How it works

The formula

Customer acquisition cost is everything spent on winning customers in a period divided by the customers won. Ads 3,000, salaries 4,000 and tools 500 for 50 customers is 150 each.

CAC = total acquisition cost ÷ new customers

Cost lines

Enter each kind of cost on its own line and the tool shows what share of the total it takes, which points to where the money goes.
