Your Platform Has Eyeballs. It Doesn't Have Loyalty.
Media and social platforms face a unique retention challenge — users are easy to attract and easier to lose:
New users sign up but never discover the content, creators, or features that would make them stay
Content recommendation and notification strategies are generic — not personalised to user interests or behaviour
Creator or contributor activation and retention is an afterthought, even though supply-side health drives everything
Push notifications and emails are driving opt-outs instead of engagement because of poor frequency and relevance
Monetisation (subscriptions, premium content, ad revenue) suffers because DAU and session depth aren't growing
