Recommendation

If you lack clarity about the number of unique customers you have, the health of your customer base and who your highest value customers are, you’re not alone, say Peter Fader, Bruce G. S. Hardie and Michael Ross. Many businesses have a 2D view of their profits and revenues, and fail to properly consider the additional and vital dimension – customers. Learn the basics of conducting a customer-base audit, which will empower you to spot problems and opportunities before they arrive while gaining a more complex understanding of the customer behaviors behind the numbers.

Take-Aways

  • Many firms lack clarity on who counts as a customer and customer statistics.
  • Move past the 2D analysis of your revenue, and embrace a data cube approach.
  • Analyze customer cohorts to better understand the value they bring your firm.
