Business Goal
CLTV represents the amount of money a customer is expected to spend in your business during their lifetime and can be used to optimize your marketing efforts. It is one of the most important metrics to keep track of the overall performance of the business and ability to retain customers.
CLTV could be very useful for :
-
Decisions about investing in a current customer, i.e. spending on retaining, serving, & cross-selling
-
Decisions about ‘firing’ a current customer
-
Decisions about how much to spend on acquiring a new customer
-
Estimating how much a customer base is worth when valuing a company for purchase
-
Recording an asset value in the financial accounts
Challenges
Its challenging for Industries to account previous transactions plus various behavioral indicators in order to perform predictive analysis and takes. Industry needs to react quickly to customer demands
Its not easy to Identify the touchpoints where your customer creates value
Its important to personalize the formula for the business,in order to determine a highly-accurate customer lifetime value
Many Established Companies Keep Their Data in Different Silos. Data silos are detrimental to calculating CLV. Attempting to extract meaningful insight from these separate streams can be both expensive and inefficient
CLTV will differ by different customer segments. It’s most likely that one or two segments will have a much higher CLV than others, whether because they spend more per transaction or because they stay with you for longer
