The percentage of products sold that are returned by customers within a given time frame.

Problem it addresses

High return rates can significantly impact a business’s profitability and operational efficiency. Without monitoring this metric, companies may overlook product quality issues, customer satisfaction problems, or unrealistic product descriptions, leading to increased costs and damaged reputation.

How it helps

The product return rate provides insights into customer satisfaction and potential issues with the product or service. By analyzing return reasons, companies can identify and address product flaws, improve descriptions, and enhance customer service. Reducing the return rate can lead to higher customer satisfaction, reduced costs, and improved profitability.
