The story

The challenge

Pulse acquired users cheaply, but most stopped training within a month. Growth had flattened even as ad spend rose.

Our approach

We redesigned onboarding around a seven-day streak, rebuilt the lifecycle emails and shifted paid social toward people likely to keep the habit.

The result

Churn in the first 60 days fell 34%, and paid acquisition became profitable within one quarter.

“We stopped chasing installs and started keeping people. The numbers followed.”
