Key Takeaways

✦

Calculate your 'all-in' Cost to Acquire a Customer (CAC) by summing all marketing and sales expenses and dividing by the number of new customers acquired.

✦

Compare your CAC to the average gross margin of a project; aim for at least a three-to-one ratio (gross margin to CAC) for sustainable growth.

✦

Track the amount of 'front-end cash' collected from new customers in the first 30 days to determine your time to break even on acquisition costs.

✦

Differentiate leads into 'leads', 'marketing qualified leads' (MQLs), and 'sales qualified leads' (SQLs) to accurately measure funnel effectiveness.

✦

Measure customers acquired from each channel by quantity, project type (e.g., kitchen, bathroom), and project size (dollar volume) to understand channel value.

✦

Monitor 'influencing KPIs' like website traffic (organic/paid) and conversion rates to leads as early indicators of future sales pipeline health.

✦

Regularly review your KPIs, as channel performance can change over time, requiring adjustments to your marketing and sales strategies.
