Customer Retention Cost (CRC)
Customer retention cost is the cost associated with retaining existing customers. It’s the investment a company makes in its customers to ensure that they continue buying products or services from them.
There are multiple ways businesses calculate this metric:
Average CRC = Total CRC for all customers / Number of active customers during period
Average Lifetime CRC per customer = Average CRC per customer * average customer lifetime
