If your business retention strategy is “hope they don’t leave,”—congratulations, you’re doing it wrong! But don’t worry,  Emma Rainville and Perry Belcher are here to stage an intervention.

Buckle up, folks, because we’re about to dive into another beautiful disaster. This week on The Train Wreck Show, Emma and Perry sit down with Mark Stern, founder of Custom Box Agency and the guy who’s here to turn customer retention into an art form.

Mark’s business is all about creating unforgettable, physical brand experiences. Think of it as retention wrapped in a box (literally). But how do you convince companies that a box full of goodies is the key to keeping their customers hooked? That’s exactly what the dynamic duo attempts to untangle, with a mix of marketing genius, unsolicited advice, and the occasional roast.

If you're struggling to keep customers engaged, this episode is for you. And if you're a SaaS founder, pay extra attention—you're about to discover the secret sauce to making your retention rate skyrocket.
