I've long hated the CAC/LTV framework (particularly for consumer businesses). Because it’s so tied with creating a structural dependency on Google & Facebook it isn’t only a poor framework, it can lull you into mediocrity. My raw notes over the years of addressing this topic:
Move faster. Slowness anywhere justifies slowness everywhere.
2021 instead of 2022. This week instead of next week. Today instead of tomorrow.
Moving fast compounds so much more than people realize.
If you are not leveraging *all* of the growth [motions] x [levers] combos below in your growth model, you will be disrupted by competition who will.💡Strategy is not about which 3x3 option to pick, but rather when and how to sequence them all.
