Logo Churn
The rate at which you lose customers as accounts (logos), regardless of how much each paid, over a period. Distinct from revenue churn, which weights by dollars.
Logo churn = customers lost in a period / customers at the start
Why it matters
Logo churn shows how many relationships you are losing, which matters for word of mouth and market reputation even when the lost accounts were small. Compare it to revenue churn to see if you are losing many small customers or a few big ones.
For example
A company loses 15 of its 300 customer accounts in a quarter, a 5 percent logo churn, even though the lost accounts were small in revenue.
