Derivation notes
Ecommerce LTV:CAC is typically lower than SaaS due to single-transaction model. DTC subscription boxes and high-repeat-purchase categories (coffee, supplements) achieve 4-8:1. Fashion and electronics struggle to achieve 3:1 without loyalty program infrastructure. Calculated over 12-month LTV window.
