Focusing on Lifetime Value of a Customer

One of the key mistakes that can bankrupt a business is focusing more on revenue than the lifetime value of a customer. Entrepreneurs often ask how much money they should spend on ads, but the more appropriate question to ensure success is how much they can spend to acquire a customer. The lifetime value (LTV) of a customer reveals how much can be expected from that customer throughout their relationship with the business. By understanding LTV, entrepreneurs can determine how much they can spend to acquire a customer profitably, which is crucial for sustained business growth.
