8. Big companies know how much they
can afford to acquire a customer.
First understand your Average Order Value (AOV)
and your Lifetime Value (LTV)
Understanding these
metrics isnât difficult, but
you will need to know
them to be able to
compete in PPC.
9. How much can you pay for a sale?
It seem reasonable that if you areselling a t-shirt for $10,
and your profit margin is 50%,
you can only spend $5
on a PPC ad marketing that t-shirt
in order to break even.

acquire a customer?
Lifetime value is the amount of revenue an average customer will generate during the span of their relationship with your business, and
itâs another easy-to-calculate metric. When you understand your LTV, you can compare the revenue generated by a customer to the costs
associated with acquiring it - and set an effective CPA.

Case Study: Starbucks
» Despite the shaky economy, Starbucks is opening new stores around the world. In 2012, Starbucks
expects to open 600 new locations internationally, about 25 percent of which will be in China. Itâs no
secret that Starbucksâ acquisition strategy is closely scrutinized and routinely copied. Using rough

buyers
Buyers use mobile to research, to
compare in-store, and to make
purchases.
Mobile search makes up 25% of all
searches.

27. Automation talk is everywhere!
The vast majority of mid-sized
companies donât use big
automation tools. You use:
An agency
An in-house solution or team
28. Yes, we need automation.
One person alone cannot effectively:
update and create ads for each product
take them down when the inventory is out of
stock
Constantly A/B test ads and incrementally
increase performance
Bid knowledgeably at the keyword level
Model keyword performance and predict
results

Also, any robot tool still needs a human to
manage it
30. We also need people.
An algorithmic product cannot effectively:
Generate highly targeted keywords for
buyers, and manage them intuitively
Write compelling ads that think like buyers
Use information from the marketing teamâs
other programs to inform strategy
Spot errors and FAILS
Hide the fact that itâs a robot, not a person
31. People (agencies/in-house
