CHECK YOUR SPEEDOMETER:
AGGRESSIVE OR CONSERVATIVE DRIVER?
IDENTIFYING YOUR APPETITE FOR RISK
57Chemeketa Wine Studies
AGGRESSIVE
WHEN AN AGGRESSIVE STRATEGY IS RIGHT FOR YOU
ROI
VOLUME
• You are looking to acquire as many new
customers as possible in an effort to
gain traction and grow wine brand
awareness.
• Or you are have fewer metric constraints
(spending our budget is more important
than measuring it!)
• This strategy means being comfortable
with a higher cost per acquisition in
exchange.
58Chemeketa Wine Studies
AGGRESSIVE OR CONSERVATIVE?
CONSERVATIVE
ROI
VOLUME
• Looking to maintain the best profit
margin possible,
• You are much more metrics-driven, or
potentially cash-strapped.
• This strategy comfortable with simply
acquiring less new customers.
59Chemeketa Wine Studies
Are you comfortable acquiring new users at a loss? (spend $10, make $5)
Are comfortable acquiring new users & breaking even? (spend $10, make $10)
If we break even or lose money now, can we monetize these users in 3,
6, 12 months?
How good were we this month at getting our existing customers to come
back and spend time on our site?
How many new users do you want to acquire, and in what time frame?
HINT: “As many as possible ASAP” is not good enough. Be specific.

77Chemeketa Wine Studies
Let’s Summarize
• Your net revenue for the year equals $14,400/1,000 emails, or
$14.40 per email subscriber.
• Assuming an average 3 year tenure for an email subscriber (LTV),
net revenue jumps to $42.40.
• Discount LTV by weighted average of Loyalty Coefficient.
• Does not include value of email for promoting winery and offsite
tasting events, etc.
78Chemeketa Wine Studies
There is a difference between knowing what
stats mean and knowing which stats are
meaningful.
It all comes down to one thing: Does the metric
help you make decisions?
