Attrition Rate

Definition:

Attrition Rate | The rate at which an event decreases in size or the number of attendees who do not show up on the day of the event (no-shows) divided by the number of attendees registered for an event (registrants). For example, if 100 people register for a conference, but only 70 people attend the conference, the attrition rate for the conference would be 30%.
