As app marketing gets more sophisticated, there’s an increasing focus on metrics of every sort. Having a clear understanding of your unit economics is extremely important specifically customer acquisition cost (CAC) and user lifetime value (LTV) – how much a customer costs to acquire and the expected value of that customer over time from your app or game. Marketers are rightly highly focused on these metrics, but sometimes fail to see the bigger picture of what that data is telling them in terms of how to visualize growth potential.
