Cool Beans is a locally owned coffeeshop that competes with two large coffee chains, Planet Euro and Frothies. Alicia, the owner, is considering two different marketing promotions and thinks that CLV analysis will help her decide the best course of action. An average specialty coffee drink sells for $3.21 and has a margin of 74%. One promotion is providing loyalty cards to her regular customers that would give them one free specialty coffee drink after 10 regular purchases. Alicia estimates that this will increase the frequency of their purchases by 20%. Currently, her customers average buying 2 specialty drinks per week. The second promotion is targeted at new customers. She would offer a free specialty drink to incoming college freshmen by providing a coupon with their orientation packages. Because of her location near the college, she expects that 590 students will come to Cool Beans for a free trial. Of those, she anticipates that 17% will become regular customers who will purchase at least one specialty drink each week. The cost of printing and distributing the coupons is $125. What would be the cost of the loyalty program?

A Starbucks and Dunkin' compete for coffee customers on Cooper Street near UTA. Each can sell a large coffee for either $1 or $2 with 60% of the price being profit. It is expected that 2000 large coffees will be bought by UTA students per month at the two coffee shops and 1000 per month by non-students. Students choose the shop with the most inexpensive coffee if possible. If the prices are the same, students are equally likely to choose either coffee shop. Non-students are always equally likely to choose either coffee shop. The goal of the coffee shops is to maximize profit for large coffees (and thereby all coffee, they hope).

Recently, a sales rep from one of the company's suppliers suggested that Whitcomb could increase its profitability by 50 percent if it introduced a second line of products, packaged dried fruit for snacks. The rep offered to do the analysis and show the company the assumptions made. When Whitcomb's management opened the spreadsheet sent by the sales rep, they noticed that there were several blank cells. In the meantime, the sales rep had taken a job with a competitor and told the managers at Whitcomb that "I can no longer advise you." Although they were not sure they should rely on the analysis, they asked you to see if you could reconstruct the sales rep's analysis.
