The Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) is a key figure that indicates how much it costs a company to acquire a new customer. It includes all costs spent on reaching and acquiring new customers, such as advertising, sales promotion, selling costs, and customer service. This helps companies to review the efficiency of their marketing budget and evaluate whether they need to cut or increase their costs to attract more customers.
