What is customer lifetime value and how do I increase it?

Short answer

Customer lifetime value (LTV) is the total profit or revenue a customer brings over their relationship with your brand. Increase it with better first experiences, repeat-purchase reminders, cross-sells, loyalty and launches aimed at past buyers.

Knowing your LTV tells you how much you can afford to spend to acquire a customer.

Track LTV by acquisition channel and first product; some entry products lead to much better repeat behaviour.
