Two of our tomato plants are growing like weeds. So much so that I've trimmed off large branches and stuck those into some pots. Now a couple of weeks later, those branches have grown into full plants and are starting to make their own tomatoes. The other tomatoes we planted...
Recently a Repeat Customer Insights customer was asking about the First Product Analysis worked. You can think of the First Product Analysis as segmenting customers based on which product(s) they had in their first order.
