-mouth growth. You'll learn the shift that changes everything: it's not enough to sell the product, it's your responsibility to design an experience that makes starting frictionless, progress obvious, and consistency more likely. I walk you through 5 practical levers to drive usage, including simplifying the first step, building smart reminders and cues, using proactive check-ins that reduce cancellations and returns, creating community and recognition that reinforces identity, and leveraging social proof to keep belief high while results catch up.

HIGHLIGHTS

• Why usage beats acquisition and how it impacts retention, referrals, and lifetime value.

• The real reason customers cancel, return, or churn even after an excited purchase.

• How to design a "fast start" experience that creates an early win and reduces drop-off.

• The 5 most effective ways to increase adoption (without becoming high-maintenance.)

• How to use reminders, community, and recognition to build habit and consistency.
