In considering Darth Knight’s proposal for the upcoming Christmas season, Peter asked himself the following questions. Please provide the answers for Peter. Submit your answers supported by all calculations in either a “Word” or an “Excel” document in Canvas.
1. What is the lifetime value of a single customer who stays with Whoyser for the full 3 years after his/her purchase of a Whoyser inkjet printer, on promotion, during the Christmas sale?
You will find it easiest to simply calculate the value of the customer for each of the three years separately and sum the series to obtain the answer.
2. Darth’s proposal seems quite expensive to Peter. Peter would like to put some pressure on Vader to commit to a result to be achieved by the end of the promotional campaign just before Christmas. Peter wondered, how many promotional printer packages should Knights kiosk crew sell in the 10 regional malls in order for Whoyser to break-even on the incremental costs. Peter knew from experience that the kiosk crews were unlikely to cannibalize any printer sales from other sources.
Please tell Peter how many incremental printers will have to be sold under current consumer behavior conditions for him to break even on the promotion.
3. Peter also wanted to know what else could be done to improve the profitability of these low-end printers, using the CLV methodology, in addition to the kiosk promotion itself. In other words what actions could Peter influence to enhance the economic return of acquiring these new customers.
Please suggest 2 or 3 ways for Peter to increase the profitability of the promotion.
