Jordan Gordon, VP of Retention and CRO at Pilothouse returns to the pod to break down a concept every retention marketer thinks they understand but rarely applies: Net Present Value (NPV).

- Why NPV thinking changes your entire email strategy
- How to measure email value beyond open/click/purchase
- Ways to increase the long-term worth of every subscriber
- Where CRO fits in to boost lifecycle value
- Email as a compounding channel: what most brands miss

What to steal:

- How to spot (and increase) high NPV customers
- Why short-term ROI thinking stunts your retention
