Why does my churn look stable even though revenue keeps dropping per customer?

But this can hide a deeper issue — many businesses reduce churn by offering discounts that keep customers subscribed without increasing real customer value.

S: Churn is down and the dashboard shows green — but discounted subscription share is rising at the same time. C: Customers are being retained through discounts rather than product value shifting the relationship from value-based to price-dependent. I: Revenue per customer declines while reported retention improves weakening long-term monetization efficiency.
