Liam

Signed up, has not made a first purchase

Registered but never purchased, a Prospect, off the standard grid because there is no RFM history yet. The entire job is the first purchase: a well-timed, low-friction Day-0 activation. This cohort is the difference between a registration and a customer.

Registered, never purchased

Liam has an account but no purchase events, so he has no RFM score. The model flags him as a Prospect and routes him to the Day-0 activation programme, the single most valuable thing to fix.
