Hey! Business 101… but understandable and from someone who actually has done it, yay! Love the fact that he has taken comedy and performance more seriously to get us to stick around.
This is by far the most technical and most informative value you've given to date in all of your videos man. Good for you. Keep this sort of thing going for the average person and you're going to change a ton of lives.
please do a video about risk. I am currently working on analyzing the market, the customer and the competition. Next step for me is to identify the problems, goals etc.. so i can create my offer. But in the past few weeks/months i was always confronted with the term risk management. Of course i can just learn it by myself, but your explanation videos are always great. They help me out a lot during my learning phase.

OMG, loved so much this video! After an MBA in international business and nearly 3 years with my project (currently at the phase of product building) I had no idea on how to set a price for a product. Now, after understanding and putting on an Excel LTGP : CAC ratio, I can finally look at the price I would need to set my product in order to get x in profit in a given period. And since my product will probably be 1 unit with no recurrence (due to its service educational nature) I really needed to understand these variables in order to set a good price. Thank you so much!!!
I don't understand the point (6) and (7) very well. Are there any videos that go deeper in these two points? Thanks for all the value, I appreciate it!
Alex, THIS is the kind of content that slays. No fluff, down to business, knowledge on blast like an open fire hydrant in NY in July. Seriously, a discipline man could consume ten hours of this content in this format and go build an empire. Thank you, brother. These kinds of videos you do are truly life changing. I wish I knew this decades ago.
Where would you track things like LTGP: CAC / Sales velocity, etc? I understand all the concepts but I’m not sure the best approach to track and monitor.
Not sure what others are doing, but after watching this video, I use a Google Sheet to track everything on a monthly basis and then connect that to a LookerStudio report I made to visualize each metric by month, quarter, or year. These are the 8 metrics I enter into the sheet each month and the rest are formulas that calculate everything else: Total Monthly Revenue, Active Client Count (beginning of month), Total Cancelled Clients, New Clients, Fulfillment Employee Headcount, COGS, Sales Rep Headcount, and Total Acquisition Cost. I'm sure there are other great ways to track, but this is what has been working for me and it's free if you already use Google tools. Hope that's helpful!
Anyone wondering when checking LTGP : CAC ratio in a service based business why are we including salaries in CAC when we already included salaries in LTGP since in a service based company service is the goods being sold and employees are the one producing the product In a service-based business, you include salaries in both LTGP (for employees delivering the service) and CAC (for employees acquiring customers) because these represent two different activities-producing the service and acquiring the customer. This ensures an accurate calculation of profitability (LTGP) and acquisition efficiency (CAC). Without separating these costs, it would be hard to determine how much is being spent on acquiring versus servicing customers, which is crucial for evaluating the health of the business. I had this doubt hope this helps anyone with the same doubt
I’m being honest, I still struggle to fully understand my numbers. I run a multi Six Figure membership that is build purely on content marketing (I don’t run ads). How would I tweak this equation find my ratios?
Great video! How would you factor in a yearly increase (or decrease) in new customers? Let's say you sell to 10% more people every year, how would that affect your hypothetical max?
Amazing video. Exactly what I needed to learn today. When you look at a business like this it is definetly a game I like to play. It's almost as curtain as 2+2=4
Alex, I don't know if you reply to comments here but here is what I was wondering. May seem like a dumb question, but is it possible to get paying customers to my business through my you tube channel? I'm not interested in vanity or large number of subscribers, etc but not opposed to it either. Thanks for all the teachings & happy new year.
Any explanation for why Alex values a greater ratio of LTGP: CAC? Consider two businesses, their LTV is the same at $7 per customer. Business 1 has a COS of $2 & CAC of $1, giving LTGP/CAC of 5. Business 2 has a COS of $1 & CAC of $2, giving LTGP/CAC of 3. Both businesses profit is the same at $4, however LTGP: CAC is vastly different, why should this matter?
Absolutely. I've been exploring too. It seems like every strategy has its moment of glory, but finding one that consistently works is like chasing a unicorn.
I’ve done so much mental M to Alex that I am noticing new content is updated old content better visuals stories more dialed in. Does this mean I graduated?
Hi Alex, I’d like to start by saying thank you for all of the information you have made available for free. I have watched so many of your videos it is all a blur. I was looking for one in particular where you spoke about the importance of aligned incentives You gave the example of a realtor selling a house above asking. If you think it would be valuable, could you do a video of how a business, employee, and customer can have aligned incentives.
This is a masterclass in business in a free TH-cam video that universities charged $100k to learn from a professor who has never started a business.
Yes👍
This type of content is unique on TH-cam. Incredibly valuable, it doesn’t get more practical than this. Thanks Alex!
Agreed I’m trying to get my videos this visually pleasing lol soon soon
@@DadThinkBiggeryour videos are good, just work on your audio.
@@xoxoLando thank you for the tip !
That is correct.
Lmao ok you plant
00:00 - LTGP:CAC
00:53 - LTGP (Life Time Gross Profit)
06:42 - CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost)
09:00 - ROIC (Return On Invested Captial)
13:10 - Payback
16:05 - Sales Velocity x LTGP
18:45 - Sales Velocity / Churn

Is the goal to become a business owner/entrepreneur or work for one?
You don't need a degree to start a business, but the education is super helpful.

Love your content. Very practical
Nice video & tutorial 👍
Is there a playlist of these business lessons? If not I'll have to make one for my homeschooled kids when we start learning about business.
is average customer lifespan the same as customer lifetime (or the LT in LTGP)
Great addition to understand better the $100M lead
It's easier said than done. The risks are high, and success stories like that are rare. It's not a practical path for most people.
Absolutely. I've been exploring too. It seems like every strategy has its moment of glory, but finding one that consistently works is like chasing a unicorn.
Consider financial planning
Generating substantial gains at uncertain times involves experience and intricate strategies best executed by financial planners
I can understand the wisdom behind working with a professional advisor because I’m completely aware of the psychological effects of wrong investments.
How does one find a good finance advisor?? How do I know they are trustworthy and competent?
Free CFO training.. sooo good!
This is literally gold.
awesome Alex!
