1 Calculating CLV

To calculate CLV, you need to estimate three variables: the average revenue per customer, the average retention rate, and the discount rate. The average revenue per customer is the amount of money a customer spends on your products or services in a given period, such as a month or a year. The average retention rate is the percentage of customers who continue to buy from you in the next period. The discount rate is the interest rate that reflects the present value of future cash flows. You can use this formula to calculate CLV:

CLV = (average revenue per customer x average retention rate) / (1 - discount rate - average retention rate)

For example, if your average revenue per customer is $100, your average retention rate is 80%, and your discount rate is 10%, your CLV is:

CLV = ($100 x 0.8) / (1 - 0.1 - 0.8) = $400

This means that each customer is worth $400 to your business over their lifetime.

CLV is not fixed,?it's actually dynamic. These variables are impacted by shifts in the market and in consumer behavior. To ensure accuracy and applicability in your strategic choices, it's critical to update your CLV calculations on a regular basis by incorporating fresh information and emerging trends.

Calculate your CLV for each customer or segment and compare it with your CAC. CLV gives businesses a long-term view of customer relations, which can be useful in predicting future revenue.

2 Segmenting customers based on CLV

Once you have calculated CLV, you can segment your customers into different groups based on their CLV. This can help you understand their behavior, preferences, and needs, and tailor your marketing campaigns accordingly. For example, you can segment your customers into four groups: high-value, low-value, high-potential, and low-potential. High-value customers are those who have a high CLV and a high retention rate. They are your most loyal and profitable customers, and you should focus on retaining and rewarding them. Low-value customers are those who have a low CLV and a low retention rate. They are your least loyal and profitable customers, and you should either try to increase their value or reduce your acquisition and service costs. High-potential customers are those who have a low CLV but a high retention rate. They are your future stars, and you should focus on increasing their revenue and satisfaction. Low-potential customers are those who have a high CLV but a low retention rate. They are your at-risk customers, and you should focus on preventing their churn and re-engaging them.

Think about the 'Sleeping Giants,' clients who have inconsistent retention and low CLV. They are frequently disregarded, but with tailored engagement, they can be brought back to life and possibly reveal untapped sources of income. Historical evidence indicates that, given the right care, idle accounts can produce unexpected returns.

3 Using CLV to improve customer churn prediction and prevention

Customer churn is the loss of customers who stop buying from you or switch to a competitor. It can have a negative impact on your revenue, profitability, and growth. To predict and prevent customer churn, you can use CLV as a key indicator of customer loyalty and satisfaction. By tracking and analyzing the changes in CLV over time, you can identify the factors that influence customer retention and churn, such as product quality, customer service, pricing, promotions, and competition. You can also use CLV to segment your customers into different risk levels, and design targeted interventions to reduce churn and increase retention. For example, you can offer incentives, discounts, loyalty programs, referrals, feedback, or personalized recommendations to your high-value and high-potential customers, and improve your product features, service quality, or communication channels to your low-value and low-potential customers.
