How Your Customers Can Be the Key to a Better Company Valuation

About the class

Firms today have the power to predict customer behavior with more accuracy than ever before. But, traditional corporate valuation techniques don’t take this into account. Professor Fader and colleagues have come up with the Customer-based corporate valuation (CBCV) to improve the process. The CBCV method incorporates predicted customer behavior along with historical financial data to more accurately determine a firm’s valuation.

After this session, you will walk away with insights on:

  • - Developing and applying a customer-focused valuation strategy for your organization
  • - Connecting marketing actions with financial outcomes in a meaningful way
  • - Case studies on how several publicly traded companies apply the CBCV method
  •  

This award-winning methodology is crucial for executives and investors to understand because of its potential to move markets and its ability to meaningfully connect marketing actions with financial outcomes.

Bonus: All webinar attendees will receive a free ebook copy of The Customer Centricity Playbook: Implement a Winning Strategy Driven by Customer Lifetime Valuethe latest book by Wharton professor Peter Fader and his coauthor, Wharton Interactive’s Executive Director Sarah Toms.
