One of the great benefits of a cohort analysis is that you can compare how time changes customer behavior.
When cohorts are month-based, like in Repeat Customer Insights, you can compare the vertical columns to see how customers behave after e.g. 1 month, 2 months, 6 months.
That'll let you notice changes in revenue, AOV, or overall ordering behavior. When one is much higher or lower than the others, that's a good candidate for investigating deeper.
Use percentages and you can even compare busy to slow periods.

Learn what your customers are actually doing instead of just guessing
One of the best ways to build a sustainable business starts by getting your customers to come back. Mastering that simple process can be difficult, but builds a lifelong business.
Repeat Customer Insights can help you understand your customer's behavior. With its collection of behavior reports, you can see what they're actually doing instead of guessing and having your efforts fall flat.
