Lifetime Value presentation to Yetizen

Below is a presentation that I gave yesterday on lifetime value (LTV) to the portfolio companies of YetiZen. It covers the importance of LTV, key variables (monetization, virality and retention) and how to affect them, importance outside gaming, cohort analysis and the predictive nature of LTV. Other than the final section on uncertainty, which echoes my blog post on Tuesday, the presentation is largely consistent with the one posted earlier that I gave at Groundwork Labs a few months ago. Here is the one from last night:
