In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Daniel McCarthy on the topic of Customer Lifetime Value (LTV / CLV). This is Daniel's second appearance on the podcast; he first joined me in April to discuss his paper, Evaluating the Impact of Privacy Regulation on E-Commerce Firms: Evidence from Apple’s App Tracking Transparency . In this episode, Daniel provides an overview of the CLV / LTV metric. Among other topics, we cover: The concept of LTV The commonalities observed across companies that utilize LTV successfully The analytical challenges in deriving LTV Which functional team within an organization should own the LTV metric The right dimensionality / granularity of user segmentation to use in calculating LTV The ways in which companies overcomplicate the LTV calculation How the LTV metric can be kept current Whether improvements to LTV through product or marketing optimization over time should be assumed when calculating LTV Thanks to the sponsor of this week’s episode of the Mobile Dev Memo podcast: INCRMNTAL .
