The lifetime value, margin, sales cycle, and pipeline counts the agent can read beside ad KPIs.
Business context stores four business numbers for the signed-in tenant:
Field
How the agent should use it
Customer lifetime value
Compare a proposed acquisition cost with the value of a customer.
Gross margin
Bound a sustainable CPA. Enter the percent. The stored value is the fraction.
Sales cycle, in days
Judge whether a conversion window is long enough.
CRM qualified leads
See pipeline size. It is a count, not a bid.
Saving this page does not change an ad account. STRATEGY.md remains the source for target ROAS, max CPA, and spend limits. If a KPI required by a workflow is missing there, the workflow still stops. See Brand and strategy context.
