Common Measurement Mistakes
- • Counting account openings without confirming primary-relationship status (direct deposit, active usage)
- • Cross-selling products without regard to household fit, inflating products-per-household without real value
- • Not segmenting attrition by digital-only vs. branch-engaged customers, hiding where competitive pressure is worst
Best-Practice Notes
- • Define "primary relationship" explicitly (e.g. direct deposit + 2+ active products), not just account count
- • Segment attrition and digital adoption by generation/channel preference — the drivers differ significantly
- • Time cross-sell offers to real life-event triggers rather than blanket campaigns
