THE REAL REASON BUSINESSES
FAILS TO GROW IS BECAUSE THEY RAN OUT
OF CASH! AND THEN THEY DIE!
1. They don’t have enough customers coming in, doing business with them
2. They fail to attract enough prospects
3. They fail to convert them4. Then they allow their current
customers to slip away from them to their competitors.

CALCULATE CUSTOMER LIFETIME VALUE
Customer is the Reason Why You’re in Business.
What’s Their Worth to You?
![Page 21: Transforming The Way African Does Business OUR ORGANISATION Growing Small Businesses The Critical Path way and Remedies.](https://reader037.fdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022110403/56649e6c5503460f94b6bc85/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Customers are your most valuable asset. By knowing the ‘Lifetime Value’ of a customer, you’ll know - through a simple scientific process - what you can afford to spend to acquire a new customer as well as keep your existing customers.
It is: The average purchase value,
Multiplied by: The average number of times
they buy in a year,
Multiplied by: The average number of years
they remain your customer,
PLUS: The monetary value of their referrals.
WHAT IS THE ‘LIFETIME VALUE’ OF A CUSTOMER?
