EP33 | Hiten Shah (FYI) - How to build a product with customer retention at the core

Today on Churn.FM, we have Hiten Shah, the founder and CEO of FYI, and other startups such as Kissmetrics, Crazy Egg, and Quick Sprout

We talked about the biggest shift in the product development landscape over the years, why it's harder than ever to build and grow a business today, and why Hiten still launched FYI despite it all.

We also talked about how Hiten categorizes customer retention into different buckets, why products should focus on targeting an already existing behavior instead of trying to invent a new one, and how Hiten goes about customer development.

Hiten also shared his biggest learning about churn and retention after years of product development experience, the top 3 things that companies should focus on to improve customer retention, and his #1 piece of advice for anyone who wants to build a new product today.

As usual, I'm excited to hear what you think of this episode, and if you have any feedback, I would love to hear from you. You can email me directly on Andrew@churn.fm. Don't forget to follow us on Twitter.
