Why it's important

The blueprint allows businesses to set a clear benchmark for profitability with its CAC:AOV ratio. This KPI is a quick litmus test to understand whether the business is profitable from the first order or not.

How to improve them

Regular scrutiny of the 7-day average CAC:AOV ratio is crucial. If the numbers are off-target for 4-7 days in a row, it's time to reassess. This could involve cutting down on ad spend or revisiting any recent changes that might have affected performance.
