Lifetime Value is a direct marketing term. It didn’t adapt to the web all that simply.

If you don’t know what a client is worth, you don’t know what you should spend to acquire them, and you don’t know what you should spend to keep them.

Wait, isn’t LTV a metric?
Why are we creating an LTV custom dimension and not a metric? It’s a number so should it be a metric?
Google Analytics sums metrics over time. This means that if I set Bob’s lifetime value to £100 now, then £200 a week later (because he does something to cause his LTV to go up), GA would record his LTV as £300 (£100 + £200) which isn’t what we want.
Dimensions have the concept of scope. They can be set to only remember the last seen value for someone (hence why the LTV custom dimension is set to User level scope).
