Maximising the Lifetime Value of a Customer | Valentin Radu

Today’s Guest Valentin Radu

Here's a summary of the great stuff that we cover on this show:

  • Maximising customer lifetime value is all about taking a holistic view of the customer lifecycle and understanding how to measure customer lifetime.
  • There are three pillars to maximising customer lifetime value - customer acquisition, customer conversion and customer retention.
  • Customer research is of utmost importance in order to build on customer data and understand the current customers and what their needs are.
  • Once you know the customer, it's time to craft a message that resonates with them and incentivise them to take action.
  • Retention strategies are key in order to persuade customers to keep coming back for more.
  • By taking a holistic view of the customer lifecycle and implementing the right strategies, your business can maximise customer lifetime value.

Sponsor for this episode

At the eCommerce Cohort, we're committed to helping you deliver eCommerce WOW through our lightweight, guided monthly Sprint that cycles through all the key areas of eCommerce.

What happens in a Sprint?

Just like this eCommerce Podcast episode, each Sprint is themed-based. So using this topic of Everything You Need To Know About Subscription eCommerce as an example - here's how it would work:

  • Sprint Theme: Marketing.
  • Week One: Coaching Session -> Marketing.
  • Week Two: Expert Workshop -> Everything You Need To Know About Subscription eCommerce.
  • Week Three: Live Q&A with our experts and coaches. This is a time to ask questions and contribute your thoughts and ideas so we can all learn together.
  • Week Four: Submit your work for feedback, support, and accountability. Yup, all of this is to provide you with clear, actionable items you can implement in your eCommerce business or department! It's not about learning for the sake of learning but about making those constant interactions that keep you moving forward and ahead of your competitors. Sharing your work helps cement your understanding, and accountability enables you to implement like nothing else!

Who can join the eCommerce Cohort?

Anyone with a passion for eCommerce. If you're an established eCommercer already, you'll get tremendous value as it will stop you from getting siloed (something that your podcast host, Matt Edmundson, can attest to!).

If you're just starting out in eCommerce, we have a series of Sprints (we call that a Cycle) that will help you get started quicker and easier.

Why Cohort

Founder and coach Matt Edmundson started the Cohort after years of being in the trenches with his eCommerce businesses and coaching other online empires worldwide. One of Matt's most potent lessons in eCommerce was the danger of getting siloed and only working on those areas of the business that excited him - it almost brought down his entire eCommerce empire. Working on all aspects of eCommerce is crucial if you want to thrive online, stay ahead of your competitors and deliver eCommerce WOW.

Are you thinking about starting an eCommerce business or looking to grow your existing online empire? Are you interested in learning more about the eCommerce Cohort?

Matt has been involved in eCommerce since 2002. His websites have generated over $50m in worldwide sales, and his coaching clients have a combined turnover of over $100m.
