Project Summary:

Yore Blends (YB) is a fictional online company dedicated to selling subscription-based traditional spice blends coupled with additional complementary products such as gifts, kitchen utensils, and eco-friendly storage options.

In the long term, they aspire to growing through mergers and acquisitions which requires a strong customer base and steady revenue. In the short turn, they are concerned about customer churn (the percentage of customers that have stopped buying their products and services).

Issue: Customers seem to stop ordering products and/or using the service after several months.

Business Believes: By targeting customers who are at risk for churn customer attrition can be reduced by 16%

Data scope: Customer account data for previous 24 months
