What you’ll take from the session

A read on what your onboarding teaches. Why renewal is largely decided in the first ninety days — long before the renewal notice lands.

A test for the first impression. Whether a new member meets a person or a portal in their first week — and why that difference compounds.

A better measure than usage. What to watch instead of logins and downloads when you want to know who will still be here next year.
