Direct answer: Acquiring customers costs 5–7× retention—WhatsApp reorder flows, loyalty tiers, and replenishment reminders build LTV in Indian D2C.

Retention Mechanics

Post-purchase WhatsApp sequence. Replenishment reminders for consumables. Loyalty points with tiered benefits.

LTV Calculation

AOV × purchase frequency × lifespan − CAC. Segment by channel and cohort. Invest retention budget where LTV justifies.

Churn Prevention

Win-back at 60 days inactive. Survey on cancellation. Offer pause instead of cancel for subscriptions.

India Context

COD confirmation reduces RTO. Festival campaign calendar (Diwali, Republic Day sales). Regional language WhatsApp templates.

Key Insight: Build hub-and-spoke content around E-Commerce SMO—single pages rarely win in AI synthesis or traditional SERPs.
