How much does it actually cost you to acquire a customer?
And once you have them, how much could that relationship be worth over its lifetime?
In this episode, Peter Boolkah explains the difference between customer acquisition cost and customer lifetime value— and why businesses that focus only on the immediate transaction can destroy far more value than they realise.
Using real-world examples from BMW and United Airlines, Peter explores what happens when companies forget the long-term value of the customer relationship and make short-term decisions that damage trust.
You'll discover:
Acquiring customers is expensive.
Keeping good customers is valuable.
The mistake is spending heavily to win somebody and then treating the relationship as disposable.
Think beyond the transaction. Build the lifetime relationship.
