Example : Calculating LTV for a Coffee Subscription Brand

  • Anna runs a Shopify store called Daily Grind, where she sells a $25/month coffee subscription.
  • Her average customer stays subscribed for 10 months.
  • To calculate her customer lifetime value (LTV), she multiplies the monthly price by the customer lifespan: $25 × 10 = $250
  • That means each subscriber is worth $250 in lifetime revenue.
  • With 800 active subscribers, her projected total subscription revenue is:$250 × 800 = $200,000

Now Anna knows what each customer is worth — and she can confidently invest in retention, upgrades, and smarter growth tools like .Driftcharge
