Know What Every Client Is Really Worth
Four simple frameworks that turn your existing billing data into an LTV model you can build in 30 days, no analyst required.
You know your busiest client by name, but you probably can't name your most valuable one. Every marketing dollar, every discount, and every 'we'll make an exception' decision gets priced against a number you've never calculated. That blind spot costs service businesses more than any competitor does.
This guide gives you four named frameworks: the Napkin Number for your first LTV calculation, the Tier Map for sorting clients by real worth, the Leaky Bucket Audit for finding where lifetime value quietly dies, and the Spend Ceiling for knowing exactly what you can pay for a new client. Each comes with concrete steps, real examples from law firms, medical practices, and trades businesses, plus a week-by-week 30-day implementation plan.
Montalvo Corp builds AI-powered growth systems for legacy businesses and faith-based organizations. Everything here is written in plain business language for owners and operators, with practical ways to use Claude to do the heavy analysis so you never need a data team.
