Identify the initial acquisition date
The initial acquisition date is the date when a user first becomes a customer or subscriber. This task is crucial for cohort analysis as it serves as the starting point to track and compare the behavior of different cohorts. By identifying the initial acquisition date, you can analyze the retention and engagement rates of cohorts over time. What is the initial acquisition date for this cohort?
Select the cohort period
The cohort period is the duration over which you will be analyzing the data. It allows you to group users into cohorts based on their acquisition date and observe their behavior during a specific time frame. By selecting an appropriate cohort period, you can gain insights into how user behavior changes over time. What will be the cohort period for this analysis?

Determine the behavioral metric to analyze
The behavioral metric is the specific action or event that you will be analyzing to measure user engagement or retention. By choosing an appropriate metric, you can understand how different cohorts perform in terms of the desired action. What is the behavioral metric you want to analyze for this cohort analysis?
Define the cohort segments
Cohort segments are subsets of your user base that you want to analyze separately. By defining cohort segments based on specific attributes or behaviors, you can compare the performance of different user groups and identify patterns or trends. What are the cohort segments you want to define for this analysis?
Compile user data
To conduct cohort analysis, you need to gather relevant user data for each cohort segment. This data can include demographic information, usage patterns, or any other data that is helpful in understanding user behavior. By compiling user data, you can ensure a comprehensive analysis. What user data do you need to compile for each cohort segment?
Divide users into cohorts based on the acquisition date
Once you have the initial acquisition date and cohort period, you can divide users into cohorts accordingly. This step allows you to group users who joined during the same time frame together. By dividing users into cohorts, you can observe their behavior and measure their retention and engagement rates over time. Please divide the users into cohorts based on the selected cohort period.

Calculate the retention rate for each cohort
Retention rate measures the percentage of users who continue to engage with your product or service over a specified period of time. By calculating the retention rate for each cohort, you can identify which cohorts have higher or lower retention rates. What is the retention rate for each cohort?
Graph the results to identify trends
By graphing the results, you can visually identify trends or patterns in the retention rates of different cohorts. This will help you understand how user behavior changes over time and whether certain cohorts perform better than others. Please graph the results to identify any trends.
Interpret findings based on the data
Based on the analyzed data and observed trends, it is important to interpret the findings and draw meaningful insights. This will help you understand the factors influencing user retention and engagement and guide your decision-making process. What are your interpretations of the findings?

Identify areas for customer retention improvement
By analyzing the data and interpreting the findings, you can identify areas where customer retention can be improved. This can include specific actions or strategies to enhance user engagement and reduce churn. What areas do you identify for customer retention improvement based on the findings?
Develop strategies to engage cohorts
To improve customer retention, you need to develop strategies tailored to each cohort segment. These strategies should be designed to address the specific needs and preferences of the cohorts. By developing effective engagement strategies, you can increase user satisfaction and loyalty. What strategies do you propose to engage each cohort segment?
Set up test scenarios based on identified strategies
To validate the effectiveness of the proposed engagement strategies, you need to set up test scenarios. These scenarios will allow you to measure the impact of the strategies on user behavior and retention. By setting up test scenarios, you can gather data to further refine your strategies. What test scenarios will you set up based on the identified strategies?
Run A/B tests
A/B tests involve comparing two or more versions of a strategy to determine which one performs better. By running A/B tests, you can evaluate the effectiveness of different engagement strategies and refine them based on the results. Which A/B tests will you run to evaluate the identified strategies?
Analyze test results
Analyzing the test results will provide insights into the performance of the tested strategies. By examining the data and comparing the results, you can determine which strategies are effective in improving customer retention. What are the findings from analyzing the test results?

Implement successful strategies
Based on the analyzed test results, you can select the successful strategies to implement. These strategies should be tailored to each cohort segment and aimed at improving user engagement and retention. By implementing successful strategies, you can drive positive outcomes and enhance overall customer satisfaction. Which successful strategies will you implement?
