FAQs

Why do I need analytics?

Marketing analytics allows us to measure the effectiveness of your marketing efforts and budgets. With these insights, we can make strategic decisions to improve your marketing plan. Analytics enable us to see what’s working, what needs work and where we can test new opportunities.

Do I need to pay for marketing analytic tools?

Typically, no. Google Analytics, your native website data, and ad platform data are good starting points for us to analyze your marketing data. These tools are free or already included as part of your subscription.

How much should I spend on paid media?

This largely depends on your business goals. For example, if your goal is to aggressively acquire new customers, we would calculate your marketing spend by first determining your Customer Acquisition Cost (CaC), your Average Order Value(AOV), and your Average Customer Lifetime Value (LTV).

If your goals are outside of acquisition, the metrics we use to determine your ad spend would change. Feel free to chat with us about your business goals, so we can help you determine your ideal paid media budget.

What ROAS should I target?

Return on ad spend (ROAS) differs depending on campaign goals and target audience. For example, if you are acquiring a new customer, you may want to scale your ROAS down to 1 in order to capture more net new customers.

Why is this okay? If you break even on acquiring a customer, then you are adding them to your database for free. From there, if that customer purchases again, their LTV will grow. This is why businesses should focus on customer LTV rather than initial acquisition costs.

If your campaign is targeting current customers, we’d aim to scale the ROAS as high as possible. You’ve already acquired these customers, so now your goal is to further monetize them and increase their LTV. In that case, the higher the ROAS, the more revenue you generate from your customer base.

How much should I spend to acquire a new customer?

This will largely vary by industry, target audience and other factors. As a rule of thumb, you should aim to break even on the cost it requires to gain a new customer within the first year. Once you break even, every purchase that customer makes afterwards will be profitable to your business.

How do I determine the Lifetime Value (LTV) of my customers?

Lifetime Value is calculated by determining the revenue value over the lifetime of a customer. For example, if your average customer spends $900 per year with your business and you retain them as a customer for 5 years, your customer LTV is $4,500. Other factors can affect LTV, like average churn rate, annual spends by cohorts and upsells. If you would like help determining your customer LTV, please reach out below.
