SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Retention challenges undermine long-term growth; this skill clarifies why users return and how to strengthen their return. In practice, it helps teams design value that compounds over time and defines clear triggers to re-engage users.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Compound value: identify elements that accumulate value as users continue to use the product.
  • Retention mechanics: specify natural and artificial triggers that encourage repeated use.
  • Metrics framework: establish D1/D7/D30 style retention targets and product metrics to track impact.

Quick Start

Identify the compound value and retention triggers, then document them in docs/gtm/context.yaml.

Frequently Asked Questions about retention

FAQPage Schema
How do I design compound value to increase user retention?

Compound value increases user retention by identifying elements that accumulate value as users continue using the product. This approach creates a self-reinforcing loop where users gain more benefits the longer they stay, naturally encouraging repeat engagement and long-term growth.

What are natural and artificial triggers for user engagement?

Natural and artificial triggers are retention mechanics that encourage repeated product use. Natural triggers stem from inherent product value, while artificial triggers are designed prompts that re-engage users. Both are essential for a comprehensive retention strategy and sustainable growth.

How do I establish D1 D7 D30 retention metrics for a product?

Establish D1/D7/D30 retention metrics by setting targets for user return rates at one, seven, and thirty days. This metrics framework tracks the impact of compound value and retention triggers, providing measurable goals for growth teams to monitor product performance.

When do I need a retention strategy for my product management workflow?

You need a retention strategy when long-term growth is undermined by users not returning. If your product lacks clear compound value or return triggers, implementing a structured retention plan with measurable metrics becomes essential for sustainable growth and user engagement.

How do I document retention triggers and compound value for my growth team?

Document retention triggers and compound value by recording them in docs/gtm/context.yaml. This specifies the accumulated value elements and natural or artificial triggers, ensuring your growth team has a clear reference for retention planning and metrics tracking.
