DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION
Running a business that has ongoing subscriptions requires close attention to the ingredients that make up the perfect or 'ideal' customer. You can't spend too much money to acquire a customer, but you have to spend enough to hit scaling targets. Ultimately, the amount of spend is going depend on the average lifetime value of a given customer. The number of months it takes for a customer to repay its own costs as well as the ratio of the total lifetime value relative to the initial acquisition costs must be clearly understood and tracked over time.
It is amazing how much of a difference there is to the decision making process when you have good data around the decisions. If you don't track your performance on these key metrics, it will be harder to adjust what your SaaS business does in order to maximize profits.
This is a monthly SaaS KPI tracker that has formulas to calculate the following:
• Average Customer Acquisition Cost (CaC)
• Present Value of Customer Lifetime Value (LTV)
• LTV to CaC Ratio
• Average Months to Payback CaC
The model has a primary calculator tab that lets the user plug in static figures and see output results of the key metrics above. There is also a tracking tab for actual data. The input cells would be populated by actual data from your SaaS business and the output KPIs would display automatically based on formulas.
The tracker runs for up to a 60-month view at one time. There are also visualizations of the primary outputs over this time period. This tool is very important for SaaS companies to utilize if they are trying to get healthier financially and improve the strength of the operation.
By measuring, this puts direct pressure on improving things that make the results better. Without measuring, you are flying blind.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: JASON VARNER | SMARTHELPING
I graduated in 2011 with a Bachelors degree in Accounting. From there, I worked at a few small businesses doing financial reporting and some bookkeeping. After a few years of that, I started doing freelance financial consulting work on Elance and Upwork.

After over 400 jobs completed with a 100% success rate, I now run my own modeling/consulting practice, conduct live streams on YouTube Monday and Tuesday mornings and continue to build new financial models.
I occasionally take on custom financial modeling work.

"I have used Flevy services for a number of years and have never, ever been disappointed. As a matter of fact, David and his team continue, time after time, to impress me with their willingness to assist and in the real sense of the word. I have concluded in fact that it is not at all just a repository of documents/resources but, in the way that David and his team manage the firm, it is like dealing with consultants always ready to assist, advise and direct you to what you really need, and they always get it right.
I am an international hospitality accomplished senior executive who has worked and lived during the past 35 years in 23 countries in 5 continents and I can humbly say that I know what customer service is, trust me. Aside from the great and professional service that Flevy's team provide, their wide variety of material is of utmost great quality, professionally put together and most current. Well done Flevy, keep up the great work and I look forward to continue working with you in the future and to recommend you to a variety of colleagues around the world." – Roberto Pelliccia, Senior Executive in International Hospitality
