Page - 17 Why we need Lifetime Value Analysis  We need to know the value of our customers, so as to properly target our sales and retention efforts  We need to discriminate among our customers to acquire and retain the best

Page - 18 Lifetime Value Analysis Goal: Determine...  where to put your retention dollars  the value of each retention strategy  where to put your acquisition dollars  how much to spend on acquisition

Page - 19 What is lifetime value?  Net present value of the profit to be realized on the average new customer during a given number of years.  Lifetime value is “Good Will.”  To compute it, you must be able to track customers from year to year.  Main use: To evaluate strategy.

Page - 26 Effect of adoption of new strategies

Page - 27 What is the proper computation period?  Which is the correct lifetime value? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or more years?  They are all correct. Which you use depends on your product or service.  Long lifetimes: banks, insurance, utilities.  Short lifetimes: discount houses, package goods, catalogers.

Page - 28  Increase the retention rate  Increase the referral rate  Increase the spending rate  Decrease the direct costs  Decrease the marketing costs Five Ways to Boost LTV with DB Strategies

Page - 29 How to use lifetime value  Compute a base lifetime value  Dream up a new strategy  Estimate the benefits and costs  Determine whether your new lifetime value goes up or goes down  Don’t undertake any new strategy until you can prove it will be successful

Page - 30 Find LTV of Customer Segments  Many B-t-B customers are quite different in their purchase patterns  Create actionable segments and determine the value of each  Use the results to focus your retention programs and acquisition programs on the most profitable segments

Page - 31 Dividing Customers into Four Segments

Page - 32 Focus on Retention

Page - 33 Weldon’s Acquisition Focus  It is easier to acquire customers where you are well known: where you have a high penetration ratio.  Weldon has only 3% of heavy manufacturing.  They have 42% of the High Technology.  The return from concentration on high technology will probably be greater.

Page - 34 Focus on Acquisition by LTV Target Potential = LTV * Penetration Ratio

Page - 42 STRATEGIC DATABASE MARKETING by Arthur Middleton Hughes Chicago: McGraw Hill pp Millions have been spent on database marketing pro­grams that did not work. In this book Arthur Hughes shows how to evaluate strategies in advance using life­ time value analysis. He explains how to use RFM analysis to boost profits. Russ Richmond, President of Grey Direct said: "Well, Arthur has done it again. He has not only integrated the complicated world of data­bases with the traditional concepts of direct marketing, but he accurately points out the pitfalls and the how-tos. I know of a few careers that would have been saved had this book been available sooner. Without a doubt this will be the cheapest investment you'll make in your database, and perhaps the most important one." Thousands of customer marketing databases are being built. Unfortunately, many mistakes have been made. The reasons for these failures center on one central fault: the inability of marketers to develop logical, practical and winning strategies for their database marketing programs. We must study past mistakes to develop sound principles for marketing strategy. Order from www. DBMarketing.com
