How to Maximize your Customer Lifetime Value with Salesforce CRM
The key philosophy of running a successful business is keeping Customers above everything.
Businesses cannot survive if they cannot attract and retain customers. To reap maximum potential revenue, businesses not only should acquire new customers but also turn each of them into loyal customers.
To retain or maintain loyal buyers, businesses must clearly understand the concept of Customer Lifetime Value(CLV).
So, today, we will explore how CLV contributes to your business growth and how you can maximize your Customer Lifetime Value with Salesforce CRM.
Let’s begin by defining Customer Lifetime Value.
What is Customer Lifetime Value
Customer Lifetime Value is defined as the expected net profit from a customer over their entire relationship with your brand, right from the first purchase to the last one.
It costs less to retain existing customers than to obtain new ones.
By knowing the CLV of your customer, you can derive crucial insights that would help you to make adjustments to your customer retention strategy. These insights are-
- You can identify your VIP customers
- Time taken to breakeven from the cost of gaining new customers
- Which customers have higher CLV in the case of Subscription-based services.
It can safely be said that the higher the CLV, the higher the business revenue.
Leverage Salesforce to maximize your CLV
Calculating CLV is the baseline of your customer retention strategy. Now, you must implement effective practices to increase your CLV.
