In this episode, we explore the intricacies of CAC and LTV, providing actionable insights for eCommerce enthusiasts and entrepreneurs alike. If you're looking to enhance your understanding of these fundamental metrics or seeking inspiration for your business journey, this podcast is a must-listen! 

Takeaways :

• Calculating CAC: CAC can be calculated by adding up all the advertising costs, including sponsored brand, sponsored display, sponsored brand videos, and sponsored products, per ASIN per month. 
• Per-ASIN Analysis: To analyze LTV on a per-product basis, you should measure it against CAC on a per-product basis to determine the profitability of each product. 
• Weigh the Costs: Sellers should weigh the importance of different costs related to customer acquisition, such as advertising expenses, agency fees, and technology costs. This can help in determining which factors have the most significant impact on their business. 
• Understanding LTV: LTV should be calculated after considering all customer acquisition costs. It reflects how profitable a customer is after recouping all expenses incurred to acquire that customer. 
• LTV-CAC Ratio: The LTV-CAC ratio is crucial. A healthy ratio indicates that the lifetime value of a customer is higher than the cost of acquiring them. This implies profitability in the long run.

Quote of the Show:

The two most important metrics in business are customer lifetime value and customer acquisition cost. Understanding how profitable an average customer is over time and how much you can afford to pay to acquire a customer are fundamental to success. These fundamental metrics often get overlooked but should be optimized for over time.
