First Product Analysis: find which products create better customers

For years I've been wanting to add product analysis to Repeat Customer Insights. There are a lot of great behavioral data you can get from orders, but products have their own great data points especially around initial customer behavior (i.e. what causes the first purchase).

Finding patience in the two-week data import

I've been working on a new feature for Repeat Customer Insights over the past couple of months. I'm not ready to announce it yet, I hate when companies talk about things that never get released, but the process has illustrated a few things. The first of which is the importance...
