Reducing churn in B2B SaaS starts with finding where it begins. The churn origin map is a diagnostic framework with four origins to check first. They are a failed payment, a promise the sale couldn’t keep, a slow first win, and fading value before renewal. Fix the dominant origin first, before adding new tactics….
