Frequently Asked Questions

What conversion rate should I expect from referrals?

Referred leads typically convert 3 to 5 times better than cold traffic, with conversion rates often ranging from 10% to 30%. The exact rate depends on how well the referrer matches your target audience and the strength of the recommendation. Trust and social proof are the main drivers of high referral conversion.

How do I calculate customer lifetime value for this calculator?

Multiply your average monthly revenue per customer by the average number of months a customer stays subscribed. For example, if customers pay $50/month and stay for 14 months on average, your LTV is $700. If you do not know your exact LTV, start with 12 months of your average plan price as a conservative estimate.

What is a good referral rate for SaaS?

A healthy SaaS referral program sees 2-5% of active customers making at least one referral. Top programs with strong incentives and seamless sharing reach 10% or more. The key factors are making it easy to share, offering meaningful rewards, and prompting referrals at moments of high satisfaction.
