    The backbone of Slidebean's growth has diligently and accurately tracking our customer acquisition costs. It's really easy to track where a customer came from when you are using digital channels. Some channels, however, are much harder to measure. In this video, we'll go over the tactics we've used to track conversions over the years, and a few hacks that might be useful for harder-to-track channels like CZcams.

    Caya, thank you SO MUCH! I use you and the videos you share as my mentorship lessons. You see, I am a founder based in Africa in a country where we don't have any accelerator programs/mentorship programs for startups especially ones in a "disruptive" space like IT. So the struggle is really steep, from failure to find funding opportunities, to a paucity of resources in growing your product. I feel lucky to have a 14years experience behind me, and a chance to have traveled the world a bit. Until finding your channel, only those two were my fall-back options for decision making. But now with this channel, I do my best to check-in often for some startup tips. Thank you! and the entire team that makes this possible.

    Can someone help me with what could be a “problem statement “ for a startup that’s venturing into the entertainment sector?
    A company i work with creates digital characters for the purpose of entertainment. We are having a hard time finding a problem statement.
    Any help is appreciated
    Thanks in advance 🙏🙏

    • @prashhantsharma5179
      @prashhantsharma5179 Před 3 lety

      So think it like this. Marvel creates superheroes and entertain the world. But if they were to define their problem statement, I’m bot sure what it would be.
      Consider our business to be like Marvel, and we need to raise funding for it. Been stuck on the problem statement for the deck since sometime now

    Caya, could you also pls make a video on how to calculate customer LTV especially for ecommerce ? Main concern is how to know the customer's forecast on how maby years he would stick and his average spend. Would really appreciate if you could hear and respond to this request as it would help many entrepreneurs from your this great platform.
    Good luck with bizzzz :)))

    My startup hasn't started spending money on marketing yet so we haven't been able to run any tests to see what it costs to acquire customers and yet people are asking me what our CAC is. What should I tell them?

  • @peterkottas
    @peterkottas Před 3 lety +1

    Hey Caya, nice video as always. Quick question about CAC and your process in general. My understanding based on this video is that you don't take into account how much the customer actually brings. It is somewhat understandable as it's hard to track this across many months when he/she can upgrade downgrade or order multiple plans. However, I do feel like this can create misleading statistics. For instance, comparing 2 campaigns where one has CAC 100$ vs other has 200$ seems to have a clear winner. But what if the customer in the second campaign brings in 5 times more money compared to first. It is my understanding that you can assign value to GA goals, which could theoretically solve this. But I am curious if this is something you take into account. Cheers!

    What happens when it stops making sense and there aren’t any more effective channels? Is it a never ending cycle? Great content by the way!

    • @justjimmy8939
      @justjimmy8939 Před 3 lety

      Either you didn't test it properly or your measuring the wrong KPIs or you need a new strategy. Almost all business have access to the same channels and clearly they work. Its about how do we use them effectively.
      Also remember some channels need time to really become effective whilst other become stale if you dont swap out content introduce new campaigns or multi channel

    • @slidebean
      @slidebean  Před 3 lety

      You go back test something else!

    While google analytics and google optimize are great if your product is mostly a web based client, however doesn't work seamlessly for native apps on Android / IOS.. need to invest in solutions like appsflyer for native apps
