The Realistic and Most Effective Way To Track The Performance

of Your Marketing Budget

First You Must Understand The “Lifeblood of Smart Marketing(Lifetime Resident Value, Cost Per Resident Acquisition, Profit

Per Resident Per Medium and Return on Investment Per Medium)

Average Lifetime Resident Value (LRV)

(the value, in dollars that a customer is worth to you on average. Can be done globally but should be done by service type)

Global Ex. (Avg. Stay 21 Months X Avg. Rent $3,300 = $69,300)

Cost Per Resident Acquisition (CPA)(how much money it costs you to get a new, paying resident, not

lead. Can also be done globally but should also be done by marketing medium)

Gobal Ex. ($10,000 Budget / 3 New Residents = $3,333)

Marketing Profit Per Resident (PPR)

(what each resident is worth to you after you factor in the cost to acquire them. Can also be done globally, but MUCH more

important to do by medium)

Global Ex. ( LRV $69,300 – CPA $3,333 = PPR $65,697)

Marketing Return on Investment (ROI)

(to figure this out, you need the investment for each marketing strategy, number of leads, number of residents, profit per resident

and lifetime customer value)
