Lifetimely Profit and LTV Analytics Setup for Shopify

Shopify's native analytics tells you revenue. Lifetimely tells you profit. It connects your Shopify store to your ad platforms and cost structure to produce a daily P&L, LTV cohort analysis, predictive customer value models, and CAC payback reporting without the end-of-month spreadsheet. Shero connects the data sources, configures costs, and sets up the dashboards so profit is visible every day.

Starting monthly price for up to 3,000 orders per month

Lifetimely's M plan starts at $149 per month for up to 3,000 orders. The L plan is $299 for up to 7,000 orders. The XL plan is $499 for up to 15,000 orders. Pricing is based on order volume rather than revenue, which means the bill does not increase when AOV rises. An Amazon integration adds $75 per month on any plan.

Shopify App Store reviews for Lifetimely

Lifetimely has 460+ reviews on the Shopify App Store. It is now part of the AMP suite of eCommerce tools. Data refreshes every few hours rather than in real time brands needing intraday profit visibility should look at TrueProfit instead. Lifetimely is the right choice when LTV and retention intelligence is the primary need.

98%

Client Retention

98% of Shero's clients stay on retainer after their project closes. Lifetimely configurations need ongoing maintenance as new ad platforms are connected, COGS are updated as product costs change, and cohort windows are reviewed as the brand's repurchase patterns evolve.

Premier Partner

Shero holds Shopify Premier Partner status, one of fewer than 150 agencies globally. Lifetimely implementations connecting ad platforms, COGS, shipping costs, and Shopify order data require the analytics and Shopify platform depth that Premier status reflects.

Since partnering with Shero Commerce, our eCommerce revenue has grown by 200%. Their support and solutions have been game changers for our business.

What Lifetimely does and when it is the right choice

Lifetimely is right for Shopify DTC brands where the team needs to see true profit revenue minus COGS, ad spend, shipping, fees, and operating costs rather than just revenue. The setup involves:

  • Lifetimely installation and Shopify order data connection
  • COGS and cost structure setup: product costs, shipping, fees, and operating expenses
  • Ad platform connection: Meta, Google Ads, TikTok for spend vs revenue attribution
  • LTV cohort analysis configuration matched to the brand's repurchase cycle
  • CAC payback dashboard setup for acquisition channel comparison
  • Amazon integration setup where the brand sells on both channels

Why brands work with Shero on Lifetimely setup

Lifetimely's P&L is only accurate if the cost structure is set up correctly. Shero validates the cost setup before the team makes decisions based on the numbers.

01

Cost of goods and operating expenses set up before the first P&L runs

Lifetimely's daily P&L pulls together revenue, ad spend, and fixed costs. The accuracy depends entirely on how well the cost structure is configured: COGS per product, shipping rates, payment processing fees, and operating expenses. Shero works through the full cost structure before the first P&L runs so the numbers are trustworthy from day one.

02

LTV cohort analysis configured to show payback at the channel level

Lifetimely's LTV cohort reports show how customer groups acquired through different channels retain and increase in value over time. Shero configures the cohort windows and acquisition channel attribution so the team can see which channel produces the most valuable long-term customers rather than just the most immediate revenue.

03

CAC payback dashboard set up to guide acquisition budget decisions

CAC payback the number of months before a newly acquired customer generates enough gross profit to cover their acquisition cost is the metric that distinguishes sustainable growth from expensive growth. Shero configures the CAC payback dashboard in Lifetimely so the team can compare payback periods across channels and make acquisition budget decisions based on long-term value rather than short-term ROAS.

04

Daily P&L sent to inbox so profit is visible without opening a dashboard

Lifetimely sends a daily P&L email with revenue, ad spend, gross profit, and key movements. Shero configures the daily email recipients and metric set so the leadership team gets the numbers they need each morning without pulling a report. This connects to the broader Shopify analytics and reporting work Shero does.

05

Amazon LTV connected alongside Shopify for multichannel brands

Lifetimely's Amazon integration adds $75 per month to any plan and connects Amazon customer behavior so cross-channel LTV comparisons are possible. For brands selling on both Shopify and Amazon, seeing whether Shopify or Amazon customers generate more long-term value is one of the most important decisions in acquisition budget allocation. Shero sets up the Amazon connection as part of the Lifetimely implementation.

06

Lifetimely versus Triple Whale: profit depth versus attribution breadth

Lifetimely is the stronger choice when LTV cohort analysis, contribution margin, and daily P&L accuracy are the primary needs. Triple Whale covers more ground by combining first-party attribution, creative analytics, and real-time dashboards but is less precise on profit-based metrics. Shero implements both and recommends based on whether the team needs profit intelligence or attribution intelligence first. Both are covered under the paid media and analytics work Shero does.
