  3. LTV = $325-350CAC Sales = $91Early CAC Marketing/Website = $71 (estimates range from $30-70)Direct sellers: Marshal Cohen, chief retail analyst for the marketing research firm NPD, calls this kind of personal contact between seller and customer “consumerology” adding: “It’s exactly what direct branding does and that is they don’t just disengage at the point of sale. They continue the cycle all the way through.”“Companies like Avon do more network marketing rather than direct sales.”
