If you are thinking something as

“We spoke to many customers but we are experiencing a high churn rate or inactive accounts rate; not sure how we could do it for the retention.”

“Our customers are loving the product and they see the value but our positioning is not very clear—we need to redo it and bring more customer-centric storytelling.”

“Our SaaS product page is getting a good traffic and they are seeing our pricing page but the conversions are too low—I wonder how we can build the urgency and confidence to help them sign up.”
