Customer Lifetime Value: The Core Metric in MarketingAdknowledge
How to use data and lifetime value to maximize the ROI on your marketing spend.
Out of all the metrics that we monitor in our business, there is one that captures the heart, soul, and ROI of our efforts: lifetime value (LTV) of our customers. The measurements of digital marketing have evolved dramatically over the years from CPM to CPC, CPA, CPI, and more. The next phase, and perhaps the most important, is calculating LTV. Few are taking the leap to position this metric as the core KPI of their marketing teams’ success. But the reality is, the moment your competitor starts to figure out LTV and you can’t, you’re dead.
In this session, Ben outlines best practices for developing the strategy necessary to undertake calculating lifetime value to better understand your customers and the essential analytics you need so you can boost your ROI.

This is the presentation I gave at Slush 2013 in Helsinki, Finland. It describes two methods for modeling Lifetime Customer Value (LTV) in Excel. Linked within the presentation is a spreadsheet exemplifying both methods against 100k rows of fake user data that I generated with a Python script to "look" real (although they probably don't).
