FAQ

Should LTV be based on revenue or profit?

Revenue LTV is useful for top-line planning, but profit-based LTV is better for acquisition and budget decisions.

How often should I update LTV?

Update monthly or quarterly as retention, margin, and purchase frequency shift across cohorts.

Why can LTV look high but cash flow still be tight?

LTV is long-term value, while CAC is paid up front. Payback speed matters for cash flow stability.
