# Profit Per Customer
Profit Per Customer is the gross profit a business earns from each customer relationship over time.
## Meaning
In the [[Hormozi Meaning Guide]], profit per customer is one of the main levers in the phrase: get more customers, make more profit per customer, and keep them longer.
Profit per customer connects [[Offer]], [[Pricing]], [[Gross Profit]], [[Continuity]], upsells, downsells, delivery quality, [[Retention]], and [[Money Model]].
For Joe's Mynd, profit per customer should not mean extracting the maximum possible from a person.
It should mean structuring value so the business can keep serving well.
## Source Of Meaning
This note is grounded in The Game podcast framing, the Acquisition.com Money Models Course, the $100M book bundle framing, and [[Hormozi Meaning Guide]].
## Relationship Over Time
This note should mature when Joe maps one client journey and asks which step creates real additional value.

## Tensions
Increasing profit per customer can make delivery more sustainable. It becomes distorted when it raises spend without raising value.
