# How Can I Track Customer Lifetime Value Inside My CRM?

You track lifetime value by summing every closed deal connected to a customer's record, letting the total update automatically as new deals close over time. On **Jestor**, this runs through relational **CRM** data aggregated on a dashboard.

Calculating customer lifetime value manually, cross-referencing every past deal in a spreadsheet, is tedious enough that most teams simply never do it consistently.

## What manual lifetime value tracking costs

- Time spent cross-referencing every historical deal for a single customer
- Lifetime value rarely calculated at all, since it's so labor-intensive manually
- No easy way to identify which customers are actually the most valuable
- Account prioritization based on gut feeling instead of real data

## How automated lifetime value tracking works

- Every deal connects to the customer's central **CRM** record
- Lifetime value aggregates automatically as deals close over time
- The total is visible directly on the customer's profile, no calculation needed
- A dashboard can rank customers by lifetime value across the whole base

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automatic aggregation removes the need for manual cross-referencing
- Lifetime value becomes a number that's actually tracked, not skipped
- Ranking by value helps prioritize account management effort appropriately
- This scales from a small customer base to a large, long-tenured one

| Manual calculation         | Automated lifetime value |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------ |
| Rarely calculated, tedious | Aggregated continuously  |
