Description
The average time interval between consecutive purchases of a specific product by the same customer. This metric gauges customer loyalty and the regularity of repeat purchases for a particular item.
Why it is important
Repurchase Frequency gauges customer loyalty and the regularity of repeat purchases, offering insights into the sustained appeal of specific products. This metric is essential for optimizing inventory, tailoring marketing campaigns, and fostering long-term customer relationships.

By analyzing repurchase frequency, businesses can identify product champions, implement targeted loyalty programs, and enhance overall customer retention strategies.
Formula
Sum of Time between Consecutive Purchases / Total Number of Repurchases
Calculation example
If a customer repurchases Product A after 30 days and repurchases it again after 40 days,

Repurchase Frequency = (30 + 40) / 2 = 35 days
